Joe was ready to go off with an opinion until Ish related that pay cut situation hypothetically to Joe's own podcast business. Then all the sudden it was "oh i get it"

Right. Dude tries to play both sides of the fence. He won’t hesitate to talk about how he is the face of ESPN and gets all of these celebrities/athletes jobs on the show but as soon as there are firings, he says he has nothing to do with those. So, apparently, ESPN lets him control to make all the purchases on the company’s credit card but they don’t allow him to make any returns on anything he purchases … Right.

Stephen A is a good man. Idk if I could do this for a multi-billion dollar company. I know its “doin it for other employees” but why are the billionaires not taking the hit? My brain would FOR SURE first be more focused on why the little guy (Stephen A) has to give money back while the company is still doing billions of dollars worth of stock buybacks. And I think my principles would be focused there above all cuz thats a major major issue in this capitalist society.

@cnsmooth 9 ай бұрын

I just said this in a less intelligent way. This is Capitalism in it's barest form. As rich as he is, he took a pay cut so that someone far richer than him, who spends his days chilling on a yacth in a tropical climate, doesnt have a couple millions less in his bank account this year. Yes he probably saved some of the workers their jobs, but the powers that be couldve done that without him having to make that scarifice.

Max is my boy but Max wasn't it for First Take as it had started to become stagnant. Max had some wild takes that just wasn't it at all. Although they were still number one but I even began catching myself going to Undisputed more because it was fresher and evolved more because of the takes that Uncle Shay had. Even if Max was still on First Take, it was just a matter of time because it was going to come to an end, rather a few months or years. Think about it even the Key, J Will and Max show started to get boring after a way and I completely tuned them out.
