Why did so many Democrats, from across the spectrum (from Sanders to Manchin) vote to confirm this piece of shit? Did I miss something?

As opposed to those crimes that should’ve taken place?

Dilfer isn’t really a surprise to me. ESPN employs like five too many bald quarterbacks with bad takes on stuff.

Hi Kyle. Thanks for your response, I read your piece a few weeks ago on 538, and know you have some opinions on this, and presented a ton of data to support your argument.

You left out the most important part of that passage:

That wasn’t the D’Antne Demery I knew.

People criticized Scotty Brooks’ system too. I tend to believe that Russ IS the system, and thus the problem. He plays this way because he wants to. That’s why it kills me when people say, ‘If he had better teammates...” He had the second best player on the planet and barely wanted to give him the ball. He doesn’t…

Come on he can’t be that bad. What’s he done besides claim there’s a war on football by the Liberal Media, hint at being a CTE truther while watching the ‘85 Bears documentary, publicly rally against college athletes being paid, call for the Broncos to commit late hits against Tom Brady (when he was a quarterback…

When his baby girl cried, he was the only one that could soothe her. He did so instantly.

And that’s why I prayed for him.

It would be a total misread, though, to see Westbrook’s fourth-quarter bricklaying as the result of some egotistical spasming. Westbrook was only doing what he’d been doing all throughout the regular season, in which he became the best clutch player in the league and singlehandedly won almost too many games to…

“Now on 5 hours a day, it’s ‘Shouty and Squinty’, where Stephen A. shouts, and Darren squints blankly into the abyss!”

Agreed. ESPN Boston had promise, but the clear slight against hockey at ESPN Corporate didn’t help in an area that would then just jump to NESN to get Bruins, Hockey East, and ECAC coverage.Pretty soon they’re staying for the baseball and football articles. Once ESPN went fully-committed to the League over the Pats in…

Barry Melrose is an odd hill to die on.

I would miss Hannah. On my BTATV Scale, she’s a 0.

This will be a net positive for the New Economy, for every vapid talking head given a pink slip, up to 15 hashtag creators can be employed and paid in Disney Fun Bucks.

So will Stephen A. Smith

Karl Ravech having his role reduced is pretty surprising since, while he does focus mainly on baseball, he’s one of the few top-name wild cards that ESPN can put pretty much anywhere, especially when doing live sports stuff.

It’s simple. We just build a wall around Afghanistan and make the Afghans pay for it! In fact we’ll just wall off all the countries we don’t like.
