They turned him into GSW's bitch boy the last 2-3 years, so I am not shocked there.wildcats20;1850696 wrote:Mark Stein has also been let go. Big name NBA guy. -

The Sports Reporters getting cancelled is bull. Such a great Sunday morning show, their parting shots were golden today. Basically slammed First Take -

Well I can safely say this is the biggest name to be apart of these layoffs... John Clayton has been let go.

BR1986FBI can't stand Clayton, because he's a Steeler shill, but that commercial was classic.

Now Mike Wilbon has gone all in on defending Jemele Hill. Didn't see him standing up for Linda Cohn.friendfromlowry;1871669 wrote:In an ideal world, Jemelle Hill AND Trump would be fired. -

Well, since she had anger about someone (in this case, Trump) and, therefore, went on a Twitter rant against him, she apparently is trying to be the new "presidential" as defined by Trump, so she might be angling to be on the D's 2020 ticket, which would at least get her off ESPN!friendfromlowry;1871669 wrote:In an ideal world, Jemelle Hill AND Trump would be fired. -

Curt Schilling, who is ultra-conservative does something controversial....he gone. Jemele Hill calls the POTUS a white supremacist and, surprise, surprise, she's still there.Commander of Awesome;1871832 wrote:lol how's that? If anything it shows the opposite. -

Schilling was warned about his meme-posting, ignored the warning and was then fired. Hill was warned. If she ignores the warning and doesn't get fired, you will then have a point.BR1986FB;1871834 wrote:Curt Schilling, who is ultra-conservative does something controversial....he gone.

I'd like to verify if this story is true (pretty hard to do), but if it is ESPN definitely went full retard if they were afraid to sub in white (OMG!!!) anchors for a day. Also, Linda Cohn got suspended for far less. She didn't even show any political leanings, she simply stated ESPN needs to cut out the political bullshit, because the viewers aren't tuning into a fucking sports channel for that.Commander of Awesome;1871832 wrote:lol how's that?

Overall though, fuck ESPN. I am happy to see anything that sheds negative light on them and forces them to lose ratings/money. Fuck them.
Hill should have been fired a long time ago for having no talent and having dumbass hot takes. She is the worst. I have yet to meet one person who is a fan.Heretic;1871836 wrote:Schilling was warned about his meme-posting, ignored the warning and was then fired. Hill was warned.

Edit: Hill will most likely ignore the warning. She kept the tweets up as a fuck you to ESPN. I have always said Hill has something on the execs at ESPN, because she should have been fired a lonnnnnnng time ago. -

On my commute home, I listen to sports talk and one of the local guys is ultra-liberal and keeps sneaking his "I don't want to make this political (cough-Trump sucks-cough)"" bullshit in all of the time. I really don't care if he likes or dislikes Trump, Clinton, etc. just don't be shoving that shit down my throat when I want to listen to SPORTS. It's a turnoff.
Same with actors/actresses. Its' like "shit, I USED to like you as an actor/actress but now that I know you're a dumbfuck, trying to push your political agenda down my throat because you live in 'make believe', you can kindly gfy."
