ESPN, a conflagration of politically correct liberal assholes.

And Lee, like many people with that last name today, is Asian-American. :faint:

Please combine the threads

Sports?

apparently only 4% of national sportscasters voted for the winner

I wish I even understood this one. Maybe not.

[Marshall Bennett]

Could have been worse I suppose, ESPN could have insisted he have his name changed.

You can't be serious.

Do I look serious?:p

[Dahoss9698]

Another reason to never watch ESPN. Bunch of wackadoddle's there.

I am serious about "You can't be serious." I hate ESPN and their over the top liberal bull crap that they have allowed to invade sports coverage. I think this is even more over the top than giving Caitlynn Jenner a courage award. Is there a link?

Who will call the game on ESPN?:eek:

I wonder if Fred Douglas or Johnny Brown are available,
2nd thought ,Johnny may have passed :rip:

Once ESPN hires Eric Cartman as an analyst, all will be good in the sports world.

[Tom]

Mark Stein, filling in for Rush this week, went off on this today.
Hilarious stuff! White supremists hiding out as Asian sportscasters.
Even Ghandi....Ghand E. Lee, a white supemist!

ESPN....run by idiots.

Is Bob Ley next?
