Some good stuff in here:

"The word ‘politics’ has become too all-encompassing,” SportsCenter host Jemele Hill said on the Sports Illustrated Media Podcast with Richard Deitsch in February. “Mike and I aren’t … breaking down the Affordable Care Act. That’s politics. Understanding somebody’s right to speak out against injustice, oppression, and police brutality, isn’t a political matter. It’s right or wrong."

He's 100 percent correct

Man fukk that nikka.

I ain't SAS biggest fan but I ain't gonna mock/laugh/call for a black man making good money who, like him or not, worked his ass off to get where he is and STILL works his ass off to remain as relevant as he is just because the good ol boys and gals lost jobs yesterday. Cry me a fukking river.

im surprised so many cuts that got posted on twitter were all postive anyone notice that? Sounded like before the cuts ppl were begging espn to keep there job and take paycuts.... I bet a few will come back for a paycut just cause ESPN is considered the top of the mountain in sports media and once you leave its a downhill drop outside certain jobs. Getting into Any sporting event constantly meeting celebs and im sure dudes were smashing broads on the reg just based on being on tv and leaving that to become a local news guy is.....:francis:

Espn is finally at least admitting they dont give a fukk about hockey they should cut barry melrose bum ass

sage survived day 2 of the cuts smh
darren rovell survived smh
ryen rusillo getting a reduced role while his girl role is expanding:dead:

surprised they cut ed, andy katz and a few of those dudes

cassie hubbert survided:whew::whew:

nba wins only 2 cuts:umad::umad:



im glad ethan got the booth tho fakkit always talked cocky as fukk just cause he covered the wariors he acted as if he was part of the team.

most of those cut will get another job quick ppl at other networks may wanna call the bosses and make sure there still in good status....

I'd hold off the NBA celebration until after free agency.coverage is over breh.

"We want to talk credentials?" he asked. "Name the time and place and I’ll show up. Tell me what level I didn’t work on. I worked as an intern. I worked at a high school. I worked at a college newspaper while I was taking 18 credits while on the basketball team. I climbed up this business. I’m an outspoken, loud ass mouth, black man. Who the hell do you think gave me an opportunity? I’m sorry, sir, this was earned, and every damn penny that I earned, that I have been blessed to have received in my career, I have earned." -Stephen A. smith
