    Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...

    Honestly, this whole thing was probably created by someone at ESPN just to gin up some discussion and viewership during the lull portion of the baseball season. Get a guy who's paid to be a loudmouth to say something obnoxious, then have another show's host call him out on it, suspend the guy with pay after he makes an apology forced upon him by the network, and watch viewership rise for a week or two.

      And ESPN should suspend Stephen A. for being complete garbage. Who wants to watch a show where he and Skip compete to see who can sound like a bigger idiot?

        A lot of people...it's one of their highest rated shows outside of live sporting events.

          Is it still? There were headlines in 2013 about their ratings going down. I saw a headline with their viewers down to 366,000 last summer.

              Correct. There are a lot of simple people in this world that find that show entertaining.

                "Simple people" is code for "complete idiots," right?

                    Now Dan LeBatard is the latest idiot magpie from ESPN to get suspended. Apparently he did something stupid (big surprise there) with a billboard for Lebron. Add him to the list of idiots that need to be thrown off of a bridge.

                      He should have been thrown off a bridge years ago.

                        ESPN3 is pretty good. Watching something other than scrubs football and Red Sox baseball saves an evening.

                          The money these guys make at ESPN must be awesome. Otherwise why work there?

                            It also provides the biggest platform with the most exposure.

                            Add Max Kellerman to the list of casualties. He was suspended for saying that he responded to his significant other slapping him by hitting her.

                              I didn't realize that Kellerman was still with ESPN... I haven't seen him since the original days of Around the Horn

                                At some point it goes too far.

                                But then again, maybe all of these suspensions will create a toxic workplace and get some of the talent to jump ship.
