ESPN is getting roasted on Twitter for their auction sketch

During their fantasy football marathon, they kept cutting away to people bidding on players. Auction leagues are popular but I was shocked that they would go along with the bit after this weekend. A bunch of white dudes bidding on black guys 
Expect an apology soon. Really funny that ESPN goes out of their way to cater to left leaning sports fans and still make mistakes like this.

I love it when companies try their hardest to pander, still frick up, and get killed by the people they so desperately want to like them.

It's idiotic for anyone to get offended by it, but that won't stop people.
Some tard got offended at a baseball game because the starting pitcher had 3 strike outs.

So they're auctioning off a picture of Odell?

I'm surprised the SJWs haven't tried to shut down fantasy for this.
Every time I read a comment about "I own X player" I just picture some SJW getting triggered and wanting to shut down fantasy sports because of slavery.

They'll have to restrict themselves to hockey-only fantasy auctions.

And there will be no one to defend them. The reasonable people who would defend them have long left.

This board has no idea how much they love ESPN.

People being too sensitive on this. I saw the little sketches and thought they were corny but never had any kind of racial thoughts about it.

Heh, nothing like getting your hand bit when you feed rabid dogs on a regular basis.

Wait is there actual outrage or is this conjecture on your part ?
Posted on 8/15/17 at 10:14 am to hendersonshands
Type in "espn auction" on twitter. Quite a few people outraged, I think Shaun King is hyperventilating.

I don't understand what the big deal is....?

Social Media + Obsession Over Race = This Country Losing it's minds

Not surprised at the responses here. The usual "get over it" & "too sensitive". Your prospective isn't the same, so of course you wouldn't understand how people feel about this.
Why do AA's have to get over slavery and Jim Crow, but I see car stickers all the time saying never forget 9/11 & we are taught to remember the Alamo?
