Derek Fisher will prove to be a much better NBA head coach than Steve Kerr.

Yet no one will call him out and he'll just go on spewing shit out of his mouth without fear. God I hate him.
I think that is the point.
I am notoriously bad about predicting what will happen in sports, TV, and movie plots. How do I get this job?

Calling him out is exactly what he wants. The more attention he gets, the stronger he gets.
People really need to give him the Paul Anka treatment.

If Fisher had the warriors roster he'd be HOF like Kerr has been anointed as. Likewise Kerr would probably have the Knicks at the same level of mediocrity.

He didn't have the same roster. Steph hadn't made his deal with the devil yet.

So I don't have a link and don't feel like finding one, but I saw the ESPN told their employees not to discuss the Peyton Manning stuff.

It wasn't like an Outside the Lines type report but there was a brief segment.

I remember the source now, a Boston radio show said they were told by an ESPN employee that they weren't allowed to discuss it.

I pretty much stop listening to sports talk entirely when it's not baseball season.

Same here, I basically only listen if something big is going on with the Red Sox, as that's the only time it will be anything other than Pats talk.
