He sounds like a bad stereotype of a white guy trying to sound black. I understand that he is actually black, but he clearly feels insecure about his standing and is trying to make up ground.



yeah, he's been around a long time, I remember he used to do that NBA show on ESPN probably about 30 years ago and I remember thinking the same thing, a black dude who sounds like a white dude trying to sound like a black dude.

Racist piece of shite. Google his comments on police escorting him to the games.

Didn't ESPN fire his long time partner that propped him up ? Guess he wasn't fake ghetto enough.

He used to not really be this way. He was like a younger version of the late, great John Saunders covering college football, hockey, and basketball for ESPN, and he was a total pro.

Ever since 2020, it seems like he's doing a caricature from Dave Chappelle's racial draft.

There are there are a lot of annoying announcers, especially the color commentator former athletes, like Romo and RG3. Mark Jones is good enough.

Some of you are so obsessed with black guys. It is just strange.

He used to do that NBA Today show on ESPN in the 90's and I found him then very much like he still is today on that show. Would always usher in the show referencing the "NBA jam posse" and I would always chuckle because it sounded so forced.

Murray just hit a nice reverse layup on the Cs and Mark Jones yelled "a little bit of jelly by Jamal!"

An actual Mark Jones tweet from 2020:

quote:

Saturday at my football game I’ll tell the police officer on duty to “protect” me he can just take the day off. Fr.

I’d rather not have the officer shoot me because he feared for his life because of my black skin or other dumb ish.

I’m not signing my own death certificate


He's a worthless piece of shite

Jesus, I’ve been in Law Enforcement 25 years. I wasn’t aware that I was supposed to be doing that……and I live and work in NOLA. That’s funny, my working class neighbors that I live next to in Algiers since Katrina don’t seem to share his sentiment. Must be all that racist American money he makes.
