Many of the same people that say they support you. Laugh with you. Party with you. & break bread with you, don't really like YOU. In fact, some can't even stand your ass. It's important to understand this and not let it affect YOU. Can't please everybody. Don't try to.
I’ll probably lose my job for saying it but IDGAF. I refuse to idly sit by while a colleague of mine, once again, says/does ignorant, reckless shit!! The irony is this is a man who is claiming LeBron is seeking attention, while he is the one who really craves it.
I wish y’all would give the same energy and exposure to Brett Favre & Mississippi as you seem to be giving to Ime Udoka, the Celtics &
#NiaLong
I mean Favre screwed a whole state
Michael Jordan went through a lot of stuff y’all seeing Caitlyn going through. Magic Johnson got it from his OWN teammates m. CC is a sh*t talker too. Angel Reese is getting hammered & dealing w/it. Caitlyn is grown and in a grown woman’s league. She’ll be alright.
If JuJu comes along and surpasses all the marks & exposure CC had in college, we’re gonna see who keeps this same energy, if she gets the same treatment.
Everyone keeps talking about Biden’s age like his opponent is 20 or 30 years younger….he’s NOT. The age difference is 3 YEARS. If you could’ve gone to high school together, you can’t stress AGE!!
EVERYWORD!! Been telling yall this about that waste of skin! After this, it's really time to ignore him & cut off the little oxygen that's even getting to the head of that Jabba the Hut looking monstrosity!! (he won't have pallbearers cuz ain't nobody strong enuf to lift his ass)
When are we going to get to the point where Caitlin Clark & Angel Reese fans can ALL just appreciate and RESPECT both of their games and stop tearing down one lady just to prop up theirs? Yes, the 1 you root for is great but so is the other.
These REAL AMERICANS about to boycott the USA women’s basketball team because their favorite player (and OBVIOUSLY the only player they actually know about) didn’t make the team??
D, you’re my guy but why are you hating on this kid? Lol We loved money making Manziel’s money sign, how come folks are so pressed at this celebration? He’s trolling them for trolling him yelling overrated. Before you say they’re 1-5, if your team is 1-5 you shouldn’t say SHIT
Sad to hear the news of Greg Leakes passing. When I first started dating Cynthia he always had supportive words. In fact he was the 1st person to pray for us in our relationship. I’ll never forget it or the tips he passed down as to how to navigate
#RHOA
🙏🏽 for Nene & the family
Love SAS but he’s wrong here. She didn’t say FT wasn’t a spearhead for diversity or didn’t speak on the WNBA, she said his platform could’ve had bigger discussions years ago. It’s true.
@McNuttMonica
was making a name for herself long b4 FT! He didn’t MAKE her. Her talents have.
"Ever heard of Monica McNutt? You have now…she's on First Take a lot…I've sat back for years taken a lot of sh*t…Highly offensive when somebody implies or flat out states like Monica McNutt did…factually incorrect"

Angel Reese did not CHOOSE to be the villian, many in this society chose to MAKE her one. She embraced the us against everybody mentality because what are you supposed to do when you receive hate for really no reason? In the end, she’s STILL human, despite the mask.
We’ve had Living Single, Girlfriends and Insecure…shows about positive black women & their relationships with each other. Has there ever been a good, successful tv show about black men like this? (One that lasted at least 4 seasons?)
I love SNOWFALL. It is my favorite show on television, right now. However, you can tell the people who are saying it's better than The Wire are too young to remember just how phenomenal The Wire is/was.
When & if Curt Schilling gets into the baseball HOF, they should put him & guys like Cap Anson & Ty Cobb in a wing (preferably in the basement) all by themselves. They would actually love it since they believe in segregation.
Drew Brees, “I” fought for this country for 6 years in the Air Force. I fought for someone like Kap to use his RIGHT to be able to peacefully protest injustice. IT’S NOT DISRESPECTING THE FLAG. YOU are disrespecting the cause. This is the wrong audible for you to call!
Highlight:
@readdanwrite
asks
@drewbrees
what the star NFL quarterback thinks about "players kneeling again when the NFL season starts."
@drewbrees
: “I will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America or our country.”
Full exchange:
If Cancel Culture is really going to have Donald J. Trump removed from the John Hughes movie “Home Alone,” then in support of MY PRESIDENT, I’d like to have myself officially removed from the John Hughes’ films, “Pretty In Pink” and “Ferris Buhler’s Day Off.”😂
Folks, who only know and see one player, don’t have the knowledge to answer this question. If it were up to them, she’d make the team & compete against other nations by herself, like a dribbling Captain America.
