Re: John Clayton out at ESPN

So ESPN/Disney axed an old white straight rich guy?

Is anyone really shocked?

Espn sucks and I couldn't stand their politics for a long time. They're going down.

Re: John Clayton out at ESPN

I only watch ESPN for live sports. I tried to give FS1 (219 on DirectTV) a chance but their highlight show was just as bad or worse than SportsCenter. I haven't even watched that channel in months, it's on my boycott list too since they hired Skip Bayless

Re: John Clayton out at ESPN

You know, I find it absolutely PERFECT timing that the most popular player in the NBA has offensive graffiti sprayed on his home and it just so happens to be on the most dead news day, the day before the Finals start. So now we get to hear LeBron's racial manifesto and everyone's hot take and voila bing bang boom ala peanut butter sandwiches buckle up buckaroo because we got our big ol' headline of the day!!!

Meanwhile, they haven't found the perpetrator and police are still investigating the incident. Well golly jeepers what a shocker that is!

Today's fake news, setup and staged to promote the narrative and strike up the conversation. And I'm not usually the conspiracy type.

Re: John Clayton out at ESPN

This discussion reminds me of a quote in an essay I wrote years ago...


I always turn to the sports pages first, which records people's accomplishments. The front page has nothing but man's failures.

- Earl Warren, Chief Justice, U.S. Supreme Court



Quote is nearly rendered useless with #fakenews #polarizednews today...

I never knew that he had a ponytail until his commercial.
