Is Bomani Jones Looking Like a Bust?

[L. Deezy]

I remember back in 2013 or so when he was the hottest up and coming star in the business. Was suppose to be bigger, smarter than Stephen A. Was a star with Lebetard, radio show, podcast, his writing was incredible.

4 years later

His radio show got cancelled
No longer on LeBetard
He's a sensitive emotional wreck on Twitter
He's a feminist
His TV show is struggling to get launched
I haven't heard his name buzzing in years


He might have to pull a LeBron and join PTI or First Take to get sone glory

He shouldnt have ever dissed Nas.. now look at him

Smh

if this new show with Pablo Torre is a bust, then his run at ESPN might as well be over.

it's supposed to premiere in April in that new studio in NY, but you know how it goes with new construction.

A bunch of nikkas mad for no reason in here. Won't deny Bomani has a fragile ego, but y'all nikkas get up in arms when he says some shyt you don't agree with (usually about women) and act like he's wronged you personally.

Everybody gets "up in arms" when you say shyt they don't agree with hell you talking about? Hell look at you chastising some over the women's stuff. I admit the woman stuff is annoying for me but its moreso because I don't do that stuff. Most people don't want folks preaching to them about shyt they ain't doing. I know they don't want preaching period but even more when you ain't doing the stuff they preaching about. I'd just fast forward past it but I can see how that turns some off. Look how a lot of people reacted to the Cosby "pound cake" speech for similar reasons.

Except ESPN put money behind both
(His and Hers, The 6 and Bomani's new show)

​

How as the Trump heat changed things behind the scenes tho?...

You'd have to think some things are changing... no?..

Bomani is sharp and usually comes with interesting perspectives. fukked with his show just thought it needed more energy and less calls. nikka took my fav producer Shannon up out of NC... I hope he will be doing the show with Pablo...

I have to believe that ESPN is going through a culture shift right now and that’s holding him back.

I don’t believe in the studio isn’t ready excuse. Espn moved First take ( with Skip, Dana and Jay Crawford) to NYC from Connecticut way faster than this.

Well if you don't believe the studio excuse you're just on some emotional chick shyt. You just like my friend I'm always calling out because he he always believing and thinking but never knowing. Multiple people have said the studio ain't finished being built and its also holding up other shows but you still don't believe the stuff about the studio? Straight emotional shyt that is wrong as shyt smh.

I agree with the calls esp,when he got lazy with that when did you quit football stuff. It was cool for a day or two but once it became a staple it was wack as shyt to me. Maybe others liked it.

Difference between Hill and Jones is that Hill will put herself out there and stand behind what she said where as Jones will imply and try to beat around the bush instead of just stating the obvious without looking like he’s going against the grain..

Bomani aint never had to talk back anything he's said, cause he knows that being a black male offers him no protection.

imagine if Bomani had've wrote an article about how rooting for the Celtics was the equivalent of supporting Hitler ...it wouldn't be no #IStandWithBomani

 

[DropTopDoc]

nikkas are a trip on this board

I’ve never seen that nikka switch up

He always stands behind his opinions

He does seem a little sensitive at times

He does speak on women issues a lot, but that could based on his mother’s views/influences, we all have something we are passionate about

I respect his grind/hustle

I’m thinking that ny check must have been big to make him leave Miami

I’m sure it’s a reason the show is delayed, but I’m sure it’s not the way left field shyt you all are saying

FT still in Bristol
Thats why SAS and Max are always on remote, Molly usually the only one in Bristol.
SAS wants FT at the new studio in NY when it opens

as i said earlier in this thread, golden boy greeny has had his show delayed too because of this. we just skippin facts for "beliefs" now...even when show like FT and their great white hope are having the same hold up?

these delays, IMO, are due to espn's budget issues. when you got your paper right, a big corp gets shyt built, especially a studio set, they're not building a building.

He has to beat around the bush because he’s on a sports forum.. he’s better suited for the political arena

 

[Paper Boi]

is there any evidence his radio show got cancelled other than a clay travis tweet?
