:what:

Breh, Fox Sports One lets you say whatever u want on Social Issues, especially pro black ones, look at Shannon Sharpe.
Shannon Sharpe is a hall of fame NFL alumni. :stopitslime:

Jemele Hill is an overachieving sports writer.

Yall love equating all types of talent.

Sharpe will ALWAYS command more as an asset and as talent.

She suggested fans should boycott the Cowboys sponsors.

Not smart... on your 2nd strike ?

she is more useful and visible at ESPN than being fired


Those sponsors are probably espn advertisers too; can't openly criticize the nfl at espn (probably every cable network), might as well fire yourself:francis:

Free speech has nothing to do with being reprimanded by your employer for publicly speaking out against their business interests.

ESPN pays the NFL billions of dollars to air their product. Due to their contract with the NFL, sponsors pay ESPN a shyt ton of money to have their advertisements come on during games. You don't want an employer pissing off the people you pay and/or the people that pay you.

ESPN has canceled a tv show, Playmakers, because it showed the NFL as a place that had drug abuse, steroids, disregard for player's health and other shyt the NFL didn't want to be seen and they put pressure on them to cancel it.
They canned Bill Simmon's ass for going at Roger Goddell.

But hey, those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it :manny:

How do YOU have her back?

By typing "ayo fukk ESPN" on a hip hop message board?

:mjlol:

By refraining from using their website and/or apps. By letting them know publicly on social media that I don't agree with their stance or actions. Even letting her know, through social media, that some of us will stand behind here through this. I don't know what else you want me to say.

I will NOT throw her under the bus for that article link that she retweeted. That's another issue, for another day.

By your logic we shouldn’t support Kaep either. Kaep worked for the NFL and should of known what was going to happen. Whenever you Black and make a stand it is a possibility of retaliation. Whether you like her or not, it is respectable that she is still speaking her mind.
Keep is talent who did something that affects AT MOST 2 minutes of the entire game.

Jemele Hill is a TV personality who most the audience already resents.

Play your strengths. Jemele did not play her strengths.

You wanna speak your mind? Aiiiiiight. Theres a reason Michael Smith never draws that fire. Remember that :usure:

When has Kap ever promoted something that negatively portrayed black men? Because that’s exactly what she did
We are talking about two different issues. Chicago argument is, she works for a major corporation, and she is not calling out white supremacy in a smart way. Insinuating that she is getting what she deserves. My point is Kaep also worked for a major corporation and the same argument can be made against him. The Black men point is entirely separate from whether or not she is being smart or not.

KAP DIDNT TELL ANYONE TO BOYCOTT HIS EMPLOYER
NOR HIS EMPLOYERS PARTNERS.

VERY WEAK COMPARISON.

SHES NOT VERY BRIGHT.
:devil:
:evil:

It is not a weak comparison at all. You just don’t like her. Kaep didn’t tell employers to boycott, but what he did made white people and his employers(NFL owners) just as upset if not more. Why do you think he is out of the NFL?
