ESPN has pulled former MLB All-Star Curt Schilling from its coverage of the Little League World Series following a controversial tweet comparing Muslim extremists to German Nazis.

“Curt’s tweet was completely unacceptable, and in no way represents our company’s perspective," ESPN said in a statement. "We made that point very strongly to Curt and have removed him from his current Little League assignment pending further consideration.”

The big deal is that the US is today a much more Muzzified nation than in the past. I wonder how many people in the Us including the know-it-all news moguls know that Hitler and the Arabs were hand in hand in fighting/killing US soldiers in WWII. Shows how history can be twisted for the fast dollar. I have been enjoying watching the Little League play offs but will no longer do so knowing I have to be politically correct to be such involved.

I came across an intro to tonight's game on ESPN. The on-site host said that the Little League World Series is a wonderful event in which it doesn't matter your “race, religion,” etc. He then said “No, we aren't shilling for (ESPN).” That was my exposure to ESPN; otherwise, I switched the channel immediately.

But Muslim extremists ARE similar to German Nazis. ESPN is nutso. The Muslim extremists probably ENJOYED the comparison.

But he lefties on ESPN can go on and on about homosexuals, that offends many of us regular folks, and that’s somehows OK.
Barf!

Curt Schilling is a good man and a bright, courageous patriot.

Curt was right, and I wonder what will happen to Tony (Korn Dog) Kornheiser for his remarks. (So I pulled up this thread as a reminder.)
