Please elaborate.

I really want to know who the CEO of one of the biggest media companies on the planet is a "left wing extremist," because I'm guessing you don't become a CEO if you're not a pathological capitalist.

i vaguely remember when she started showing up on ATH. I wasn't impressed.

Jackie Mc had a much more versatile background of sports knowledge.

Did you want him to say it would be ignorant to fire the person who single-handedly brings in more angry white male eyeballs to his network than everyone else combined because they just can't quit hate-watching her?

Would that have made your racist arse feel better?

Da Fuq? Seen what? I still don't get this. Is this all about a few loons in a parade? Where has slavery returned? Where is the government oppresing, where are the police dogs rounding up black people...spraying them with fire hoses?

You have a point, if she didn't say all that bullshite who would give 2 shits about her and her damn show much less actually watch it? ESPN's receiving tons of pub about this and as the mantra goes "no such thing as bad publicity" with this context

That's a lot of context.

I don't care for Hill because her takes on sports don't do anything for me.


Her being employed by ESPN has nothing to do with sports and nothing to do with her opinions on sports.

She's a she, she's very left wing, and she's black. Those are her qualifications and those characteristics are the only reason she's employed by ESPN.

What rights are being stripped from black people that this dude is talking about? If anything, they're being favored more due to discrimination laws and affirmative action which is complete bullshite if people actually read a damn CONSTITUTION.

You've been watching fake news. The police have started rounding up and executing black people. I saw it on the liberalsforallah.infonet website.

What you fail to realize from your air conditioned upbringing is that she was sweating outside to make something of herself.

He ain't stupid

He knows what he's doing and he's giving an answer that the people ESPN is targeting with the SC6 stuff will love.

Anyone who thinks he's stupid hasn't been paying attention to what ESPN has become over the last few years.

There is no getting that.

This guy isn't all there. Dude comes off as one of those SJWs who cries during debates with people who don't agree with him.
