There's a football game on NBC, and y'all watching this? What happened to "I hate ESPN?"

Well for me I feel like it's important to understand the community around me and learn their point of view to be able to relate and sympathize. But if it's going to be a complete bashing on the police than there's no goal to understand on the side that is anti-police.

Dude it's ok. I'm black and I'm steering clear of that crap

LOL, Did you see the ad ESPN ran for this show? No way it was going to be fair.

I didn't see any of the ads for it or anything and was hoping it was going to be somewhat fair. I've seen a couple things since the riots that have been very informative for me. This isn't one of those things

What was unfair about what Marcellus Wiley was just saying?

I applaud you for doing that

Haven't watched it yet. I ended up recording it. I'll look to see if it gets decent reviews and I'll go back and watch it.

Mike & Mike got into this a few mths ago, the idea of ESPN bringing politics into the sports world. Their take was that it is now a part of American culture...sports & politics mixing...and it only makes sense for a network like ESPN to have programs on it. My question then & now is that why does ESPN only have liberals like Hill & Jones presenting their points of view on a political sports issue? Note that Curt Schilling was fired and he was a conservative. And yes I know why he was fired. Hill has made several similar mis steps yet is always ESPN go to person for sports/political discussions. Jay Bilias is the only ESPN "expert" on the issue of paying athletes & he is as liberal as any one out there.
