Is Shannon sharpe liked on here? I seem to remember him getting deep into racial stuff but I generally agree with everything he’s said lately. At least from what I have seen.

Stephen A Smith isn't going anywhere. I know its not popular to say it here, but I actually like SAS. He has a pretty good podcast, he just had one with Clay Travis. I know the talking loud, very opiniated guy people see and don't look past turns a lot of people off, but he is actually not the "woke" personality that ESPN pushes their personalities to be.

In fact ESPN seems to be laying off the petal when it comes to being "woke".

I use to watch ESPN daily, probably more than any other channel. Stopped doing it when they started lacing leftist political propaganda tropes into their programming.

I watch it in the morning and First Take with SAS really doesn't push any agenda at all. I watch College Football Live during the season and NFL Live and they don't push an agenda. Outside of that I can't say if they do or not.

Also, I think Molly on first take is kind of hot.

ESPN was the best station on television before the Disney purchase. It was never the same since. There came a point when I couldn’t take them shoving their leftist ideology down their audience’s throats any longer, and I haven’t watched their programming in years. The only time I tune in now is for live college sports.

Ryan is pretty popular and if his podcast is any indication of the numbers he brings in, then he is pretty valuable.

I wish they still did sports center like they used to do it. And they would have it on a loop every morning for like 5 hours straight. I remember during the summer growing up, I would watch at least two times. But it was beautiful. They would give you a run down of everything that happened in sports the day before, there was no one sharing their opinion, etc, etc..

I may be in a minority but as much as I think he has dumb race takes from time to time, he’s actually talented and has a sense of humor.

I.e. he’s a talented race baiter.

Jemelle Hill and Perkins are talentless race baiters.

They’ll probably cut somebody people actually like like Sage Steele, SVP, or Reddick.
