Cancel Culture...Latest Casualty

Mike Milbury got his head chopped off by NBC Sports, and afternoon 14 years, will no longer cover NHL games for the network due to his horrible (horrible and insensitive) comment regarding the NHL bubble.

"If you think about it, it's a terrific environment with regard to -- if you enjoy playing and enjoy being with your teammates for long periods of time, it's a perfect place," Boucher said.

"Not even any woman here to disrupt your concentration," Milbury responded.

14 Years...aaaaaaannnnd GONE!

If we are lucky, a change is coming soon.

Welcome to the USA!

Thats funny! Like when the golfer called his ball a F**.

I am all for not using hateful words and all... but come on. Jokes are still ok.

He's probably got a pretty valid point though.

Jokes are not acceptable if they offend the "woke" crowd

It’s gotten full on stupid

Wow

Get use to it they run the country now. Only going to get worse.

Much, much worse. This is only the very beginning.

Somehow Jimmy Fallon survives despite his past.

I would also add Jimmy Kimmel !

Anyone remember Jimmie Kimmel in The Man Show”? I thought it was funny, but a long way from politically correct.

My mistake, I meant Jimmy Kimmel.......

Yeesh, 99% of all males have made that joke or similar. Probably 99% of women also.
Oh, he said it on a Disney/ESPN associated network. Makes sense. They probably went back and tallied up all his jokes and comments over the years.

No kidding! My wife and her GF were cracking about how nice it is to not have "the men" around when we go on camping trips etc.

Its just in fun... I think

How?

For the worse!

How? He is going to storm the white house... duh. Like a real patriot. Duh.

whatever

Tip of the iceberg

Stay true too what you believe in.

speech is only free if you say what they want to hear.

Most here should remember quite a while ago there was a huge boycott of gas for a day when prices got to crazy. I'm sure if there could be an organized boycott of all tech for a couple days it would change some minds. I know business need tech and all that but if a huge majority just quit using social media and didn't watch TV for 2 days it would make an impact. Even longer would be all the better

This country has gone off the deep end.

I’d encourage you all to look for and encourage the good in the world.
Complaining about the world’s faults and troubles is easy, but it’s counter productive.

Seek the positive, have a confident, optimistic outlook and good things will happen in your life and for others.

I wake up every day and try and say at least 20 offensive things.

It is good he got fired.

Ok, I don’t have to talk to people because I hate them

A fine stretch goal. I aspire to commit at least three microaggressions each day. The Nextdoor app is an excellent vehicle for this, but you have to be somewhat subtle or risk getting banished.

Fits the agenda he's good.

May I suggest a prayer of peace and prosperity before brushing your teeth.
If you must say at least 20 offensive things, try whittling that down to 19, then 18 the following day, eventually getting to zero negative outbursts. You and your loved ones will then have more joy in their hearts.

That right there is funny as he**...maybe the funniest thing I’ve read on this forum.

Sometimes the best offense is a really good offense...I say good for you man!!! Don’t take any s*** off anybody!!!

Anger and rage lead to pain and suffering.
There is greater power in love and hope.

Doc, we don't all have the happy pharmaceutical access you do.

Haha!
All I take is zinc, vitamin D, quercetin, and vitamin C.

Jedi scripture?

Namaste.

Foundation of most spirituality.

Why do I catch more fish when I'm mad at them?

Several commentators wondered on air how the NBA bubble would work for the exact same reason. I don’t remember any of them getting suspended or fired. I could be wrong.

It’s no secret young, wealthy athletes spend a lot of time chasing women. In fact, the NBA bubble had some issues with women being snuck in, or players breaking the rules and going off campus. One player had to quarantine because he went to a strip club when he was supposed to be in the bubble.

Can't Argue with that!

Just wait, it's barely begun.

It’s UNBELIEVABLE how it’s changed in education. A kid can look you in the face and mother F you and nothing is done about it. Then if you tell a kid to pull his pants up because you don’t want to see his underwear, you’re written up by the principal. Yeah that happened. I know people give teachers hell on here but you’d be wide eyed if you see the chit they HAVE to put up with daily.

I am all for teachers being able to put their boot where the kids poot!

that is my favorite bible verse, and I believe it completely......but John 14 maybe should be on your mind, because we could be about to find out
