    Unless you look at it as Kirk is a huge racist(he is) and therefore Gruden “speaking out” is him saying things Kirk fully agrees with but won’t say himself

    Bomani always has good takes it’s honestly impressive how high his batting average is.

    Really wish he made the move to Meadowlark. He would be perfect for the brain trust pods.

    This has been a fairly tough story to follow as every network (in my limited straw sample) seeming doesn't quote what was actually said.

    I've watched an unacceptable amount of ESPN this weekend and aside from the tire/lip comment I know nothing.

    I'm fully aware he said a lot of other racist things - the coverage has just been odd.

    Fair critique - just read it.

    But I'll double down on ESPN's coverage being trash.

    It's hilarious reading Twitter comments from people who very obviously say similar shit and genuinely can't fathom that other people don't, so they project it on to everyone.

    "You could do the same thing to 90% of people and they'd have this kind of stuff and get fired"

    Uhhh, no? Speak for yourself

    Can’t let the masses know Gruden worked for them at the time, and likely sent said emails from his ESPN email address.

    Also - and the bigger cause here - can’t get people too riled up about all of this and turn them off of the NFL to the point they stop consuming highly lucrative NFL media.

    They absolutely do, but I don’t think Woj ever wades into non transactional stories all that often. Maybe occasionally, but it’s one thing to be the guy that blows up the NBA draft. It’s a whole different ball game to reach out to a guy who is part of an investigation into a toxic work environment, asking him to proof read your story.
