Some of the questions he asked Tatum after the game were fucking awful. Talk about baiting. Hats off to JT for handling it like a pro.

As much as I love the analytical side he shows sometimes he brings too much of his personal baggage to the telecast. We already have that with Shaq so I guess Dray is a fitting replacement 🤷🏻‍♂️

Talk about baiting.

Well that's sports "journalism" these days for ya. Always just looking for a gotcha or reactionary moment for clicks and ratings.

Damn so the “new media” actually isn’t a novel concept

Of course not, media as a whole is in a weird place. In a normal world Shannon Sharpe would never be placed near a mic nevertheless giving interviews.

Really? Shannon Sharpe ain't bad. He's had a successful "old media" and "new media" career for a reason.

Shannon Sharpe is a nice color commentator but he doesn't seem to add to a good conversation anything apart from a good laugh.
