@Thomas_Carrieri I think the biggest difference is that Dalbec was the excuse for not moving at the deadline in 2021. So there’s built in resentment with his poor play
@StoolGreenie “Walking bucket” is maybe the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard. In the 17 playoff games they’ve played this year, how many times did he show he was automatic or you could absolutely count on him for the shot when you needed it? Maybe 4, if you count just 4Q in GM6 @ Philly
A western conference executive calls out LeBron James for controlling the narrative
“He just changed the conversation. Now we're not talking about a sweep; we're talking about LeBron and retirement. He loves to control the narrative.”

Layoffs suck, and it’s probably hard for these ppl to hear but it’s this simple.
If you’re being laid off, ppl aren’t tuning in for you. McAfee does monster numbers independently, he’ll draw ratings back to ESPN immediately.
REPORT: ESPN employees are angry over them hiring @PatMcAfeeShow for 8 figures annually while there are mass layoffs within the company, per @MMcCarthyREV of @FOS.
With one former employee saying;
“It's like your ex getting rngaged a month after the breakup.”
And another said:
“Too soon was the reaction I got from a few friends. Some that were let go are still working there until June,” one ex-ESPNer told FOS. “You are coming to grips with your departure, and then you see a big money signing. It’s not anti-McAfee…it’s your ex getting engaged a month after the breakup.”
Howie Schwab, the famed sports researcher who hosted “Stump the Schwab” on ESPN, hears from old colleagues that they are closely watching the growing salary gap between on-air stars like McAfee, Troy Ailkman (paid $18 million a year), Joe Buck ($15 million a year) and Stephen A. Smith ($15 million a year) and the rest of the company.
“They’re are some people who are upset. The timing of it is curious. They’re paying Aikman, Buck, Stephen A. Smith, and McAfee. And then you’re going to lay people off? Kind of weird,” Schwab said. “Nothing against Pat McAfee. Obviously, he brings Aaron Rodgers to the table. He’s already there because he does ‘College GameDay.’ They’re looking to hit another home run. Meanwhile, their singles hitters are going to be fired.”

This month we said goodbye to my grandma who lived a joyous, amazing 94 years. She was the biggest @dallascowboys fan and I thought this was a beautiful touch at her funeral. I know she would have approved of this! Gonna miss you, Grandma.
