dollars 2 donuts Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) The only thing this story about an NFL talking head reminded me of...is that John Clayton passed away.

If you aren’t evolving and reinventing than you’re good at your current profession and don’t need to pretend getting fired for sucking at your job is a good thing. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you have to evolve and change at times, sure - definitely a grain of truth - but that is a separate thing from making stuff up and getting fired. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

folz Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 From the article: "La Canfora has also become increasingly political on his Twitter page. His entire timeline is dedicated to Jan. 6, Donald Trump and supposedly racist white people. In sum, La Canfora was hurting the reputation of CBS Sports. The network decides to stay in-house with Jonathan Jones as his replacement. Jones, not exactly a news-breaker, is most known for publishing a column that accused the media of favoring Carson Wentz because he has white skin. Jones posted this story despite pages of examples that debunked his thesis. Nevertheless, the column got Jones’ name out there. So it was worth the lie." Good on you CBS...fire one guy for lack of sources, spreading false stories, and pushing his personal politics...and replace him with a guy who apparently has no sources, and who made his name with a false story that involved personal politics. 🙄 4 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get or create a job in media where you can essentially provide 3rd party advertising space for player agents. In my own business experience.......people who want to be paid for information will seek you out. So I'd assume that is generally how a guy like LaCanfora finds a scout or front office person who can give them dirt for a few bucks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
