More Cuts at ESPN

[SnarkShark]

Your age is showing. There are certain things you learn about life and people that only years can give you. I used to think and believe the same as you when I was younger and knew so much less. If you can listen to that man and tell me that's a mentally stable person, then you just don't see it or understand it. I've seen enough to know better.

Explain it to me. Don't give me this vague bullshirt.

Let's say for a second you are correct. Why would mental health issues automatically disqualify someone from courage?

Explain it to me. Don't give me this vague bullshirt.

Obviously all transgender people are mentally ill.

The "ESPN is liberal" argument always boils down to three things: the Caitlyn Jenner award, the Curt Schilling firing, and the fact that they have black people on the payroll. It's not a terribly convincing case.

Don't take this the wrong way, but it doesn't get much more moronic than that.

Adrian Wojnarowski apparently got a slew of NBA dudes fired at ESPN. That's some Machiavellian shirt right there.

I simply don't get people's obsession with breaking scoops. Who. Gives. A. fork. Has anyone accurately assessed how it benefits the bottomline to be credited with a scoop five minutes before someone else has it or it's announced in a PR release?

Give me the long-form work of Henry Abbott over scoops any day.

Woj really did that?

[JC]

Another good one, you're consistent.

 

[CD Boogie]

Woj really did that?

He didn't respond to a request to comment, but those scalps are on the wall.

Still waiting for that explanation, @Doc Holliday.

I gave you my answer. Tough shirt if you don't like it. Move along sprout.

You're going to call a trans woman "mentally ill" and insist on calling her by her prior male name, and run away when called out for it? Just say what your issue really is with her. It'll make you feel better.

Don't be cowardly. You're a straight shooter. A truth-teller.
