I really missed TMQ yesterday. His football column originally was on Slate.com, and I hope they pick it back up. I also think it's shitty to can someone for something he wrote that was not on ESPN.com.
He criticized Eisner, the head of Disney (which owns ESPN and Miramax-who distributed the movie Kill Bill) and others for placing their desire to make money above their faith by making such violent and morally reprehensible films. (my paraphrase) Eisner, who is jewish, and the other Disney executives criticized, who are too, took offense to this.
Had he criticized non-jews in the same manner, the result would not likely have been the same. I guess jews are, given their stereotype, rather sensitive to charges like this.
TMQ was the best football column on the internet, bar none, and it pisses me off that he was fired!
