Being a police constable has to be the most difficult job there is, and that’s only worsened in the current climate. Policing only works if citizens understand and agree that they’ve empowered a select few to ensure the law is being upheld. Tweets that read “Cops still lurking around” indicate that for such a large…

To be clear... its not the players in the brawl who are the morons.... its not the coaches who are equally mixed in the brawl who are the morons.. Its the fucking cop(s) who are the morons for trying to do something to end it. Sounds about right.

Gotta love the people defending the actions of morons in a brawl. But the police are the problem here... okay. Wow. Same people that bitch about baseball beefs. “But those are grown men!!” I don’t care. Brawl shouldn’t be the norm and then when a police officer takes action the officer is the problem. When did this…

If that includes macing/worse for mass brawls, mobs, etc... BRING IT. As someone who doesn’t fly into a fit of rage, throw things at people, break stuff when life doesn’t go my way, it is much appreciated.

Not a single thing excessive about this. If your team can’t behave in a civilized manner then you don’t get to complain when you are treated like a mob. Good for the 1 or 2 cops controlling the 30-40 people here.

Did anyone suggest Jemele be put in jail for her words?

You’re an idiot if this is how you operate. Ignorance is not grounds for firing or being called a racist, which by the way holds almost no meaning now because of outraged losers like you.

I am going to be that guy- This has nothing to do with the First Amendment. She is free to say Trump is a racist. And ESPN, a private company, is free to fire her/punish her/do nothing to her if it feels like it.

It’s been on the front page of Yahoo several times...

You’re literally complaining that the biased media won’t cover a certain topic in the comments section of a media article covering the topic.

In Deadspin comments, joke misses you!

The Caps are happy because they’ll need a rested Ovie if they want to go deep into the second round of the playoffs.

Should’ve said “Racial Bias,” ya’ll would have eaten that shit right up.

Credit should be given to Michael Smith here. I don’t always agree with what he says and am definitely not a fan of how they conduct their hour of SportsCenter, but he’s always seemed like a stand-up guy to me and this is another example of it.

Breaking news, companies don’t like for employees to take controversial opinions on social media. This isn’t limited to public figures like Hill, plenty of people have lost their jobs from their social media posting.

It’s not crap though. I agree with her 100% but she’s the public face of an entertainment product which is branded around her. Her show makes it that everything she does (that’s not creepily stolen like Erin Andrews) is partly a reflection of ESPN. It’s part of the gig and that gig is to get as many eyeballs as…

Honest question: What is the difference between this situation and Curt Schillings firing? I’m as big a Schilling hater as they come, but I am having a hard time understanding how his sharing certified dank memes is any different from what Hill tweeted out. Both on personal accounts.

Perhaps a platform where the first line on the page doesn’t read: “Co-host of the 6pm SportsCenter, aka The Six.”

This is the tennis version of the eephus. Tenneephus?
