The hosts then shift to discussing a controversial moment from the weekend – an attempted coup led by West to overthrow Foster, the league commissioner. It was a close call, with a 6-6 vote, but ultimately, Foster retained his position. Owen presses AJ on where he stood during the vote, with AJ admitting he wasn’t sure but praised Foster’s leadership while remaining open to change.
