As rass said...the most slow news time of the year. The biggest thing I learned (but already kinda knew because of how she'd been sitting in her podcasts and on TV angles) was that Mina Kimes is pregnant.

Hence why they suck. Yeah, it's slow, but there are still tons of sports they could discuss rather than talking about the non-retirement of a guy who no one ever thought was actually thinking about retirement.

Doris Burke is supposedly getting promoted and there are reports that Doc Rivers will be getting hired (again). Only the first step is necessary.

Sage Steele leaving ESPN. If you ranked everyone on two separate 1-10 scales, one in terms of hotness and the other awfulness of comments/opinions, and then added them together, she'd be elite tier.

She doesn't really bust the hotness scale. Or the awfulness scale at least on screen. I'ma go with Alex Rodriguez but maybe that's too much credit to her

Misleading when 20 is the result of two 10s and X could be some add'l variable like "hotness beyond 10".

Only a matter of time before she joins other notable ex-ESPN staffer Jason Whitlock in really getting to the important stories...

How is no one talking about Stephen A. versus Whitlock? I've cried real tears three different times watching clips of various parts (over and over).

That's why I ultimately didn't click "Submit" last night, but I'd watch First Take on a loop for a month if it meant no one in this world ever heard a word Whitlock said.

I guess it's too late now, but you could have actually just closed your eyes and gotten 100% enjoyment out of it because SAS is barely recognizable. I haven't heard him this measured and serious since he talked about big butts.

Co-sign. But I do enjoy a good Whitlock takedown.
