He basically was fired today. He was set to be on the air at least another week.

ESPN pulled the plug on him after today's show based on the controversy of yesterday's comments.

What did he talk about today.

No doubt Olbermann made them uncomfortable with his courage to hammer the NFL and their numbnuts, bagworm commish.

Wonder if they would have fired him had he not already quit.

Good question.

I doubt it. I think he chose a bad example to make his point. And chose the wrong words along the way.

His show was too popular to get fired over that.

He was fired......Wonder if this will be a problem with the Fox hiring.

You can`t say or do shit anymore.

Hulk Hogan says the N word he`s done just like that.....You know how much money Hulk Hogan has made for the WWE industry....Here today,gone tomorrow.

Cowherd makes a comment about Dominicans...Done!

No 2nd chances for anyone this day and age.

A person close to the MLB Players Association] who spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the topic, also said the lack of response from ESPN – and Cowherd’s future employer, Fox, has upset its members just as much as the comments, and they will consider withholding cooperation with the networks. ESPN and Fox are national rights holders to major league games, and Fox carries its jewel events, the All-Star Game and World Series.

And due completely to whiny little bitches who'd have not been heard from (blessedly) were it not for the internet giving the SJW (Social Justice Warriors) Attention Whores a soapbox to stand on and proselytize, Falesly project themselves as Moral Authorities, Holier Than Thou Most Righteous judgers of their fellow man.

This Generation will be remembered as being the winiest and most pathetic & sad in the entire history of Human Existence. By a very wide margin.

Those hassling Cowherd as result of his Valid Comments, Hulk for a mis-speak (which humans do) of The "N-Word" (what are we? 3 Years Old? "N-Word"....gtfo) are the main reason for the existence of the term "STFU".

They ain't gonna stfu though, they are like wolves that have tasted blood. That blood in relation to these pathetic whining No Life Having attention whores is the possibility of that "15 Minutes of Fame", getting on TV or their name in print. Terribly Sad state of affairs this, to have to live amongst such pathetic busybodies is awful and very embarrassing. The Shame of being an SJW is far greater than those they attack and who's lives they destroy. Over completely meaningless bullshit. These pathetic snitches disgrace us. I wish their was a way to make this stop, this attacking people over meaningless crap. This SnitchLife these sad souls lead....I wish these low intelligence snitches didn't exist so we'd stop getting embarrassed before the eyes of the whole planet.

That a comparatively HIGH percent of Dominican Youth, in comparison to much of the rest of the world, receive less or lower quality education is a fact. Jose apparently having trouble grasping that and the fact that this is all that Cowherd alluded to seems to support the contention that Dominicans might be among the least sharp tools within the shed.

There you go. One fat woman in Poughkeepsee posts indignation to facebook then a whole line-up of folks wanting to demonstrate how righteous they are (and appease the whiners) line up behind her fat ass and the same sad dance happens yet again. Every single effin day this crap. Completely Humiliating. Sure, Death brings sadness at the leaving behind of Loved Ones and what Joy their is to life but one cannot debate that escaping the presence of the massive number of Busybody attention whore snitches amongst us here on this planet will be an absolute blessing.

I listened objectively, again, giving Benefit of The Doubt to the snitches all up-in-arms over what he said and all I heard was valid description of the state of the education system & Dominican Society. Could he have phrased what he said better? Yes. Might he be guilty even of choosing a poor way of saying what he did? Yes.

I don't hear "racism" though, no matter how hard I try. I hear an accurate description of Dominican Society & Education there. Youth in these 3rd World Countries often have to work very young, other reasons exist that they don't attend school as long as many other country's kids.

On top of these facts the Domincan School System can accurately be described as "lacking"...by comparison to most the rest of the world.

These are simple truths. Thats reality.