While I respect his passion, Tebow isn't speaking for the majority of these college kids. Sure he played for the UofF for the love & all that but there's a HUGE difference when your family has MONEY or means ALREADY. Bet the majority of his teammates don't agree w/him.
I worked at ESPN. Let me tell you one thing I know for sure, Sage Steele’s interview would have been CAREFULLY CONSTRUCTED & she would’ve received the SAME DEMANDS by the brass if she was interviewing Trump too. It would NOT have been different than her Biden interview.
#NotNews
Ever notice how the same people screaming for protection of their 2nd amendment rights are the same ones who are totally against and want to punish Colin Kaepernick for exercising his 1st Amendment rights?
Biden was joking!! Shit wasn’t funny but it was a joke. Geeez!! I’ll say it this way. If you are black & THAT comment ALONE sways your vote from Biden to the other guy, you’ll still be black but you’ll also be dumb as hell. @ me.
Had a convo w/a guy in the 💈who said he voted for Biden in 20 but wasn’t voting at all this year. I asked him, what did Biden promise you 4yrs ago that he didn’t TRY to get done for you policy wise & how will the other guy make your life better? He has nothing (cont$
Just hearing about
@espngolic
Because of him, I had a nat’l radio show on
@ESPN
. We weren’t super close & only did a few NFL show together but HE is the one who suggested to execs I fill in for Greeny one morning & the rest is history. I will FOREVER be grateful.
If your colleague does/says shit that is reckless/wrong and you don’t speak up about it, you’re complicit like the “good” cops who see other cops brutalizing or murdering folks & don’t do a damn thing about it.
Kamala looking like that black mom that's out in public with her bad ass kids.....she's smiling but you just KNOW them kids gonna get their asses whipped when they get home.
#VicePresidentialDebate
But the whole world watched you lose your dignity & self respect kissing the ass of a man who disparaged your wife and father. You shouldn’t even be allowed to watch a game played with balls since you don’t have yours anymore.
No matter who’s side you’re taking or how you look at it, that Chris/Will sh*t was terrible in every way. Overshadows EVERYTHING & just looks BAD.
#Oscars
16 years ago today, I started at
@ESPN
Even though I left 7 years ago, I’m forever grateful that it gave me the first major platform of my career. It is a major reason why I’m in the position I am today. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Why Alexi? Why is she the ONLY reason you’d watch, when there are players w/more experience & actually better. I understand the excitement but that’s like someone saying the only reason they’d watch or support US soccer was 4 L. Donovan. That’s disrespectful to the others, bruh
I don’t know enough about USA women’s Olympic basketball to know if Caitlin Clark’s omission is a snub. I do know that, right now, she would be the only reason I would remotely care about USA women’s Olympic basketball.
Here’s a prime example of MEN being MEN! Showing transparency, vulnerability, honesty and contrition!! If we could settle more of our traumas like this, we’d be in such a better place.
I’ve been going on with life as usual since 2017 never knowing that I’d hurt
@R_Mendenhall
, never knowing how my words poured salt into an already painful wound. Today Rashard told me how my comments about his Super Bowl 45 play crushed him. So many of us never get an opportunity
Been there w/Skip b4 when I moderated 1stTake a while back. We almost came to blows cuz I told him he “would never talk down to me…EVER”. He’s WRONG! His opinion isn’t the only one that matters. Good for JT for standing her ground. & yes, I still work at FOX but wrong is wrong !
I think Atlanta is brilliant but it’s still not displaying an ensemble of college educated, positive brothers navigating life together & their relationships.
Super proud dad alert!! So happy for my baby kayylahill Tonight, she found out she got into one of her top school choices (and MY FAVE)
@UCLA
Her reaction was everything to me and it…
This movie
@HobbsAndShaw
looks like it’s going to be absolutely EPIC!! The weekend can’t get here soon enough for me to see it.
@CynthiaBailey10
wants me to wait to see it so we can see it together but she’s just gonna have to be mad!! Hey
@TheRock
, hopefully you got my back!
To lose a spouse is one thing, to lose a child is unbearable. My thoughts, prayers and compassion goes out to Vanessa & the rest of the Bryant family. Man, this hurts me.
#KobeBryant
I see some of y’all got a lot to say about Pam Oliver. You wish you had half the skills or career of that lady. She’s an iconAnd if you’re joking about her hair, take a damn good look at yourselves....I see your pictures & your sh*t is really f’ed up.
Tennis just lost one of its biggest stars from one of its biggest events cuz the world is still TOO damn ignorant to understand how important mental health is. It’s not a game.
