Programming Correction:
- The Rockies played the Diamondbacks 19 games at a split of 8 wins and 11 losses. Not 30 as Wilcox had portrayed.
- The ending segment that Wilcox spoke on was about Fox Sports web hits were sourced from a tweet from Sports Illustrated’s Richard Deitsch. The numbers Deitsch reported were, “Fox Sports Digital page views for August 19-Sept. 17: 16.7 million. From May 27-June 25: 143.9 million.”
- The reference Wilcox made in the Bend The Knee NFL segment was about the notable “no convictions,” that were handed in multiple cases of fatal shootings of African-Americans. (01:06:29)
