ESPN "analyst" Monica McNutt mistakes a Barry Sanders jersey for a Shedeur Sanders jersey

[Heretic]

McNutt was 10 when Sanders retired. She’s from Maryland so she probably didn’t grow up in a Lions household, and she was born the year Sanders got drafted so she would’ve been a toddler for almost half his career.

If you're a face on ESPN you're gonna be held to a higher standard than just some girl that occasionally watches sports with her man. You gotta at least recognize the legends, you can't be on TV being that wrong.

 

[Spidey Man]

Stupid mistake and deserves all the jokes possible, but she's always been on point during Knicks coverage so she's good in my book. She got next after Clyde retires.

 

[CHICAGO]

Shes watches sports also...how you think she even knows who shedeur is...she doesn't just do wnba, she also does local Knick games here and ESPN games.

YOU DONT HAVE TO WATCH
THE ACTUAL GAME OF FOOTBALL
TO KNOW WHO SHEDDUER IS.

YOU BRINGING UP BASKETBALL GAMES
SHE DOES CHANGES NOTHING

that's a problem, both on her and the network. If she had a brain fart, not a good look but it happens. But ESPN needs to stop assuming everyone on their network can be put wherever and it doesn't matter if that ain't in your job description. At least with McNutt she was on Around the Horn so she has at least some knowledge of other sports, so I'll chalk it up to simply fukkin up.

Agreed she just fukked up.


But she will get cooked these next couple of days.

 

[Rekkapryde]

Mina wouldn't have fukked that up

The have WWE segments. They have golf segments, hockey segments, soccer segments.

Oh I see. Because she’s black she has to know about all of the black players who ever played the game ?

 

[K-Deini]

Yo remember in the 90’s when we had fat Italian MF’s one chili dog away from a heart attack on ESPN but they could tell you who hit a home run in the 5th inning of a game played on a random Saturday in 1965?

What happened?

For some reason nowadays people like to make excuses for folks not knowing shyt on what they speak on. Even when it's their profession.

 

[King_Kamala61]

This is what happens when ESPN cuts back on funds to hire competent people on their staff

That's a DEI hire


Ain't no way she qualified past non-football journalism to work a sports show.

Go on set wearing a #6 Celtics Jersey.

Monica McNutt: "Aye so the jersey, Lets get into because Obviously this ties to one D'Angelo Russell"​

 

[Rekkapryde]

Probably thinks she bought an Eagles"Will Smith" jersey

They got druski on first take

 

[jadillac]

25 I'd give a pass, but 35? Barry was dancing every Thanksgiving when we were little

Funny thing is, Druski would literally be the one who shouldn't know Barry Sanders. Lol

 

[JackRoss]

What she said was dumb but Druski on sports shows? They minus well bring one of us on the show. There is a bigger issue. Shaq saying a soft injury prone T-Mac to win just like he won with Kobe is an issue. I love TMac and I'm nowhere near a Kobe fan or stan but TMac was a very superficial superstar. I'd bet TMac and Duncan wouldn't win shyt. I'm not saying TMac is soft but we was a low budget KD. EXTREMELY GIFTED but even with better teammates TMac wasn't on shyt. Now Shaq and AI going for at least 4 in a row. Fukk you I remember 2000s NBA

Druski being on there is a bigger problem than the host of the show mistaking a Barry Sanders jersey for something Shadeur related?

That’s just ESPN being cheap. The wanna plug in people wherever.
