Kiper is a doofus and should have been taken off the set in a straitjacket, especially yesterday, but I promise you, with metaphysical certainty, that he didn’t personally write that headline. It doesn’t work that way.

I'd wager that he dictated it.

Also he only gave out one A+ grade. to whom.... the Cleveland Browns

He makes Stephen A seem like a brain surgeon

I worked in the media for 48 years. Whether in print or online, writers don’t write headlines. Period.

The grade is stupid. I don’t know who’s crazier, Kiper or Bayless.

Now imagine you went to school and worked hard and that was your goal to have that career track only for ESPN to hire a guy like Kendrick Perkins who cant even talk and when he does say something its almost incomprehensible


I've said it before there are two guys in the smallest media market in the NBA, David Wesley and Antonio Daniels are each 10 times better than Kendrick and that may be under selling it. ESPN could hire either one of those guys and actually get good and insightful takes on the NBA. But they have a guy who struggles with the English language so he already comes across as unintelligent, then follows it up with horrible takes.

Watching NFL Live now Mel is saying the same things: A+ grade for the Browns!!!

So far less histrionics but still dripping with bitterness for other teams and players especially towards Dart.

Seems very mentally unstable.
