What is going on with Stephen A. Smith vs Ike Taylor ?

[FTBS]

Sure even though the mention of political office is in the definition you posted my point is it doesn't apply niccas discussing sports nothing important address my points how bout that ? Bully pulpit doesn't apply to them move along they discussing sports your point had nothing to do with politics

Bully pulpit has been used in reference to thing outside of politics on numerous occasions. It has never been used in reference to actual bullying. The really funny thing is I knew that you were gonna jump on the politics angle and cling to it for dear life. Woulda had more respect if you just acknowledged that you didn't know what it was originally or just kept it moving. Instead you try this very esque tactic of trying to flip it.

What points?

If you weren't so busy tryna argue you woulda realized that we basically agreed on the original subject.

Stephen A may have as a good of a relationship with D Wade as anybody in the media

According to who? It may be amicable at best right now.

And what responsibilities do nikkas on here have?

at the oversimplification. If Steven A or Skip used some of the language that is used on here or aligned themselves with some of the ideology espoused by some nikkas on here they would be gone immediately. Entertainers or not there is a certain standard that they must meet to make it on TV everyday. Beyond that they are the ones who constantly throw the journalism card whenever they are challenged so in that case it's only fair that they get held to journalistic standards and they do not meet those.

You just said their only responsibility is to get viewers for their show and that they are only entertainers and I am the one spinning, copping pleas, and making excuses? about that pot.

You're the one who brought up responsibility man, not I. I've never claimed that the posters here have any responsibility. Look, this isn't that serious and certainly not worthy of essay-length responses. My point remains, posters here chastise Steve and skip for behavior that they themselves exhibit. Save your drivel for someone else.

And my point is that nikkas on here aren't journalists, don't get paid to express their opinion, and don't have a bully pulpit for 10 hours a week or any of the credibility that comes along with any of those things therefore comparing them to Skip and Steven is actaully a diss of them not nikkas on here. Like I said before it's like comparing nikkas on the street to professional basketball players.

No it's not like that, that's a stupid analogy. My point remains, people here criticize Steve and skip for behavior that they themselves exhibit.

I know nikkas are not comparing a message board to a fukking national TV show.

Because they hold those guys to a higher standard due to all the things I listed. Much like pro ball players are held to a higher standard than random nikkas on the street.

No, they do it because they're hypocrites. Stop copping pleas and making excuses. Steve and skip don't belong on a pedestal. They're talking heads who are paid to argue with each other over sports related topics. Their opinions hold no more weight than the posters here. Again, that basketball analogy is just silly. As if it takes natural God given talent/physical attributes to sit on television and argue opinions with the next man. You have to compete and prove yourself to be one of the best players in tw world to get in a pro league. What Jornalism competitions did skip or Steve win to get that show?

You have to prove yourself to be one of the best reporters to get known on a national level. You think random nikkas off the street just walk into ESPN and get a show? How about you try that and tell me how it works out for you.

Lets just end it here because your posts are too stupid to be taken seriously.

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Yeah the guy who recognizes that a "journalist" with their own show is not the same as some nikkas on a message board is the one making stupid points. No rebuttals for my points huh? That tends to happen when you make baseless arguments.
