I don't care if his last name was Hitler it should have 0 effect on the opportunities and assessments he receives. You must have missed the story about ESPN explaining Robert Lee the commentator asked to be moved to a different game and a mutual decision was reached between him and the network. I know ESPN brought it up, but you can see here it was his choice to switch games: Quote:According to an ESPN executive, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the situation, ESPN asked Lee if he would be more comfortable calling another game but gave him the option to stay. Lee chose to switch assignments, and ESPN accommodated him. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nc...592458001/ |
