What is it with sports and right-wing commentators?

[denverbill]

Jesus H Christ, first it was Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football. Now, Limpballs on ESPN.

Now, I visit ESPN's website, and see this purely political bullshit.

Fuck espn. If they wanna be the right-wing sports network, feel free assholes. Pretty soon people are going to be puking on the right-wing agenda, and you'll be nothing but a chunk in the gunk.

1. Easterbrook is hysterical

I've been reading him for years and have yet to really grasp his politics. He makes fun of a lot of people.

And Hunter S. Thompson writes for that same page. Read his latest.

2. gawd it goes on and on and on and on and on - get this idiot an editor...

BTW: Who's surprised?

Gregg Easterbrook is a senior editor of New Republic, a contributing editor of The Atlantic Monthly and a visiting fellow at the Brookings Institution. He is believed to be the first Brookings scholar ever to write a pro football column. :eyes:

Remember: ESPN = Part of the Disney Evil Empire (with ABC, The Hitlery Channel, etc)

4. He is a Senior Editor at the New Republic!!!!

:wtf:!!!!!

No wonder TNR is such a reich wing POS tabloid!!!

[LionInWinter]

3. ESPN = ABC = Disney

Damned liberal media!

[Flying_Pig]

6. ESPN = ABC = Disney = Big Support of AIPAC = PNAC =.........

right-wing bullshit!

:grr:

5. When I saw the headline

"Cowboys win better than Ice Cream" I automatically assumed that Limbaugh had written this. After all, he would be a good judge...

7. GW's

hey, this one was pretty funny i thought..

George W. Bush's Ice Cream of Mass Destruction. The label lists nuclear, biological and chemical content, but inspectors have been unable to find these ingredients.

[theboss]

8. Follow the rules

You can only judge somebody based on the first paragraph. The fact that this guy has years worth of material behind him means nothing. He is a right-wing tool and must be mocked regardless of the facts.

[paulsbc]

10. ha

so right, how dare I read the entire article :)

[denverbill]

11. Yeah, two lines on Bush-Cheney.

And about 10 paragraphs on the Democrats. Calls Edwards and ambulance chaser, Kucinich a nut, Dean a 4-state carrying wonder. Gee, I wonder what incredibly harsh criticism he levels at the draft-dodging, insider-trading, corporate cash grabbing Bush and Cheney?

Oh, the missing WMD and Cheney being at an undisclosed location? Gee, how balanced.

This is a frickin sports site. ESPN, ya know? Why the hell does ESPN have ANY politics?

Jesus H Christ, why doesn't the Democratic Party have 1/2 it's content dedicated to football? Maybe MLB.com should have Hillary Clinton provide a weekly column?

[Kamika]

9. to be fair..

he did make fun of bush and cheney too

[leftofthedial]

12. football is to American fascism

as the Nurnberg rallies were to German fascism
