When I was a kid, people in my parent’s generation were immediately suspicious of anything that came from the internet. “Don’t meet anyone from the internet in real life!” “You can’t believe that, it’s just on the internet!”
That’s not even the expression. The expression is that you don’t want the inmates running the asylum, which is offensive in a far more subtle way that probably wouldn’t have bothered anybody. The fact that he had to change the expression to make turn the players who are protesting (among other things) racial profiling…

Boy I sure am glad we avoided the corrupt-as-all-hell Hillary Clinton!
As a former employee, I’m glad this was published. I also wish I hadn’t signed my life away in NDAs.
She’s also quite pretty, which would help promote the show, at least in the beginning.
Even if they don’t have any actual ideas they could just reboot Garbage Time on a channel that people are watching.
I mean, ESPN certainly made Woj irrelevant by making him share bylines with Windhorst and Shelbourne.
Nolan’s professional personality is different from ESPN’s traditionally polished and straight-laced pundits, who tend to have made their bones as sideline reporters or columnists.
