Wild that you think this had anything to do with this. How do you guys function thinking literally everything is some woke conspiracy? RGIII also got let go.
It went from ālove is loveā to ruining your life if you disagree pretty quickly.
Do a Google search of her name and look at news. You will see several reports, all but one saying in the headline that she was let go for budgetary reasons.
And then there is the one with a different headline, from Fox News, saying she was fired and mentions her speaking out about trans issues.

Yeah, impossible. That stuff never happens! Great point.
I guess RG3 is also a MAGA nut, eh? He got canned today too. But donāt let facts get in the way of a good story.
Also, Iām still not convinced Riley isnāt a transmission. Weird face, no boobs, no ass, shoulders wider than the mole on Ginny Sacās ass.

Did you hear someone say Sam Ponder was MAGA or do you live in a fantasy world of strawmen?
Dude, your exile from the political board clearly weighs upon your desire to bait. You are the message board equivalent of a trench coat flasher. You cannot help yourself.
Still curious to hear more on his non renewal. I was indifferent towards him but most considered him a rising star.
I guess stephen a or mcafee needed a few more million. Maybe they are paying to bring back worthless skip. No telling except corporate America is wrought with stupidity.
OP's thoughts are a microcosm for how this all works. For the people in power it's always about one thing: money. Meanwhile, the working class dolts continue to focus on their culture wars instead of how the Corporatocracy we've become continues to screw all of us over.
Happy Friday, y'all!!

He wasn't well reviewed or received on last year's pre game nfl coverage.
He also said a lot of goofy and borderline inappropriate things commentating games. I thought they were funny but some people may not have.
As for Ponder, it is interesting how all the very few conservative women seem to be the ones sent packing. She clearly wasn't fired due to performance like RG3 was.
Totally agree that all of the division about race, sexual orientation, etc is just a tool to keep people from seeing the true thing that separates us and that is money. The rich and powerful want us feuding over nonsensical stuff so we don't have time to come together to fight the real divider of this country.....wealth.
I believe this is referred to as the Roman circus, ultimately leading to the downfall of the Roman Empire. We currently have it where only like 10% of the population can afford a nice new house - not good.
Also Sam Ponder was hot.
Classic Liberal: Sam Ponder was hot and talented. I donāt see why they would let her go. If this was political, that sucks and is wrong.
Typical conservative: Sam Ponder was hot and talented. She voiced an opinion that the woke religion hates and now she is fired. Not cool.
Wokester: I am sure ESPN was just making a sensible business decision. So shut up.

I think RG3 was two fold: he wasn't very good, relying way too much on trying to make puns and jokes, especially on the college games.. and he apparently got ousted because he took a shot at Paul Finebaum that didn't go over well.
Honestly king of amazing he got this to begin with

You know, as hard as it is for feeble minds to grasp, you can have two different rationales for two different firings.
She made the show "Sunday Countdown" and it's not debatable. It's obvious why they fired her.
They'll probably have some dude cross dressed running the program now.

Finebaum gets way too much clout there. He's pushing 70 and his show is boring. I do like him when discussing the playoff or the sport with other analysts.
And now that I think about it, ESPN is about to the point where they are gonna trot Corsos Norma Bates like corpse out to do GameDay another decade so I guess Paul is still a spring chicken at 69.
You are being manipulated by a headline. The Fox headline says:
ESPN fires Sam Ponder, who spoke up about trans inclusion in women's sports, and analyst Robert Griffin III
The headline ties the firing of Ponder to her previous statements in an attempt to connect the two. It does not say that is why she was fired. In fact, the article itself says "A source familiar with Ponder and Griffinās firings told Fox News Digital they were business decisions...Ponderās lone show was "Sunday NFL Countdown."The headline is clickbait and everyone in this thread is falling for it.
āBusiness decisionā is clear as mud. What is clear is that no one in this thread has expressed a justification for getting rid of Ponder. I donāt watch the talking head shows, but every time I have seen her, she has been sharp and talented. āBusiness decisionā can mean anything.
What is also clear is that ESPN has made ābusiness decisionsā about other talented women who were vocal about their traditional perspectives.

Finebaum just seems like an extremely bitter SEC/Bama fan. He gets into such pissing matches on his shows and with others. I don't understand how he's in the position he's in. He's a huge hater.

Sage Steele said the world is going to see the true Samantha Ponder after ESPN fired the āSunday NFL Countdownā host.
