Must-watch TV

 

[Axum Ezana]

[Big Blue]

That's terrible business. For a network that wants to be TMZ so bad, this makes no sense.

 

[jadillac]

I'm down to watch......









.......only if they perform the 3rd verse.

Well, this is relevant news because cacs are keenly aware of the power of showing black defiance on television. They're not going to allow themselves to be a conduit for showing an image that blacks can rally around.

Think about it. If they showed him not standing for the anthem, tons of people on Twitter and on this board would change their avatar to the image of him sitting. That's powerful and ESPN has decided they're not going to be complicit in showing it.

What's all that rubbish militant talk you were saying ??

 

[THE MACHINE]

The fact that ESPN announced they won't air it, says more about them than the fact they aren't going to air it.

But please believe the show will open with Tirico and Gruden talking about the reaction Kaepernick got by sitting. They might even show clips

edit: just saw the edit that they're showing it

Listen Chad, I'm gonna need you to leave me alone. I know you burned your mayonnaise sandwich and you're upset right now, but I can't help you with that. I suggest you take your dog for a walk and let him lick you on the mouth to blow off some steam. I know your kind likes to do that.

How is this any less important than actual sports though?

One of the most-discussed moments of Week One of the NFL season will be the national anthem before the Monday night 49ers-Rams game, whenColin Kaepernick is expected to continue his protest and remain seated while other players are standing. But that moment won’t be televised.

ESPN told Richard Deitsch of Sports Illustrated that it normally does not show the national anthem for the late game of the Week One Monday Night Football doubleheader and won’t show it this year either.

Does anybody in this thread have reading comprehension?

I knew they'll show it one way or another that's a no brainer. Clearly some of us are not fully aware of how things work. ESPN would never let an opportunity like this go to waste.
