Jeezus. Maybe I need to use the stupid smiley faces so you can understand.
Right....but wasn't that avenue to unemployment paved with much greater ease when ESPN is telling the world that you abuse your players?
Would that story have been newsworthy without James's relationship to the broadcasting giant?
You’re a mother-fathering Prophet.
From another board (You know where)…
Apparently this was included in the print version of the New York Times today, but was later retracted from the online version.

A person with direct knowledge of the tension between Leach and Texas Tech said that Craig James used his position at ESPN to lobby Texas Tech coaches for more playing time for his son.
“He called the coaches and implored them to play his son more and insinuated he would say good things about them on the air if they played his son more,” said the person, who was granted anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the issue. “At one point Leach said to James, ‘The next time your father leaves any of us a voice mail to that effect we’re going to play it to the entire team.’ ”
The person said Leach’s attorney sent a letter to ESPN executives informing them of this. An ESPN spokesman said that ESPN was not immediately available to comment.
It isn’t much of a leap from “more playing time for my little lazy-ass, pussy, girlie-son = good things said on air” to “my lazy-ass, pussy, girlie-son continues to ride the pine = bad things said on air.”
If I were CJ’s attorney, I’d advise him to set up a group in his cell phone that includes all the women he has phone numbers for, go all Salsbury on them, announce he’s taking a
CUM LOA from ESPiN, and then check into rehab.
