As angry as I am that people are denying COVID, lining up to see JFK Jr, storming the capitol & fearing they're magnetic, I'm mostly just really sad & really scared that their brains have been eaten by the internet. We need our very best minds working on how to bring them back.

Yes. Stage name Jugs Machine (always been a football fan). A prominent NFL GM was my best customer & he put in a good word w/ ESPN. I just made up the stuff about going to Cornell & being a D1 athlete & paid hundreds of people to pretend I spent 8 yrs working my way to ESPN.

“Cancel culture” is a term used in place of “accountability for words/actions” by those who don’t want to face the repurcussions of just openly defending & supporting someone’s depravity. It’s cowardice masquerading as toughness. It’s an attempt to make the offender the victim.

It's been super chill to see the "stick to sports" folks who throw around terms like "WokeCenter" & "MSESPN" when we talk about SOCIAL ISSUES like racism, homophobia, etc. have the actual President on their shows. It's only "politics" when people talk issues they'd rather ignore.

The last 2 days we’ve seen 2 celebs with big platforms make a choice — one decided to hedge bets & “both sides” things to stay likable (with the direst stakes on the line), the other said what she believes is right & will accept the consequences. When in doubt, be Dawn Staley.

Reggie Jackson’s profound commentary reminds me of the great Fergie Jenkins’ book, in which he details having to sleep in funeral homes & brothels while his white teammates slept in hotels. When we discuss the history of the league those truths are as important as statistics.

. @mPinoe’s words apply not just to the disappointing USWNT player currently signing her name to & putting her weight behind the hatred/bigotry in our society, but to anyone who tries to defend their hate by pretending it's "faith." If u aren't preaching LOVE you've been misled.

Just a reminder to women journalists--and women everywhere--that what you wear should have no effect on whether or not you're safe at work. Your clothes aren't harassing you, human beings are. Don't let anyone tell you you're at fault for your own victimization.
