Rachel Nichols and Michelle Beadle press passes blocked

[QballLobo]

but Floyd wasn't late, he was answering questions outside

That was also proven false, he took a few questions before he went in but he was nowhere to be found hours before. Swanson said that for PR damage control.

You might find him annoying, but that doesnt make him a racist.

In fact, none of what you just makes him a racist, and half of what you just said is blatantly false. I watch First Take too you know. Im well aware of his arguments.

Where were you when he was defending Marc Cuban for saying that a Black kids in a hoodie makes him scared enough to cross the street?

Stephen isn't racist. He is racialist. I.E. he tends to bring up race in things that have nothing to do with it. Bojangles is my boy, he just has the wrong terminology.

Moral of the story is this, if this isn't the clearest of ESPN agendas, I don't think you'll ever see the plot then. Domestic Violence is wrong, no two ways about it. The problem is that this is years in the past. Don't claim to be the worldwide leader in sports, past, present and future yet still be years late to the party to want to report something. No one wasn't even thinking about the DV issues until ESPN dove head first into it. Beadle, especially her, hypocritical of the coverage of this when he fraternizes with both Steve Austin and Jim Lampley, men that have had their own DV issues. They can miss me with their selective social stances and sympathies.

Why are people acting surprised? It wouldn't be the first time a new wave feminist lied about something to garner sympathy and get attention.

Very true!!!

Why would a network bring up a DV incident that occurred years ago at this point in time?

Purely hypocritical effort by all involved.

[AllBoxingAD]

ESPN didnt give a **** about it when Floyd went to jail in 2012.

Now in 2015 he is fighting Manny and its important to talk about it?

Really? And you guys dont see the agenda huh?

I like Rachel Nichols as a BASKETBALL Sideline Reporter, also think she does good interview despite having a boring perosnality but for the people Piling on who don't know what is true or not but because they hate Mayweather they're running with this story...RIDICULOUS!

No disrespect to Mayweather but I serious doubt he even knows WTF Credentials are nor does he control who gets them. If Mayweather had control over press then Jim Lampley would not be calling this fight

[joseph5620]

Probably because they're sports journalists and Charlie Sheen, Mel Gibson, and Sean Penn aren't athletes, moron.

SMH.

If that's the case where is their outrage for MMA athletes?
