What's the booking info for Sage Steele? :shaq:
Michael McCarthy at the Sporting News reports that ESPN is shifting Steele into a prominent new morning role at the network, though no official position has been determined. ESPN declined to comment on the news.

There are a number of potential landing spots for Steele. She could land as the news anchor on Mike & Mike host Mike Greenberg’s new morning show, which will reportedly combine elements of SportsCenterwith a general-interest morning show. So far, the network is tight-lipped about when Greenberg will leave Mike & Mike and when his new show will begin.

“We haven’t even hired a producer yet,” Greenberg said last month. “ I know people think I’m saying this just to say it, but we really have not officially decided to do this yet.”

Steele could also end up hosting a morning SportsCenter that would replace the Mike & Mike simulcast that current airs on ESPN2.
So much for ESPN demoting Sage Steele because she’s conservative

This.

Bye, bytch.

How she treated that attendant was reprehensible. You can tell a lot about a person's true character by how they treat service attendants.

A lot of sevice attendants aint shyt.:yeshrug: Just look at that dude who got dragged off that airplane and that other stewardess who took that mother's stroller and had the other passengers outraged.

A lot of people in those jobs whether it's at McDonalds or United Airlines, use whatever little power they have to fukk with people

A lot of them think their funky ass uniform will stop them from getting cussed the fuk out, but they don't know me:sas2:

No offense but what are you talkI guess about? The stuff you said in regards to my post don't make any sense at all. It is a lot of times where people on here have similar views to other groups on stuff like the San situation and Bruce. All it takes is a search so I don't understand all that slavery talk that has jack to do with what I posted.

You like many others of the "liberal" persuasion tried to equate Black members of the coli talking shyt about Bruce Jenner & Michael Sam with the racist motherfukkers who are threatened by Black on-air personalities.

My point is until we've enslaved motherfukkers, we could never be like them.



No lies told:yeshrug:

HE'S ALWAYS BEEN LOUD

People forget his first go round with ESPN he was doing so many jobs at once

Writing for ESPN.com
6pm SC segment with Skip
Cold Pizza/First Take
ESPN Radio
His own TV show
Writing for the Philadelphia Inquirer

When ESPN didn't renew his contract ratings plummeted for First Take. They tried Skip vs everybody and it wasn't working so they had no choice but to bring him back they needed him to save that show he had leverage.

This time he's number one on the network. It's the Howard Stern effect the people who like him tune in because they like him, the people who hate him tune in even more to see what he says next.

The latter is the part that kills me with people if you don't like something why watch it. Why give it your time in which you're giving the thing you hate more money. I've never liked FOX NEWS so I don't watch it I don't like Reality TV so I don't watch it but they have figured out the same thing. When you bring in the people who don't like you along with the people who do you've earned your money in entertainment because that's all this shyt is.

Is he loud and anoyying, yes

Does he say c00ntastic things, yes

But to say that man didn't earn his money in the racket he's in where he brings in ad revenue that helps pay for a lot of things. Come on now.

The Jeff Pealrman's
Kkklan Travis's
Jason c00nlocks

Are all lying when they say they wouldn't do what he does.

Bill O'Reilly was a bad journalist, regardless of what his ratings were and how much money he made.

Same thing with Stephen A. Smith. Dude isn't a journalist anymore. He may have started out as one, but now he's a starfukking hack who alternates between trolling Black people & White people dependent on the topic.

I believe Cari has a half white daughter. I remember her posting a pic of a half white girl. Could have been a niece:yeshrug:

She has no kids.

Stephen A hitting back at the :mjpls: crowd who were mad he wasn't fired.

Stephen A. responds to his critics

He is right. Most people talk about his First Take career and ignore that he was one of the only black columnists in America. He also broke tons of stories.

That has ZERO to do what he does now to make that money.

He's a glorified troll half the time.


If he is such a purist then why is he only calling out those two? There are plenty of others that do the same shyt they do but he is silent about them. Dudes a clown simple as that.

Who else has gotten rich doing what Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith do on a respectable network?:stopitslime:

20 years ago, ESPN had respectable figures like John Saunders, Roy Firestone, dikk Schaap, Ralph Wiley, William C. Rhoden.

You think those dudes would've been doing this type of bullshyt that they do?:mjlol:
