Sports reporters was my shit all the way. I would watch that show live.

But now, yes…it’s fox/cnn status now. Most of these folks are not even kinda sorta trying to ‘get it right’ or offer dynamic takes. It’s just ‘this or that’ tomfoolery where everyone and everything is trying to be POLARIZING to troll people who should know by now that they’re getting trolled. But somehow they don’t. Or maybe the drama and negativity of it all is what some people want and crave. I’m Danny Glover on some old I’m too old for this shit…err..shit.

At least the Herd will occasionally just be like ‘man, the dude is good..what are we doing!?’. And throwing Joy Taylor on there is literally a boobie trap for me. But still..I’m out on almost all of it.
