Has this been/will this be discussed an any AM1000 shows today or is it off limits?

If anyone on W&S brings it up Waddle will probably run out the studio screaming "I'm not part of this discussion!"

Maybe Finji can become a regular on Matty's podcast.

Does he have his own IceGirl as well?

Too Kermit the Frog like.

Now I'm a member of the tribe as well? My day's looking up

and part Lugan, too

I just love that people are actually losing their jobs because they get so mad at the goofball in the White House.

Trump wins again!

Was Finfer really on the air that much anyway?

Sounds like he's been tweeting about politics for months.

When you're Finfer, and the company asks you not to do it, then don't do it. Or you get fired.

We have enough people doing the Trump jokes and insults. Finfer isn't more clever or funny then the thousands doing it. So why risk your job?

Then again, he might have wanted to get fired. Like he said, he had no future at ESPN 1000.

Even after Jemele Hill has gotten in trouble (reprimands, suspension) for tweets about the President being racist and calling for boycotts, this moron decides to do the same thing.

And, as Finfer stated, he knew ESPN had its own social media guidelines. Just looking at his tweets, he seems like he could be a little less d-baggy.

Still, I have an issue with employers telling people what they can and can't say outside of work. I understand that employers have their interests, but the ability for a person to share his or her beliefs is an interest of everyone. Employers are the last group of people who should be telling us how to think--that's a disaster.

Well, now Finfer gets to tweet whatever the hell he wants. Hope it was worth it.

They weren't telling him how to think. They were just saying keep it to yourself and stick to sports.

ESPN has put themselves in a tricky bag with their new policy. "No political comments on twitter". So that's the policy. And they fire people for ripping Trump. Fine.

What if there is another mass shooting at an elementary school and a bunch of kids die? And an ESPN employee tweets "Our Government needs to have stronger gun control to save kids lives."

Does that person get fired?

It's gotta be all or nothing if you have such a policy so I would assume that type of tweet would get you fired.

Beardown do you think ESPN would’ve tolerated any of their hosts calling Obama a Muslim terrorist during his presidency ?

For what it's worth, they fired Schilling for his anti-Muslim Facebook meme, and let's face it, every other offensive political thing he had said during his time there. I think all this was before a clear-cut social media policy from the network regarding politics.
