But here's what I wish more people would grasp about this mess: This disgraceful incident is not just the doing of one horrible person.

Yes, the person who delivered the message has long been a clown with no credibility. But that's what Fox Sports is paying him for. They're not paying him to break down sports, they're not paying him to analyze sports and they're not paying him to talk sports. They are paying him to get attention—any kind of attention.

When he decided to rip Dak Prescott for addressing his mental health issues that intensified after Prescott's brother killed himself, he didn't do that all on his own. A producer most likely knew the comments were coming. His cohost just sat there and let him drop his pathetic take, uninterrupted. And his company refused to discipline him.

Before I continue, think about the sentence I just typed. Just think about it for a few seconds: "When he decided to rip Dak Prescott for addressing his mental health issues that intensified after Prescott's brother killed himself."

Do you understand how much of a vile person you have to be do that?

But, still don't just blame the person delivering the bullshit. You need to blame the people paying the person to deliver the bullshit.“
