Won’t...or can’t?

Is this the excuse Gawker management made to female employees that were assaulted with horrific images in comments they were tasked with reviewing?

I’m an old (75½) white guy, therefore my opinion has no value but I express it because—at least so far—I’m still allowed. I quite agree with Bob Costas. Further, I’m at a loss to understand why so many of those who comment here hate on him. I rank Mr. Costas with John Madden, Vin Scully, Don Meredith, and especially…

Perfect. Well said.

“I am afraid here at Deadspin to say what I think without repercussion.”

Nailed it. And I’m afraid others feel the same way but are afraid to speak up with out being called discriminatory names. Frankly, what you just did chattygal is more courageous. Jenner is courageous but is in it for the money and attention equally.

From Will Leitch just a few months ago — who said it better than I could:

I think the decision to give the award to Jenner was certainly a ratings calculation on the part of ESPN. Nothing new there, certainly, and I think Costas is within his rights to criticize.

He even walks to the locker room in ISO.

Anna UPDATE: Charges been dropped

This is where I hold my issues with this as Costas does, there were other candidates who definitely deserved this award within the realm with sports, but because I have that opinion, I am called transphobic, bigot, and all those labels. In this way, yes, Catylin Jenner was a massively successful Olympian, however, her…

Personally, I would have given the award to Lauren Hill. Just don’t think a celebrity coming out as gay or transgender is all that courageous in this day and age where it is celebrated across the board (hmmm, is their an agenda here that most don’t comprehend) and anyone who questions it is struck down with fury.

More like its avatar.

Perhaps the Knicksing of the Cavs is countered by David Lee’s presence on the Warriors bench.

she is right, fashion is changing toward full body fishnets with beads.

no. it’s that they have nobody who can bang with Thompson and Mosgov. Bogut looked gassed by the second quarter.

Only if the Raiders are somehow able to pry Jay Cutler from the Bears.

Please, never apologize for speaking from your convictions. It is the most liberating form of free speech.
