Behind the Line

Jemele Hill is back again...proving to the world her hypocrisy. Michele Tafoya was a guest on Tucker Carlson on FOX News last night. On the program...Michele Tafoya gave her reason for leaving NBC as an NFL sideline reporter.

This singular appearance was enough to bother Jemele Hill. We reveal and react to the tweet from Jemele Hill...and prove her entire statement wrong. We also discuss the difference between the ideology and mentality of Jemele Hill...and the mentality of Michele Tafoya.

The NBA career of Enes Kanter officially came to an end last week...as the Boston Celtics traded him to the Houston Rockets where he was immediately released. We theorize that this was an act of contrition by the NBA...to make up for Daryl Morey's comments about Hong Kong three years ago.

We compare media coverage of Enes Kanter and Colin Kaepernick. We explain how Colin Kaepernick capitalized financially...was given millions of dollars in endorsement money...and the media covers him as a hero.

Whereas Enes Kanter sacrificed his NBA career speaking out against China and has been given no endorsements.

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver was a guest on ESPN this morning with Mike Greenberg. In a rare instance of logic for both Adam Silver and ESPN...the NBA Commissioner spoke logically regarding Kyrie Irving and the New York City requirements.

We play and react to a clip of the commentary from Adam Silver. We credit Adam Silver for speaking against the guidelines in New York City...and for vaguely taking up for Kyrie Irving. We also discuss ESPN allowing Bomani Jones to appear on MSNBC with Joy Reid.

Eileen Gu has quickly become an international superstar and the face of the 2022 Winter Olympics. The mainstream media is praising Eileen Gu as the typical American success story. However...the only problem is Eileen Gu is representing China in the Winter Olympics.

We analyze the background of Eileen Gu...and her rise to stardom. We explain how Eileen Gu is being used to promote an illusion to women in China. We look into her endorsement deals...and discuss how China is using athletes, politicians, and American companies to keep the country divided.

NBC and the NFL couldn't be happier with the Superbowl ratings. The Superbowl on NBC Sunday night set a massive viewership number...leading to increased potential viewership for the Winter Olympics.

Although ratings for the Winter Olympics set a four-year high...when put into perspective Olympics ratings were still not good for NBC. We reveal ratings for the Superbowl...as well as ratings for the Olympics Sunday night on NBC.

We compare our affinity to sports to personal relationships...and explain how the International Olympic Committee has been ignoring their audience for years. Causing millions to turn away from the Olympics.

Candace Owens sent the NBA blogosphere into a panic with her recent comments on LeBron James. Candace Owens was a guest on the Full Send Podcast...and made several comments in regards to LeBron James and his embrace of social justice.

We react to a clip of Candace Owens comments...and explain why she is right in everything she said about LeBron James. We defend Candace Owens from criticism from NBA bloggers...explaining it's not criticism when what Candace Owens is saying about LeBron James is factual.

Sha'Carri Richardson inserted herself into the news cycle Monday afternoon...once again for all the wrong reasons. Sha'Carri Richardson used the Kamila Valieva situation to garner sympathy for herself...and claim the Olympics purposefully held her back last summer.

We reveal and react to several tweets from Sha'Carri Richardson. We explain the difference between her situation in the Summer Olympics...and what's going on with Kamila Valieva. We discuss the disturbing trends amongst failing athletes...who use activism to remain relevant.

The majority of people tuned into the Superbowl Sunday night...to watch the NFL crown its champion...and to witness a phenomenal halftime show. What they didn't expect...was Eminem to turn the Superbowl halftime show into an ode to Colin Kaepernick.

We react to Eminem bending his knee in support of Colin Kaepernick. We also react to a Deadline article by Carron Phillips...who claims Raheem Morris is being held back from head coaching opportunities by the NFL.

Alvin Kamara was involved in an altercation prior to the Pro Bowl in Las Vegas last weekend. Even though there is surveillance footage of the incident...and Alvin Kamara along with his group were temporarily detained by hotel security...he was still allowed to play in the Pro Bowl last Sunday.

We received numerous requests for our thoughts on this situation...so we give our take on the Alvin Kamara incident...and how it was handled by the NFL and Las Vegas Police.

Dana White and the UFC announced Wednesday...that Joe Rogan would be in his usual role for UFC 271 tonight on ESPN+. Apparently...this was too much for some on Twitter to handle. UFC and ESPN announced 48 hours later...that due to a scheduling conflict...Joe Rogan would be absent from the UFC pay-per-view tonight.

We refute the scheduling conflict claim...and reveal the possible reason Joe Rogan was removed from UFC 271. We explain how this could be another example of ESPN overreacting to Twitter.
