Who Are The Conservative Voices In The Sports Media

Not that I'm a right wing guy.  But when you watch these talking head shows on ESPN you realize that a lot of them have left leaning or liberal points of view.  It just seems like you can't find anyone who has a conservative viewpoint in the sports media.  It just seems like everyone is in the same group think.

Chuck Norris, since he was a judge in Dodgeball.

Crazy Curt Schilling, Ditka, Kurt Warner, Chris Colinsworth, Aikman, Al Michaels, Steve Young, Bradshaw and Jim Nantz are all Conservatives, or I remember reading they had at least donated money to the party. For some reason, I think I read in ESPN's book a few years ago that Bob Ley was as well, or at least a right leaning moderate. I remember Greg Anthony catching a little heat as a black guy supporting Mitt Romney. Coach K is a huge conservative for another basketball name. 

Big name NFL guys like Peyton, Brady, and Elway are all republicans, or thought to be in Brady's case. 

 

As far as expressing more conversative viewpoints, you might find a lot of these guys are more left leaning socially, but hard right fiscally. The social issues will hit the airwaves, not the money side.

When it comes to the millions of $$ these guys are pulling, of course they're wanting the 1% guys in office. Keeps them from having to look for offshore banking alternatives. 

And Jim Nantz is such a knee-pad nut-hugging putz, I almost throw up trying to watch the Masters. The fugging faux drama and whispering like he's standing right next to the guy putting is such bullshit. Why is he whispering when the guy is putting on the third hole about 5 miles away?

I'll bet he's secretly trying to pull a membership invite to Augusta...

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
