ESPN clearly doesnt give a shite about knowledgable sports information.....so I'd rather eye-easy talent talk nonsense than listen to screaming ebonics and the such....

I find it tough to believe that nobody here watches her and yet knows all of her crazy shite that she spouts off.


There is this nifty thing called the internet where you hear about shite people do without actually watching them do it real time. You should check it out sometime.

if you are black, though I did see a few black guys get cut, or a white woman with nice legs you're golden at ESPN apparently.

black women are treated like the 2nd coming apparently

with the reports saying Russillo will be taking on a smaller role, his radio show might be done


Kanell got the ax today. Rumors are Russillo did too but not 100% yet. Adnan Virk is hosting their show today...

Boomer is a well known Ebonic scholar. Astute observation there Cole.

Almost change the channel during live games when those f'ing commercials of her and M Smith dancing and whatnot come on.... can honestly say I've avoided watching a single second of any programming shes a part of.



The worst was after The Masters on Thursday and Friday ended SC6 would come on. Talk about a culture change.

I'm saying I'd rather Ponder get that spot then someone like Jamelle Hill or SAS...which seems to be the direction ESPN is headed......
But thanks for trying

Sarah Spain should go, but her constant whining about women's rights probably makes her a definite keep.

There's too much porn online for me to devote precious time and resources to make any effort reading about shite that I would presumably despise.

Good for you if you've got the energy for that, though. You frickers know more about this lady than her own mother, it appears.
