    I heard that audio of her and didn't hear anything racist...I heard a woman who was mad that her gig that she'd worked hard for and was in her contract, was being taken from her just for "diversity's" sake...she was mad at the executives, not the lady...I don't understand why people dragged Rachel, I'm glad there's many of us who got where she was coming from.

      Understood the whole situation from the beginning. She never stated anything that was suspect, or questionable, but instead hysteria ran with it.

She was pissed that she was being asked to step aside after 25 years of working her way into her dream job because ESPN wanted to throw a black woman out front after they were put on blast for a lack of diversity.
      Rachel Nichols is responsible for a half dozen black men getting a shot in the media and a couple women too.
      I, like most sane black people, do not want someone thrust into a spot just bc they are black so they can make a shitty company look good. I'm especially against it when it upends someone who has put in the work and is fully qualified, in fact more qualified than the replacement. And I respect her right to bitch about it to whoever she had the private conversation with. And if you listened to that audio and pulled racism from them you sir are reaching for race bait.

    I stopped watching ESPN in my house about 9 years ago. I use to have ESPN on every TV day and night until the Ray Ricse situation. I began to realize what ESPN was and how sports leagues particularly the NFL uses ESPN to blackball players. Ray made a horrible mistake. It was address by the law and in court. As of today Ray Rice record is clear and clean. It does not excuse his behavior that day with his now wife. They're still happy and married and as they both said nothing like that ever happened before and so far after, or we all would have heard about it by now. It was a mistake, but ESPN helped the NFL to blackball Ray Rice. T.O. was blackballed becauee he said negative truths about his QBs. T.O. never had off the field issues with the law, no drugs or alcohol issues and never beat or assaulted a woman. T.O. was made out to be a monster by ESPN and stupid people fed into it. They try to do the same with OBJ. The guy is not a bad person. Never had any issues with the law but ESPN has turned OBJ into a Monster the same way they did T.O.

      I’m with you on the TO part but you’re wrong asf on Ray Rice. Idc if it was a 1 time occurrence, his actions were horrendous. There’s no way to defend what we saw on that video. Just because it’s not on his record doesn’t mean he was justified. Of course she’s going to stay with him afterwards, he’s her meal ticket…so that means nothing. And if it was a “mistake” as you tried to label it, then how come he didn’t show any remorse or sorrow after he hit her? How come he dragged her off the elevator like a cheap wh0r3 who passed out in his hotel room (he’s obviously strong enough to have picked her up). Then after, he left her on the ground unconscious hanging halfway out the elevator…and to top it off he kicked her legs out the way. Gtfoh…he deserved to be blackballed for his despicable actions.

    • @madboyreadynow28
      @madboyreadynow28 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@FLValentino You clearly didn't NOT read what I wrote and understood my point. Calling Ray Rice a meal ticket proves your ignorance. They have known each other since before Ray was in college. Her family brung him into their home as a child. Again this was not the point I made on why I stopped watching ESPN. Its so important to read and comprehend and to also educate yourself on the facts. No one defended Ray's actions. I was making a point about what ESPN does to certain athletes. You still don't get it do you?

    • @FLValentino
      @FLValentino ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@madboyreadynow28 I read your lil message and it wasn’t intricate, so it’s easy to understand your point. I couldn’t care less that you stopped watching ESPN, my response only addressed the way you spoke about Ray Rice and the fact that you feel he was treated unfairly…and based on the video footage you’re wrong. If a man knocks his wife unconscious and literally treats her like a bag of trash, then he deserves backlash from the media and his employer (the Ravens/NFL). You called his actions a mistake. A man who made a mistake by hitting his wife out of reflex or sudden anger would immediately show remorse, and it’s evident that he did not feel that way based on the reasons I laid out.
      Also, it doesn’t matter how long she knew the man or what her family did for him, he was still her meal ticket. The term ‘meal ticket’ is not exclusive to those who met their spouse after said spouse obtained wealth. It applies to anyone who experiences financial wealth based on their relationship to the wealthy individual. If it weren’t for Ray she likely wouldn’t be rich, which makes him her meal ticket. The same term could also apply to his family members or longtime friends.

    I remember at the time, no one in the comments of any video I saw thought she was racist. She was clearly pissed off that her job was being threatened, not because she was bad at her job but because of politics and diversity metrics. That was her point. I have no idea what went on behind the scenes but I was so curious what her take was because everything that was leaked and how she appears on tv etc. She just seems like a nice person who was genuinely enjoying her work. I have no idea why they actually took her off, maybe some internal conflict... But yeah I thought she was fun to watch and was shocked that this was the best they could do to get rid of her.
