Essay21 2,385 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 crying is for terrible things. like the death of a child or a close loved one. the president of espn resigning because he couldn’t kick the booze is not an acceptable cause for blubbering like a baby. I mean you’d have thought he got a text while on air that Papi had died. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Essay has neither friends nor empathy. I hope you can see where the disconnect happens Rash him. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 it was pathetic because he was scared about how his diversity loving savior is likely to have something ugly come out and dan is fearful it will harm the progressive movement at espn. my god, think about it, if jemelle hill is taken off the air it will be just like 1854 again for black people.

brvheart 1,752 Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 I think maybe they were just friends. Link to post Share on other sites
Essay21 2,385 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I think dan made it pretty clear it’s fear of undoing the progressive movement and not actual friendship that caused his tears. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I think dan made it pretty clear it’s fear of undoing the progressive movement and not actual friendship that caused his tears. Nah, don’t think so. Think he was worried for his friend, whether it be addiction or getting taken down 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Just listened. I hate to say i’m with essay, but I think dan went about that poorly. Not sure if he tried to make it awkward and combative on purpose That being said, it’s apparent that Manfred started with a lie 1 Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 i dont have a problem with asking tough questions, its just dan's whiny, i'm near tears because its all so unfair tone is too much to take. if i was manfred, i'd have said i won't answer yes or no and i won't be told how to answer. if you have a problem with that i'll hang up now. then when he whined i'd just hang up.

brvheart 1,752 Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 I love Dan's passion, and I don't think it's as contrived as Suited does, but I totally think the entire tone of that interview was Dan's fault. He started off in the intro being combative and then his interrupting with "Rob, yes or no. Yes or no. " Was incredibly disrespectful. This was prior to any lies told, because Rob had only said about 2 words at that point. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 he was way out of line. With more info at my disposal, Manfred starting off the with a total lie is just as disrespectful. The bs answer are disrespectful. Just being the commissioner doesn’t include deference When you can’t tell the truth because it’s kind of deceitful, just don’t go on a combative show, just get shills like Stephen A or Wilbon to do your bidding. They would rather be friends with the power brokers than get actual answers That being said, his tone was shit. Shoulda been more surgical Link to post Share on other sites
Essay21 2,385 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Man free hadn’t lied yet when dan interrupted him. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,219 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Technically, Manfred interrupted Dan first, to make that little pitch about 2 championships. A “be grateful for what you have” type thing For the last time, dan had bad tone and was a bit out of line in spots, just in human decency. Link to post Share on other sites
Essay21 2,385 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Dan came out guns hot and big Rob wasn’t taking it lying down. I would prefer that, a million times over, than more social justice talk. Dan literally said the words “there’s a war in this country between black people and white people” this week. He’s jumped the shark in his analysis on race topics. Link to post Share on other sites
