Are we arguing that he ISNT a deadbeat? Or that him being a black conservative makes that off limits?


From what I remember Bill Clinton is a deadbeat dad at least one time over, has that been off limits for 30 years because he’s a white liberal?

How ironic is it that the MSB constantly complains about how “everything is racist now”

Is that any different than all if the scumbag politicians talking about going green but jetseeting around the world private jets and in convoys of cars?
So you're saying that Reilly is calling out Walkers strict Christian family values hypocrisy & this has nothing to do with race ?

There really is no shame with these people. They've created a world where almost everything is racist and now want to hold their hands up and cry foul when one of their allies does the exact thing that they would have previously declared as racist, all because the speaker is an ally and the target is a conservative. Being a progressive in America means never having to say you're sorry.

Is that what is happening here?

More like the OP ran here to start this thread about 30 seconds after the Tweet went out and clearly didn't know the backstory.

You're acting like there is some sort of outrage over the Tweet...this thread is longer than the fricking replies.

Log off.

Since Rick Reilly likes to make jokes about politicians families, surely he has made a joke about Joe Biden’s grandson who has a crackhead dad and a stripper mom.

Then you should know he would be the very first guy (maybe behind the legit crazy person Olbermann tbf) to be screaming about racism if someone said that about LeBron or some some bastion of progressivism.

Like I said, it's not racist, but it the definition of being a huge hypocrite it today's climate, and his bitch arse shouldn't be able to get away with it.

I don't care, has nothing to do with what I posted or the topic at hand.

Good, we agree.

So it isn't racist, but we should still treat it as if it was?

You should totally show off your stunning bravery and try to cancel him too.

Reilly is a bigger hack than Peter King. His schtick wore out 20 years ago.

That makes Walker a hypocrite and likely a bad father (assuming he has no meaningful relationships with the kids and doesn't support them financially). Criticizing him for those things seems fair if it is true.


100% but this tweet doesn't happen if Walker wasn't running for office as a republican. Outside of that, the woke mob would destroy Reilly for taking a shot like this.

But he made the jab at the man due to that man's actions. The man happens to be black. He wasn't lumping the race in on it. He was being a dick to a man. He picked on an individual. The individuals skin color is irrelevant and had nothing to do with the point he intended.



This is a completely fair statement and I agree with it.

Now pretend somebody white and conservative said this about George Floyd, any NFL Player, rapper, etc.

Rick Reilly is one of the biggest jokes ever forced on the public by the sports journalism world. The people finally spoke loudly enough for all of his major jobs to dry up. Too bad he banked a lot of money before that happened.




Yeah, cause otherwise he could just get government handouts for everything?

Hate successful people much?

If Herschel Walker was a Democrat, you'd be calling for Reilly's job and screaming that this was hate speech. White leftists are self-loathing AF.




Is your back bone so weak that you will cry racist just because democrats would?

Whether it is or it isnt racist theres more than a few of yall who would be bending over backwards to call Trump a racist if he made that same tweet to a black democrat running for office. Its on the exact same level as the comment made by Josh Donaldson when he told that crybaby Tim Anderson "hey whats up Jackie?"
