I wish the guy would ask Coach Saban a question at a news conference one day and Coach just rip him another one.

"My bad" is not something you say if you are sincerely sorry for doing something that could damage another person's reputation.
I don't know what his point in doing this was. Race relations is a hot button issue and probably not something you should joke about. I can't believe he still has a job.

I'd bet on him being quietly let go a short time after returning from suspension. They don't want to fire him directly because his supporters would cause a PR blowback. They'll get rid of him after the public has forgotten about all this mess.
ESPN workers are certainly ensuring their employer isn't getting bored. Ryan Russillo arrested for criminal entry. He was sloppy faced drunk, lost all his senses and ended up going into a strangers home and crashing in their bed.

Since this has nothing to do with Political Correctness he might just be in big trouble.
The ironic part is CNS tries his best to avoid hot-button issues. I recall someone asked him about voting, and he side-stepped it, as best he could. (Why get 1/2 of your fanbase mad at you?)
A lot of "journalists" took exception to his answer, so no matter what you say, someone will conflate it.

Really stupid move on the reporters part.
I'm not a fan of tweeting, it's seems to be a glaring example of the dumbing down of things in general. I was reading Rushs post, he reads a dumb post on twitter, followed by a flood of more dumb misinformed tweets echoing the garbage. I salute Rush for hitting back, but it almost seems to be a waste of time. Why get in the mud with them?
What happened to complete paragraphs, and coherent discussion that does more that seem like a clever way to try to simplify a thought in 140 letters?
I think what that reporter tweeted was outrageous, but that seems to be one of the built in features of tweeting, and what I mean by that is when you try to cover a delicate or complicated, complex issue by tweeting, it's not even a serious shot at actually communicating, in my humble opinion.
And have you heard the music kids are listening too these days?

As a public service, here is a quick lesson in what satire looks like:
"Coach Lou Saban, of the Alabama Univ. Water Buffaloes said........................" :biggrin2:
(Even that might fail, since a lot of folks think Lou Saban is the father of CNS.)
