Michael Wilbon, sports commentator for ESPN could be great. Right now, he’s just mediocre. Yet he has the potential to be great. One of his good friends is Charles Barkley, a man grounded in common sense, patriotism, understanding of the big picture, and grateful for the many opportunities that have been given to him. That one fact, in and of itself, should be enough to catapult Wilbon into greatness.
Wilbon’s mother was a school teacher. Again, this should be an advantage in this country. Having a well-educated parent helps the child to be well on his way to the next tier of society. Another brick in the wall of greatness.
The man from Chicago, Illinois graduated from one of the premier colleges in the country, Northwestern. Another brick.
He wrote for the Washington Post beginning in 1980 and graduated to television in 2001 when he became a sports analyst on ESPN and ABC, juggling three jobs. Eventually, he went to full-time work on television. Another brick.
Finally, he has co-hosted his own show, Pardon the Interruption, with Tony Kornheiser. Another Brick.
Read on the next page about how this man who should be great has just proven why he is merely mediocre, as he calls Jerry Jones of the Cowboys a SLAVE OWNER!
When will we, if ever, get over slavery. LOL Slavery and racism seem to be quite worn out these days. People just become desensitized to the terms from hearing it over and over again.
Yep a slave owner that pays his slaves millions of dollars!
Need to dump this joker wilbro
Oh mr. stupid Idiot I wish he paid me what he paid his slaves you stupid pile of c**p
Since the original players were white and the African Americans fought to get on the roster I’d say it is voluntary slavery. Even paid slavery. More like a job that a free man gets. Which has now become more like an overpaid gladiator who feels entitled to call his employer a slave owner.
Did slaves get paid millions of dollars a year?
Well what isn’t racist today? He is hardly a slave owner, the black players can walk off the team right now and go back to selling drugs, mugging people and if from Chicago, get to killing each other.
If the owners were “Slave Owners” the black players would be tied to a whipping post !!! How can they think they are slaves when they are being paid MILLIONS !! The players can leave anytime they want to !!!
Seem’s to me all you sportscaster’s ,are predudice SHUT UP AND TALK ABOUT SPORT’S,THAT’S OUR JOB,NOT OPINION’S ,REALLY WOLPON YOU SUCK !
That’s ESPN logic. People like this idiot is why they are losing viewers. I quit watching when they started the Trump bashing.
