ESPN NBA Countdown host Rachel Nichols caught being white & racist.......

Nichols, who said she was "shaken" that a "fellow employee" would record and share a video of her private hotel room conversation, gave a statement to the Times along with responses to their questions.

bitch you should be shaken for saying it.......
she'd still be silent as a church mouse if the video hadn't leaked.
 
I haven't listened to him as much lately. He always struck me as a "don't upset the bag" type guy. Like he'll comment but only within reason.

Which by the way I got no problem with

He don't need to be hero or the official voice.

You don't need to lose your job over this stuff.

And I would hope all commentators period are respectful and as honest as possible

But we know that is far from the case.

I think you can be NOT SAS level and don't have to go super Ultra Black either.

We probably never gonna get a Ralph Wiley RIP on ESPN ever again.

He ain't perfect, but Bo in my eyes is very smart consistent well thought honest and direct.

He is one of the few I think can speak on it honestly without getting fired or losing their integrity.

We will SOON see.
 
Man outside of live sports and Bo... Does anyone really watch their content??? Its just kinda there.

It's a habit. It's reflex. It's tradition. It's a staple.

That's it.

I think if your a sports fan it's the default

You were raised on it

I haven't watched a sports center honestly in YEARS.

I got the app and my team alerts

They got some good podcasts 30 for 30 still great, Pti, highly questionable, sometimes first take and get up.

But outside Bo who SHOULD be the new voice of ESPN moving forward?

Nah, it needs a hard reboot

Shout out Dominique, Chiney, Elle, Mina, Pablo, Jalen, Maria, and a few others I'm forgetting.

They should be the foundation of a reboot across the platform to refresh EVERYTHING

TV, ESPN+, Podcasts, social media

And all sports from golf, tennis, Mma, boxing, horse racing, nascar, soccer, to the real big leagues of NBA, nfl, mlb.

@largebillsonlyplease could set up a plan to make them truly the worldwide leader right now.

With the same budget.


James Pitaro sleeping

I'm about to shoot him an email to introduce him to my guy.

The Rachel Nicolas of the world are hard to replace her acumen her cachet...

White wimmins like that are box office.

Super stars

I don't care who gets mad at me you know I don't give a damn but as the voice of black people here I have to say

Maria Taylor was wrong to think she deserved my salary you can't get what I get

the powers that be don't like that

You like Lebron James getting that nba stimulus package to win that championship

You will never be Jordan I'm Jordan of espn Young lady

I earned my spot I'm from Southside Jamaica queens

Imma Hard worker and the bosses know that and love that

Shout out to Disney

Stevie A love the kids yes he surely does.
 
I think its all a bit of overreaction. I kinda agree with Stak. ESPN took part of her assignment and decided to slide it over to Maria Taylor, so yeah Nichols had every right to be upset. I'm sure ESPN holds the right to reassign employees as needed. So it would make sense , if they decided to have a person of color upfront during the finals to articulate some of what was going on. Nichols made the mistake of assuming it was for diversity reasons. She was ranting on in frustration like Stak said.

ESPN is in a pickle now. No way they can try to discipline Nichols, without someone bringing up Jalen Rose comment about Love being a token white boy for the Olympic team. Nothing happened to him for that as for as I know. I also find it suspicious that all this drops during Maria Taylors contract negotiations. Shit happened a year ago and its just now coming to light?

Maria is talented and a beautiful sister, but her and Taylor Rooks be on some our shit don't smell vibe sometimes. ESPN reportedly offered her 5 million per year, which was up from the 1 million she was getting paid. But she turned it down because she wanted something close to Stephen A. Smith money? Like him or hate him, she nowhere near as valuable to them as SAS is. I guarantee no one else is offering her anything close to that.
