The # of blacks who got on twitter afterwards and tried to make Rachel out to be a racist was nasty

It wasn't racist.

It wasn't even necessarily about Maria.

Rachel felt she put in her time and I get that.

This would be like TNT having JVG doing the sideline interviews and having Chris Haynes call the games.

It's a demotion and I wouldn't have been happy either.

If it was Pablo, Jorge Sedano, Izzy.....

I'm sure Rachel would have had the same reaction.

The media spin when the Nichols story sure made it sound racist.

But Nichols doesn’t have a racist bone in her body. She gets it.

Undecided. I keep seeing it and I like some Little Debbie snacks (my son is a big fan of those peanut butter bars)...but I haven't bought any just yet.

You been back to that sub sammich place I told you about in 2017? The spot in Perris?

Thoughts on Moses Brown?

I've only actually watched him play once before yesterday.

It was when he was with OKC and he lit the Clippers up.

He seemed a bit more graceful yesterday.

But, the competition was lacking.

I think we need another 5.

Also: I love fake Lamelo Ball, Preston.

If his shot starts falling, he's got a chance.

Really good passer already.

I haven’t watched him much, so take my opinion with a grain of salt.

But I just don’t think he fits the modern NBA. Don’t think he has a position he can defend well, and don’t think he does enough offensively to make up for it.

Could be wrong, but that is my impression.

Not since I discovered Rock N Jennys.

It doesn't help when Taylor is straight up lying about what Nichols said.

I respect that Barnes and Jackson gave her the opportunity to clear the air the right way.

Kudos to her staying out of Taylor inventing shit that wasn't said. I'd find it difficult to do so when someone is sullying my name.

Barnes and Jackson said from the start that she isn't that kind of person. TNT/NBATV should have hired her

Thought it was odd that Maria Taylor tried to do that.

Rachel Nichols has been around NBA players for years.

If that were an issue, it would have come out by now.

I hadn't really dug into it much until today. Listening to Taylor speak on it publicly the way she is but refuse to speak to Nichols makes me not respect her.

Like I said....Robin roberts is a pro. She wouldn't do this bullshit. So if you're trying to emulate her you're fucking up.

Holy shit @Mecca

Yusuf kneed that dude like 6 times in a row and then submitted him. That was nuts.

Far too many people of all races and political persuasions are WAY too quick to make things racial.

Yep.

....and it pissed me off.

That was some divide and conquer bullshit, and like @bksballer89 said about twitter, black folks fell for it.

McKenzie Dern getting touched early.

China putting out some good UFC talent.

Her legs are huge for a woman her size

Dern dominated the 5th but she was down going in.

Yup.

Dude, I can't wait to watch Welli smash Esparza.

Thug Rose vs Esparza was the worst fight I've ever seen.

Both deserved a loss, neither deserved the belt.

Trash.
