I watched the entire thing and hoooooooooly poo poo does SAS go in, and Whitlock has a few toadies on Twitter saying SAS doesn't address anything, but highlights include: -Whitlock apparently begged SAS to come work for him when he was trying to start The Undefeated and trying to make it "the black Grantland". SAS apparently literally has emails of Whitlock begging him to come work with him, and tells the story of Whitlock trying to get other people to convince SAS to talk to him. SAS claims to have receipts and frankly in this case I 100% believe him. -SAS pointing out that NO ONE will work with Whitlock. Namedrops Jemele Hill, Skip Bayless, Chris Broussard, and others. -SAS has an honorary doctorate from WSSU, points out his work with HBCUs, and apparently he and others have collaborated on scholarship funding worth many, many millions of dollars and affecting thousands of students which is obviously more value than Whitlock has ever given to anything. -Literally, and I do mean literally, calls Whitlock a bitch, a bastard, a piece of poo poo, and Cain. loving CAIN. -Brings up the fact that Whitlock doesn't even try to discuss sports anymore, that he's basically the sports media equivalent of a drama YouTuber because no one gives a gently caress about what he has to say on anything of substance. SAS didn't use those words but he may as well have and he's right. -Essentially just says Whitlock is an opportunist for profit, which again, no lies detected. -Specifically mentions Broussard as someone who's basically a saint (SAS says if Broussard wasn't in sports, SAS thinks he'd probably be a man of the cloth) and even he can't loving stand Whitlock. -Points out how MULTIPLE heads of both ESPN and Fox also cannot abide the fucker. -SAS LITERALLY HAS IT IN HIS CONTRACT that he'll never work with Whitlock.  -Basically says if Whitlock had anything of value to say he'd still have a platform, and you can hate SAS all you want, but at least he brings something to the table that breeds success within the field (more or less what SAS says, not what I'm saying, though I think he's pretty much right). Points out he's destroying Whitlock's YouTube sub count on something that's a hobby SAS loses money on in like, less than a year compared to what Whitlock has amassed in several years and is his entire career because he can't get work anywhere because he's a piece of poo poo and nobody likes him. There's obviously petty, grandstanding SAS-ness in there, but considering who he's taking down, it's wildly entertaining, and on this particular subject SAS tells zero lies.

The whole thing's remarkable in many ways but man I was expecting at least some of the big animated SAS but nope, dude is in complete, unsettling, dead-serious calm almost the whole way and man everything he says hits all the harder. quote:He’s the dude that’s going to have a funeral and ain’t gonna be no pallbearers.

He talked for like an hour about Whitlock and didn't even really say anything that bad about him when there is just a TON of poo poo he could have brought up. It's just a petty personal feud. Also LMAO at him texting every day with Mark Levin and admitting that.

It was Smith dancing around the idea for 45 minutes which is the most Stephen A confrontation imaginable.

I dunno, IMO he said plenty considering he was probably skirting around what he couldn't say without REALLY pissing off his bosses. Plus hearing him repeatedly call him a piece of poo poo extremely SAS-ishly is worth the price of admission IMO.

gotta say I figured GeneralDog would be the first one to white knight Whitlock also lol Awful Announcing posted:[Shannon] Sharpe proceeded to note that he’s not alone in ignoring Whitlock, claiming Outkick founder and conservative radio host Clay Travis doesn’t pay him any attention either. that is loving hilarious that even Clay Travis wants nothing to do with the guy

The Lafayette market also got a deal done so now the entire state of Louisiana and the Gulf South areas of MS, AL, and part of FL finally get the Pels games. Games were restricted to only the greater NOLA area before this. Only took 20 loving years to expand! https://twitter.com/rondaadonn/status/1745515738264203413?s=20

DJExile posted:gotta say I figured GeneralDog would be the first one to white knight Whitlock At his core he's still just a petulant low-rent sports page hack like Jay Mariotti or Bill Plaschke, which which I don't think people on any part of the political spectrum have much time for these days.

It was funny when SAS specifically tried to make sure he didn’t say anything bad about The Blaze but still said Whitlock only works there because he can’t get a job anywhere else lol.

https://twitter.com/LeBatardShow/status/1745476563397738755 Dan being dressed as Richard Simmons while giving what's clearly a very heartfelt response to it all is just incredibly surreal quote:Le Batard later revealed that the only time he had ever used John Skipper’s personal phone number when he was the president of ESPN was to vouch for Whitlock before the company rehired him in 2013. Whitlock’s second stint at “The Worldwide Leader” lasted just two years and included his tumultuous run as the editor-in-chief of The Undefeated.

Peak LeBatard was when it was at the Clevelander and it was Dan and Stu and the shipping container with a single open seat for a guest. And when he would send Chris Cote out to the ocean or they made Dan run down the road. There is just too loving much going on now. Also, what the gently caress is up with ATH? Other than Plaschke and Blackistone who are these people? Not just today I’ve tried to watch it and the only time I enjoy it is when Emily Kaplan is on.

I guess because of the explosion of podcasts and NFL live and such most of the people are too busy doing other things.

I applaud Around the Horn for not using the same talking heads they've used for 20 years, but the new folks don't have as big of personalities.
