View Full Version : I Miss Hearing Deion Sanders Talk On NFL Today
isiahthomas 10-01-2005, 04:29 PM I can't believe he came outta retirement to play for the sorry ass Ravens hahahahahahahahahahahaha. I miss hearing him talk in the CBS studio on Sundays on NFL Today with Dan Marino & Boomer Esiason. Shannon Sharpe doesn't have the same charisma & likable personality that Deion has. Deion needs to come back to NFL Today & get his job back. I hate it when athletes come outta retirement wasting their time when they're washed up. Deion had a good thing going with NFL Today. I heard he left the show because of contract issues. How much damn money does he want? I'm sure he was getting paid good.
Brian Damage 10-01-2005, 04:41 PM I thought I read somewhere that he and Boomer didn't get along and his leaving was a mutual situation.

Yeah, I do miss Deion in the studio. I use to always like to see what he was wearing each week. If you ask me, I think that was racist on CBS part for replacing Deion with another token black on the show.
isiahthomas 10-01-2005, 04:50 PM You got a point GarfieldKool about CBS replacing Deion with another token black guy.
isiahthomas 10-01-2005, 04:52 PM I like watching NFL Countdown on ESPN on Sunday mornings because of Michael Irvin. Michael is a likable guy. I like most of the comments he says. Tom Jackson isn't that bad either. Chris Berman & Steve Young are boring.
Brian Damage 10-01-2005, 04:53 PM I'll agree that Young is boring, but Chris Berman? I disagree.

Chris Berman is funny, but Steve Young don't do anything for me. Though Chris Berman can get repetitive.
bandito 10-02-2005, 02:02 PM Yeah, I do miss Deion in the studio. I use to always like to see what he was wearing each week. If you ask me, I think that was racist on CBS part for replacing Deion with another token black on the show.I have a great idea, CBS should replace the whole show with as you say token blacks, then you won't think CBS is racist anymore. Better yet maybe the NFL could have ALL token white players instead of the majority of the players being black then it won't be racist either.

What the hell are you talking about?! Don't try to throw this back at me, because it won't work. I gave my opinion, so let it rest.
bandito 10-02-2005, 05:00 PM And i gave my opinion.... so you do the same and you let it rest.
GARFIELDKOOL 10-02-2005, 06:51 PM And i gave my opinion.... so you do the same and you let it rest.
Then don't try to start an argument with me. I am going by I see. Just because you don't see what I see does not mean you have to challenge it. And Shannon Sharpe is a token black guy. They could have got any qualified person to replace Deion. I am not saying Shannon Sharpe isn't qualified, but it looked to me like any black person was a legitimate replacement for Deion.
bandito 10-02-2005, 08:19 PM I think Shannon Sharpe does a great job. He's well informed and tells it like it is at times. Btw, who would have been your pick to replace Deion? Just curious.. not trying to start a fight.

I don't know, to be honest with you. But Shannon Sharpe like you said does a great job.
TVFactFan 10-03-2005, 03:04 PM I'm just glad ESPN finally hired a black guy who is not LOUD, and GOOFY. That guy is College Football Analyst, Mark May. Very Intelligent well spoken black man who is nothing like Michael Irvin.
Oh Tom Jackson is ok. I forgot about him. I just didn;t like that David Aldrige was let go by ESPN
Seinatra 10-03-2005, 04:50 PM Didn't Mark May used to do Sunday night games back when half of them were on TNT or TBS? They used to split the season with ESPN. I thought Verne Lundquist was on there also.
Anyway, I think Sharpe is horrible. He is good at talking crap, but not as one of the 4 regular members, he should just have a special segment maybe. Neon left because he demanded more money and they wouldnt pay it, at least that is what I remember. I thought he wanted like twice what they were paying him.
He should go back to TV, we need Sanders Claus back to do some Ho-Ho-Hoing.
isiahthomas 10-04-2005, 06:15 PM I agree Seinatra. Shannon Sharpe is only good at talkin sh*t. Deion is greedy. How much damn money does he want to be a studio analyst? I'm sure CBS was paying him good. These athletes get on my damn nerves always asking for money than what they're getting. They're already making millions of dollars. You got people out here starving to death & can't get a job but you got these cry baby ass negroes demanding more money when they're already living good. I wanna smack Latrell Sprewell for that dumb ass comment he made about he can't feed his family with the salary he makes. Do you know how many poor people would love to have Latrell's salary?
