ESPN loses its mind, removes Robert Lee from UVA broadcast

huh??

ESPN Pulls Announcer Robert Lee From Virginia Game Because of His Name

Really? I'm pretty sure that he is not related to Robert E. Lee, giving the fact that he is an Asian American. Can you imagine the look on his face when those idiots at ESPN told him they were removing him from the game.

You can't make this stuff up.

 

That's a holy **** level of sheer stupidity.

 

I'm not surprised ESPN made a stupid move

they've been making these types of moves for a decade plus, add it ot the list

 

C'mon,man,this a joke,right?

 

Nope. Not in the least. The only joke here is ESPN. They were worried that the memes would get out of control. Instead, they created an even bigger PR disaster.

 

In the article it says they decided to remove him for his safety. I'm confused which morons are they trying to protect him from, the morons on the left or the morons on the right?

 

I hear his replacement is Sherman March.

 

ESPN had a mind to lose? Cool story!

 

Wow. I'm stupefied. That is one of the all-time funniest sports-related things I've ever heard.

 

Jeebus, Bob Ley better watch his arse now!

ESPN is just platinum level comedy - - until they try to report on PSi's.

 

Since when have they been known for their attention to fact checking and details?

 

How can you seriously justify this? My god the stupidity. Lee must have been beside himself in that meeting.

 

He was already a household name....now maybe we can all see his face without the beard.

 

Jesus Christ.

The more this kind of knee-jerk, alarmist, PC crap happens from a high-profile business legitimizes the snowflake (left and right) mindset.

 

c'mon guys, it is clear that he is related to Robert E Lee and a supporter of the confederacy.

 

As someone who believes that every single Confederate should be taken down and ground into dust this is insane.
