#1 'Furur Vikingorum' Think how racist and white privileged the old 47th Division (flying jockstrap) must be.

#2 "ESPN is an inclusive company. ... his employment with ESPN has been terminated,"

Betcha, they don't even notice the irony.

#3 There is no hypocrisy in power. It is self rationalizing.

#7 Liberal free speech is a lie. It is a fascist agenda. Speak out all you want but it has to follow the narative. Otherwise we will destroy you.

#8 ESPN needed Curt Shilling more than Curt Shilling needs ESPN.

Self promoting quippy fanbois who fawn over the highest bid sports agent client of the week. Not sure how many actual athletes are left at the TMZ of sports.

#9 ...and it isn't anti-transgender, it is keep penises out of my daughter's restroom.

The quippy fanbois stuff is in this write up as well. Benched huh, benched is still on the team though not playing. It is like everyone in the media is playing on that lip sync contest game.

#11 He apologized for the picture, not the text, which mocked, actually, the PC police coming to the rescue of the "offended" transgenders.

The problem is not the transgenders, but their "defenders", leaping to "SAVE" them, imagining themselves HEROS, red bathroom towels tied like capes to their necks.

#12 ESPN should stick to jock sniffing. Wonder what Erin Andrew's view is on peeping Tom's having free access to the Ladies room.
