ESPN really bringing down the hammer.....

ESPN really bringing down the hammer.....
ESPN repeatedly warned Curt Schilling to stop political rants and he didn't after being warned/written reprimand on 4 different occasions. If Hill does it after today, then she will meet the same fate as they get only one free pass now.
Doubt it.
But she should be fired for being a horrible broadcaster. Fine, they want a black woman in that role. Got no problem with that. Sage Steele can run circles around her AND she has shown competency with the English language.
And then last month went ahead and criticized ESPN for its on-air politics:

Couldn't date a chick who could potentially dunk on me in a pick up game. Would change the dynamic of the relationship indefinitely.Cari Champion FTW
No real need. Send letters and emails to the advertisers. Tell them you don't care what ESPN's political slant is, you don't want to see it on the air. Tell them you don't tune into any sports channel to hear politics, and until ESPN gets rid of the political crap, you'll be watching Fox Sports.Burn it down!!

I cut out espn with sling on apple tv.
This right here:
But why do people tune in to ESPN? “In my opinion, it’s not to hear about Charlottesville,” Steele told "The Dan Patrick Show." Rather “it’s about the games, it’s about the highlights. Let’s show some standings. Let’s talk about what’s coming up tonight,” adding that “I’m just old, I guess, old-school.”
Steele, who has never been afraid to voice her opinions, hopes to see ESPN’s style revert to the days when Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann hosted "SportsCenter" -- and coverage revolved around sports.
“As a viewer, I want to see the highlights, I want to hear from Rich Hill,” said Steele. “That’s what I want as a viewer, and that’s what I believe most viewers want when they turn to ESPN, is less of this.”
No real need. Send letters and emails to the advertisers. Tell them you don't care what ESPN's political slant is, you don't want to see it on the air. Tell them you don't tune into any sports channel to hear politics, and until ESPN gets rid of the political crap, you'll be watching Fox Sports.
If the advertisers start applying pressure, it will be 1,000x more effective than any direct viewer pressure and ESPN will fold like a cheap suit. Their own stockholders will demand it -- or else.
And then they pick NYC for Gameday next weekend. smfh
laughed. He probably doesn't know what a football is.Probable guest picker Bill DeBlasio.
Go suck Kirk's buckeye.Everyone here hates ESPN, they hate Kirk Herbstreit and Rece Davis is a total prick. And then we all get all pissed when they don't bring their Gameday Show to one of our games. Something doesn't really add up there.
