. You know damn well Beasley didn't want his mom depicted as a thief.
damn that beas episode was so powerful, glad he was able to get his story out and shift the narrative. breh was pouring his heart out so much you can tell he didnt want the interview to end so he could continue to be heard
Incredible episode 
Yup. I didn't really hear anything from him that was unique to jut him... A LOT of people and athletes have overcome worse circumstances. Yes people are shytty and will use you for your talents, connections and money but at some point you have to look in the mirror and take accountability.
Even when the pivot crew were offering him help he wouldn't outright accept it. He just replied with a "yea but..." about how people burned him in the past. Dude needs to get some professional help before anything.
What Beasley said about everybody laughing at you when you going through some real-shyt, just reminded me of the Chadwick Boseman situation. shyt scary out here people are too desensitize to wake up.

Wow, what an episode. These dudes lapped IAA with this one.
It'll be one of those things that they'll need to follow up with him because I don't think he really knows how to be accountable for himself. I felt like he low key admitted that. He was raising himself since he was 4 or 5 years old. If all of his father figures were gained because he was good at basketball it makes sense he don't know how because in that world they forgive anything as long as you good at hoop. Think about the pre-draft Fizdale story. He was late and still got drafted 2nd. How is that showing him accountability?
That cat is holding onto a whole lot of trauma either way. Just like a lot of folks who have had the same story as him. If he don't get help there's a bunch of folks who are hearing this episode that it'll help.

I think this was a good interview. His ego definitely shows in it (when talking about being the face of ESPN and the best at what he does), but he’s technically not wrong.

i see enough of his ass on espn, if anything SAS is over exposed in regards to viewership.

He does drive ratings. If anyone could be plugged in there and generate interest they would’ve found someone cheaper. They kept him and let Max go because like him or not he equals ratings.
