    And I don't necessarily disagree with this assessment, but my point is that ESPN and Schilling had a contract and I am willing to bet money that in his contract it stipulated that if he made inflammatory remarks that he could be suspended and/or terminated. If he said the same about Christians he should be treated the same as he has been for speaking about Muslims.

    The lesson to be learned here is you can only voice your opinion if it's agreed upon by the fucking PC police.

    There are a lot of Jews in the ownership and management of Disney/ESPN. You would think it would be OK to bash ragheads

    sure it is and that is why they never get re-hired or get a settlement from the company that fired them when they make those kind of remarks. here's the deal.....believe what you want to believe but don't let it cost you $. I own furniture and mattress stores and I only.....only speak of politics or hot button issues here on TF or with my closest friends. Nothing on FB, Twitter, etc. No one will come and shop with you because you are a Republican or Democrat but plenty of people will not shop with you if they know you are a Republican or Democrat. I just don't get why these guys can't control their mouths.....if nothing else just to preserve his cushy million dollar a year gig sitting around with other ex-jocks and playing work.
