    Knowing that conversation took place makes Russillo’s 1 minute “apology” look even weaker

    I don’t listen to many sports pods, but I always find myself liking bomanis pov on social things. Followed him on twitter recently.

    That’d be a smart addition to the ringer.

    i could never follow bomani on twitter. at least back in the day he tweeted non-stop and got in spats with people in his mentions constantly. just took over the feed.

    I always think that when people post his tweets on TMB. He's incredibly smart and talented but I'm just not going to scroll through 50 tweets from one person in a 90 minute stretch. Maybe he's better at that than he used to be, but I gave up on that a long time ago.

    he doesn't tweet nearly as much as he used to, and I love when he makes people look dumb.

    Nothing surprising but wouldn't be a bad subject for Bill to tackle soon on the pod.

    They prob tackled the torii Hunter tweet and asked Deray to listen to it before making it public. So, basically, they had to delete the whole show and burn any evidence of it.

    I was the same but I think the way tweets are organized now make him a much less overwhelming follow. Or maybe he just stoped replying to every mention.

    always enjoyed bomani but every once in awhile he starts talking like he has a really stuffed up nose and it drives me crazy. simmons does the same thing

    i think i have a problem with small aural annoyances pissing me off way out of proportion to what they are

    just the photo wouldn't have done it, it sparked like half the current staff and a ton of former employees sharing stories about actual managerial incompetence and at best tone deaf diversity measures if not discriminatory practices

    I enjoyed Sellers on the pod today. He isn't my favorite political personality, but I thought he was a good podcast guest and didn't let Bill ramble on his shit.

    I’m encouraged that a pod with his reach among white males has gone Bakari and Deray back to back. No doubt thousands of Bostonians did a “WTF IS THIS SHIT” and turned it off, but hopefully other listened and internalized their points. I spent 7 years in SC and had never heard of the Orangeburg Massacre

    imagine if Bill finally dropped a detailed take on the NBA/China situation now out of nowhere, he did say he needed to "look into it more"

    Surprised Bill hasn’t had Tyler Tynes on the pod. Ringer writer who has actually been at the protests and writing about them seems like a layup podcast spot to me.

    I rewatched it last night. Forgot how much I liked it.

    I haven’t listened yet. I wonder if they taped this a few weeks ago to air it this week since his new movie comes out this week.

    To have any other opinion other than Haley is the queen of the ringer is just incorrect.

    Listening to the ‘05 Redraft and I’m pretty sure Russillo reads this thread. He just did the “Can i just add one thing to that, and i hate to do that to you...” then a pause for a half a beat to let it sink in.
