On one hand I feel she’s just an insignificant sportscaster... but on the other hand, as a Christian, I am beginning to know what European Jews must have felt in the years leading up to Hitler’s rise to power. There’s a storm brewing on the horizon.
Today it’s just news people and idiot sportscasters. Wait until it becomes okay for Politicians and folks with REAL power in this country. I don’t think it will be too much longer, honestly.
If her employer wants her canned then so be it. But she should be free to say what she wants.
It’s up to the public to boycott her employer if they don’t like what she’s said.
Until more people make a fuss, these kinds of remarks will be taken as OK. If no one makes a fuss, why would her employer fire her?
She’d been immediately fired had she said this instead:
“f... Notre dame”
“f....touchdown Mohamed”
and - the step-aside-because-lightning-is-about-to-strike... “f.... Mohamed.””
Let me help here...i hope you are not another one of those people who believe that christians must forgive everyone. or that that is what defines a christian. pay close attention to the second instance of the word, “IF” in the below verse spoken by Jesus...
Luke 17:3
If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.
this does not apply to the woman in the article, just wanted to show you that christians do not have to forgive automatically in all situations.
I’ve had ESPN2 on this morning, catching up with the exciting games yesterday and I think they mentioned her name at one point but at no point in 2 and a half hours, has she shown her face, now it’s a new hour and we will see.
Shameful behavior, look at Don Imus and lots of these silly incidences. This is a lot worse imho.
She should be immediately fired.
see post 45
Good reasoning, they sure aren’t using her on the air. Probably cheaper to let her draw her 7 figure salary for the rest of her contract.
Dan Jacobson is Jewish.I am have Jewish blood in my family line, my great grandmother was disowned by her Jewish family for marrying a devout Baptist in the deep south. But I am proud of family tree. But the double standard offends me when Jewish persons feel comfortable (and almost compulsory)scorning and mocking Christianity ,but will become outraged at the slightest bit of humor or ridicule regarding their beliefs or traditions. Frankly I feel that the contempt is misplaced and only reinforces stereotypes on both sides of the fence. It also has blinded many to whom the real agents of intolerance are, the left wing dhimmicrats and the agents of destruction arriving at your airports hourly from the the great caliphate.
Exssselent!
That is so true. My sister works in an industry dominated by men. Despite that fact, she has won the fantasy football pool for two years in a row. This year, the guys sent out a really profanity filled e-mail saying how no cell phones were allowed in the draft so no one could call their “boyfriends” for help. As the only woman in the office, my sister e-mailed back to all that “Just cause you ladies can’t call your boyfriends for help during the draft this year, doesn’t mean I’m giving you any points.” No profanity. Just wit.
Dana: "f...him!"
Reporter: "Dana, how many of the ESPN male hosts have you copulated with?"
Dana: "I f.....em all!"
Reminds me of the March Madness basketball brackets at a former employer. The odds-on favorite to win every year was a mid-60s female accountant. She really liked basketball but absolutely loved the gambling aspect of picking her bracket. She would start paying attention to basketball after year end but then put everyone else to shame with her research. It usually paid off...
video?
Ha! Good for her
Matthew 24
Signs of the End of the Age
1Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2”Do you see all these things?” he asked. “I tell you the truth, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
3As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”
4Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,[a]’ and will deceive many. 6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains.
9”Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
Fed to the Lions and crucified, that is how the early Christians had to live.
Sometimes, I think it would be in such stressful times, that true Christianity can flourish even if the numbers of such Christians is smaller as in Roman times, their faith is truer.

You are very perceptive. If Hillary becomes President, you watch how right wing Christians will be demonized and marginalized, because we will oppose her Marxist schemes.
The Clintons tried to defend Bill by creating the myth of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, and blaming Rush Limbaugh for Oklahoma City. They were just gettingn started.
Act II is Hillary, with the same old cronies and a subservient MSM to be her mouthpiece, to transform America into who knows what? She certainly has telegraphed to us all that she stands for change, but what kind of change?
It’s only been 75 years since Hitler’s 1933 Germany, but history has a way of repeating itself when the warning signs are ignored. Germany was an educated technologically advanced society, and they fell for the Fuhrer’s schemes.
With Hillary, it could happen again.
And no, I am not kidding.
Amen and...I bet your sister is well respected being the only woman there. It’s our very own behaviors that determine how people react towards us and that goes for EVERYONE in ways other than sex.
Act and dress like a bimbo at work and that’s how you will be perceived and certainly won’t be taken serious. Act and dress in a professional manner at work and you will be respected and taken seriously. Goes for the men too. What if one of the guys showed up for work in skin tight jeans, open front shirt and that kind of garb? No one would take him seriously either and he would be the male version of the female bimbo. too bad women don’t learn. They are their worst enemies. Sad for them.
