I'm all for taking down the monuments but this is a pretty stupid overstep.

I don't think there is even a unit of measurement available that can accurately describe the amount of stupidity this is.

Could you find that ESPN announcement outside of reddit? The link that is provided in that post gives me an error. Originally Posted by Xandrigity

I can believe people would be this stupid. But I need an apology from ESPN to confirm their stupidity.
Is his middle initial even E?

The article doesn't say he's pulled because of some leftist backlash. Your desperation for ammo in your argument is pathetic.

i know it is very hard to grasp what our societies snow flakes has forced this nation to become but it is as real as it gets this is our reality Originally Posted by Algy
here is the statement from ESPN
Published on Aug 22, 2017
ESPN ISSUES OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON MOVING ROBERT LEE FROM VIRGINIA GAME:
“We collectively made the decision with Robert to switch games as the tragic events in Charlottesville were unfolding, simply because of the coincidence of his name. In that moment it felt right to all parties. It’s a shame that this is even a topic of conversation and we regret that who calls play by play for a football game has become an issue.”
Additionally, I had a conversation with a senior employee at ESPN who wanted to make it clear that this was not a mandate or a demand from the company, that it was a people first decision and that assignments are switched all the time.
Multiple Outkick fans inside ESPN MSESPN decided to pull an Asian college football announcer named Robert Lee off the William and Mary at University of Virginia college football game because they were concerned that having an ASIAN FOOTBALL ANNOUNCER NAMED ROBERT LEE would be offensive to some viewers.

I'm glad it happened, just to see how butthurt people get over it. ESPN can do what they want, and it's not like he was fired.
