ESPN removed Curt Schilling from covering the Little League world series for a tweet comparing radical Islamists to NAZI's.
Schillings quote appears to be true but who cares.
ESPN is being politically correct.

Ok I stopped watching the LLWS years ago and quit caring altogether when they made a big deal about the girl last year.

ESPN once again allows it leftist politics to pollute a sport.

Did the Nazis object to the comparison?
To: detective
Yeah, how dare he insult the Nazis.
At least they were snappy dressers.

So does this mean ESPN supports Muslim Extremists?

You say potAto, I say potato..., lets call the whole thing off.
This is idiotic.
Radical Islam beheads people, stones them, stones women who are raped, gives single digit aged girls to 60 year old men in marriage, mutilates women’s genitalia...
Yeah, lets not talk about them in hurtful ways...

I’m not surprised that ESPN would be upset over Shilling’s accurate comparison of radical Islam to the Nazis. this is the same network that gave the Arthur Ashe Courage Award to Michael Sam and Bruce Jenner. It’s pretty obvious their primary agenda these days has nothing to do with sports.

We really need to get Trump elected. He will have the overly sensitive PC crowd quivering in straitjackets by the end of his first term.

He posted a pic:
"It's said only 5-10% of Muslims are extremists.
In 1940, only 7% of Germans were Nazis. How'd that go."
And commented:
The math is staggering when you get to true #'s.
And that was enough for ESPN to part ways and feel a former MLB pitcher wasn't worthy of commentary regarding little league games.
To: detective
I agree. What’s not to approve when Schilling is making a completely truthful analogy?

ESPN is going totally PC. Last night I was watching the Cardinal/Diamondbacks game. They had Jessica Mendoza, a former softball player as color commentator. Nothing against softball, my daughter has played for 10 years. But it totally annoys me to have a female voice on men's sports. And a softball player providing color commentary for MLB? Really?
Then at some point, they cut to the studio for an update. Again a high-pitched female voice with a very heavy Spanish accent.
The announcers spent more time last night talking about the swimming pool in the outfield than they did about the game.
I wish ESPN would just use the home-town announcers like the MLB network does. Being a Cardinal fan, I would have even preferred the Arizona announcers to the 3 fools on the air last night.

I’m not a Red Sox fan, but how does Curt Schilling as FCC Commission er in the next administration sound?
