I did not defend his comments. I am against the reaction. His comment was stupid and didn't make sense and was in bad taste.
But it was not factually wrong. It was not overtly offensive.
I am not on board with protecting illegal immigrants so much that mentioning them can get you fired. This seems like a slippery slope.
No, it highlights your bigotry and lack of intelligence.The American left the last 10 years: It’s perfectly fine for athletes and announcers to speak about politics. They have a huge platform and they should be able to use that to reach people about important issues.
The American left after an announcers states a fact regarding a present day news story: Leave politics out of sports. He should be fired immediately.
This just highlights the hypocrisy of the left.
PeopleWhat do we call aliens that are here illegally?🙄
What amazes me is people like this Northern character believe they are actually the victims.What’s great about this is the left constantly tries to make life better for marginalized communities in their quests, where the right wants to use them as punching bags for jokes and laughs.
what political statement did he make? I keep listening to it and still haven’t heard it.Who said it hurt anyone? If the guy isn’t smart enough to know that in that job you can’t casually make a pointed political statement on a third-rail political issue, he’s too stupid to have the job.
You aren’t very bright.Certain
what political statement did he make? I keep listening to it and still haven’t heard it.
This is the key point. If he was calling the Sun Bowl in El Paso, TX, it was a flippant, callous, but factually somewhat accurate comment. But why in the world would you say that when covering the Mayo Bowl being held in Charlotte, NC???Not in North Carolina, which is where he was broadcasting from 🙄
In every. Single. Post.What amazes me is people like this Northern character believe they are actually the victims.
I don’t view the influx of illegals at the border to be political or contentious.
You are the second person to state he abuses his wife. Do you guys actually know him in real life?Typical behavior from a spousal abuser though.
It certainly isn't consistent with conservative media and Republican talking points.Well, that’s certainly a unique viewpoint.
You sound like the only outraged person posting in this thread. Most of the rest of us are shrugging our shoulders and saying “damn, what an idiot” for the guy being so obtuse.Too many moronic people gone mad. He makes a factual statement and gets suspended from his job, just plain dumb.
Carry on, I’m sure there are many more things for you get outraged about.
He clearly was attempting to inject his personal feelings into the situation and as mentioned before, doing it during a college football broadcast was not the time or place for it.This is the key point. If he was calling the Sun Bowl in El Paso, it was a flippant, callous, but factually somewhat accurate comment. But why in the world would you say that when covering the Mayo Bowl being held in Charlotte, NC???
“Let’s go to SF with the gays!”
OP: True statement. Atlanta is 47% black!
No, it highlights your bigotry and lack of intelligence.
So, let me get this straight. In one post, you have the gumption to ask me what it is you're defending and then you follow that up by posting garbage like this?
Lol. You're not clever and obviously not a serious adult. Thank you for letting me know you're just a troll and not worth engaging.
But why say it? It has absolutely nothing to do with the game, the bowl, the players, the teams, the location, the region, college football, or even sports in general.Too many moronic people gone mad. He makes a factual statement and gets suspended from his job, just plain dumb.
Carry on, I’m sure there are many more things for you get outraged about.
Would you get some type of discipline from your employer if you went around saying that?Too many moronic people gone mad. He makes a factual statement and gets suspended from his job, just plain dumb.
Carry on, I’m sure there are many more things for you get outraged about.
That's rich in irony.Try to be better.
That's rich in irony.
FTR, I'm not in favor of illegal immigration, but I also recognize most of the people who are desperate enough to try to get into this country are human beings who deserve to be viewed as such. The whole situation is unfortunate, and I respect the fact conservatives want law and order on the border, as I believe the position is justified, but I am tired of people like you talking about illegal immigrants as if they are less than human.
It's you and Northern who need to be better. Shame on both of you. And if either of you claim to be Christian, you really do need to examine your hearts.
You sound intelligent.Hope you 2 don't choke on each other's cum while 69ing.
Fair enough. My apologies. I read your post in haste.When did I talk "about illegal immigrants as if they are less than human."
Please dont make false allegations.
Remember, Northern is well-liked and well-respected around here! Just ask him. 😂
I am well-liked and respected on HROT
I am among the most-liked.
You'll never get how about everything you post just reveals you to be a programmed zombie.El Paso faced a ‘major surge in illegal crossings’ over the weekend, senior border official says
El Paso faced a 'major surge in illegal crossings' over the weekend, senior border official says | CNN Politics
More than 2,400 migrants crossed into the United States near El Paso, Texas, daily over the weekend, according to a senior Border Patrol official, marking what he described as a "major surge in illegal crossings" in the region.www.cnn.com
Fair enough. My apologies. I read your post in haste.
I actually agree the border is a problem and needs to be addressed better than what the current administration has. My only issue is with people who talk about illegal immigrants as if they are loathsome and disgusting. Most aren't.
What the announcer said yesterday was wrong as I mentioned earlier, but your point here is quite true and neither league should be doing this and no justification for it.Unfortunately, the NFL and especially the NBA have openly embraced politics

Come on guys. You need to quit posting crap like the above.
The groups above aren't violating U.S. law and they aren't a current news story that is capturing national attention.
Try to be better.
You sound intelligent.
I'm embarrassed you're an Iowa fan.
Can you give us a specific example?Do you want to let ESPN announcers know that they should not be sharing personal politics on air?
Offended or not offended doesn’t matter here. This guy was dumb. As would be a broadcaster if he were in South Florida and said “here surrounded by unhinged MAGAs.”Politics has been interjected into sports for a long time. The question really is are you offended when you agree with the comments made, or just offended when you disagree.
Factually true statements. And that was the exact thread I was referring to.I don't remember Northern ever talking this way.
Maybe your confusing him with yourself.
Because I remember this from you.
Yeah, because everyone knows the Jews have had a great reputation within conservative talking points.Cougar63 said:

Do you feel the comment was appropriate?
And it’s not a violation of US law to come here and claim asylum. It’s protected by multiple Senate approved treaties we’ve signed, the Refugee Act, and the thousands of pages in the INA.
Just ask @NorthernHawk for the specific cite.
Boy you sure don't miss a chance to express your hatred of this country. Any chance you sliding your bias into every job you've had is part of the reason you've been unable to maintain employment?Offended or not offended doesn’t matter here. This guy was dumb. As would be a broadcaster if he were in South Florida and said “here surrounded by unhinged MAGAs.”
That hypothetical guy should also be fired for being too stupid to have the job.