Perception ain’t always reality. When u leave ESPN, some think u-r taking a step back. In most cases that’s FAR from the truth. Sure u may not have the exposure u once had but happiness, peace, RESPECT, appreciation & good money w/o being overworked mean so much more
#MariaTaylor
An Oakland County prosecutor says a teacher caught Ethan Crumbley searching ammunition on his cellphone during class, notified administrators, & contacted Crumbley's parents. His mom wrote to his son, "LOL. I'm not mad at you. You have to learn not to get caught."
@Manofsteel_xk
@TheGreatIsNate
Yup & if you listened to the whole interview you would’ve heard me say that & more. It’s a joke that “we” always say to ONE ANOTHER. Don’t try & make it what it’s not.
You can fall for the tears all you want to but remember this was the same “scared little boy” just days after he shot 3 people, killing 2. His T-shirt reads “Free As F*ck”
Bill Russell would like to have a word. Danny Ainge is a liar!! Just about every black player who’s ever played in Boston, especially the stars, have said something about the racist fans. Ignoring complaints & not hearing it are two seperate things.
Once again, this ain’t a knock on any of the black women shows. I love & support them all. This ain’t why them & not us…it’s why not both?? I’m the last person to divide. Don’t you do it
Yup, a qb that won 62% of his games as a starter. Won the ROY and went to the pro bowl twice despite being vilified by a coach that never wanted him & tried to ruin his career is the epitome of a BUST. More so than Manziel, Jamarcus Russell, Leaf, Tebow, Couch!! SMDH. Stop it!!
I'm not gay but I stand against and speak up when I see homophobia. I'm not Jewish but I stand against anti-semitism. I railed when I saw little Mexican children in cages & stood strong when ALL of us were attacked on 9/11. What's your excuse for not being black & saying nothing?
Y’all killing me with these theories that LeBron faces tougher defenses than MJ did! You youngsters must’ve forgot defenses could grab, push, pull, elbow, STRANGLE a player when MJ played. Half the defenders Jordan faced would be kicked out the league if they had to play today.
This is damaging to the Warriors! This is why Kawhi did it the smart way while in San Antonio. A team doesn’t always have an athlete’s best interest in mind. That’s why it’s important for that athlete to KNOW when to say NO. Only you really know your body.
Man in Akron shot more than 60 times while unarmed after a police pursuit. Man in Illinois taken after separate police pursuit w/o incident & alive after killing 6 & wounding dozens more. If you don’t see the problem, you don’t want to see it or you are part of it
Nick Chubb, obviously done for the season, if not more. Saquan Barkley out a few weeks. Jonathan Taylor on the PUP. There’s a reason why these running backs want financial security. They get used, beaten, thrown away & forgotten.
Understand the anger!! But let me say AGAIN if you’re burning blogs & looting stores, you’re not honoring the memory of the fallen. You’re not helping. You’re taking advantage of a situation. WTF stealing Nikes got to do with racial equality? If you’re doing it, you’re a DUMBASS
Wow!!! Just fucking WOW!!! Trump is a damn moron and a racist, who just defended a 17 year old RACIST MURDERER. If you support him....unfollow, block, cancel me right now cuz if I see you’re supporting this piece of shit, you’re done to me.
Miss me with the Shaka Smart vitriol now. This is the man who led a team predicated to finish 9th in his conference to the Big East title this year, 29 wins and a 2 seed. Most of the folks spouting this foolishness probably never even saw Marquette play this year.
RIP to the great Fred Hickman. Long before I was inspired by any sports anchor on Sportscenter, Fred was the anchor I looked up to. He was solid, great & looked like ME. A rarity back then. Later had a chance to be a colleague & was an even BETTER human. We’ll miss you bro!
@GoodmanHoops
These should be two separate tweets, if you’re trying to prove a point. Stomping on a logo is something players from the opposite team should handle. Nothing justifies a fan throwing an object at a players head.
Log off dummy! I’ve been tired of your shit but now you’ve really gone too far. I don’t understand why you “exist”. Who questions how someone wants to grieve, except a self centered asshole, who’ll do anything for clout?You’ve been an embarrassment. Now you’re a fool w/no soul
#NoVaseline
@icecube
is BY FAR the greatest diss song of all time!! Hit me up had the most impactful opening line but the overall track doesn’t even compare.
-Racist March & kill
Trump “Good people on both sides”
-Football players kneel
Trump “They’re SOB’s”
-Armed protesters in Mich upset about haircuts
Trump “good people but angry”
-Protesters in Minn upset about the death of unarmed black person
Trump “Thugs. We will shoot you”
Before you condemn people who are on drugs, you should find out the reason why they use them. More people need to see drug addiction as a sickness that may be used to mask some sort of pain. They need help. Not your hate.
