First take is the biggest joke on tv. For the last 3 years i have asked to come on that program. I have sent my credentials to ESPN in hopes of debating Skip Bayless. ESPN has informed me that my "lack of television experience and debating would not be in the best interest of ESPN or it's affiliates." In other words, they have checked me out and they really aren't sure where i would come from. I have told them that i pull no punches and give credit where credit is due, unfortunately, i can beat skip at about anything he says.
ESPN is a joke. My friend, Jason Whitlock has a lot to say on the matter. Jason plays the race card sometimes, but he is usually right in what he says. And you can chalk up Dan Patrick and others that have left ESPN in HOPES of a brighter future. Thank goodness they've been fine without them.
