    Jerry West doesn't share your enthusiasm for the show.

    Season two starts Sunday.

    Al Michaels worked with Chick early in his career. He's indicated in interviews that Chick wasn't the easiest person to work with.

    Mr. Clutch has reportedly considered legal action over his portrayal in the series.

    has to be a little bit of truth to it or he wouldn't be so mad
    i remember seeing West lurking high above the floor at games and wondering what that was all about
    the guy has to be a little off center and i assume this is a typical hollywood exaggeration of the quirky personality
    as far as Chick goes he's undoubtedly one of the greatest to ever sit behind the mike
    remember having a 9v transistor glued to the side of my head when games were on "he sets, he shoots, he scores!"
    but you could also hear a palpable pretension as the years went on that reminded me of a social studies teacher who hated his job idk

    Is it unpatriotic not to give two fucks about the woman's soccer team going tits up?

    and right on cue...

    Collin Rugg✓@CollinRugg
    JUST IN: President Joe Biden says he is “proud” of the women’s USA soccer team who suffered a humiliating loss to Sweden.

    What exactly is Joe Biden proud of?

    • The worst USA women’s World Cup finish ever?
    • A women’s team that doesn’t respect their country?
    • Having a team led by someone who bullies players who refuse to kneel for the National Anthem?​

    Clown world

    Just to clarify, I wouldn't give two fucks about the men's soccer team, either.

    Say whatever you will about FOX, God knows they are far from perfect. But they were the only network to carry the statements from Escondido, CA. I thought I would just gloss over it, but wound up engulfed in sadness and outrage. A tragedy that could have been avoided.
    I listened to many heart wrenching testaments to the servicemen and women that died when we pulled out of Afghanistan. After I wiped the tears away, I realized from what was said the parents, wives, brothers and sisters it was a complete and utter fiasco with zero accountability. Nothing from Biden, the generals, command officers, etc. to this day.
    Scathing indictments. Profound confusion on the government's behavior. Cries of "we all deserve the truth".
    To a person, everyone said they basically were categorized as "too bad, so sad" ( my words). That's what I came away with.
    All I can say is, if any of these parents and loved ones were Democrats before, they sure aren't now.

    Don't quite get the FOX/ pillowdouche vitriol as a reaction to my particular post...it doesn't matter to me how much anyone hates them,
    But the statements made by the Gold Star families who lost their sons and daughters and bretheren in the Afghanistan
    pullout and how they were treated. And WH attitude about it.
    I thought it was obvious, but I missed the mark apparently.
    Not even a mention from the other media. Like Hunter.

    no i just hadn't heard the press conference and didn't get the Escondido reference
    truly a massive scar and perfect example of the disdain and grotesque attitude coming from the left
    as far as the Fox/pillowdick i just stopped tuning in after the Tucker bs and realization they are lying and covering up like every other msm outlet
    i try to never miss an opportunity to slam lindell and his high repetition snake oil commercials that i see a lot less since tuning out!
    so that's how he made it in there
    probably trying to be too clever and didn't get the full seriousness of your comment
    doh biden is a disgusting piece of shit for how he handled that entire situation and i hope he burns in the fires of hell should there be one
    or at least gets sat in front of a tv screen w an endless loop of the pillowslut shouting and waving his arms about like a chicken on acid

    Yeah...agree. It's nauseating watching the drone of Lindell commercials, as it is watching the commercials between innings, usually about cancer treatments somewhere.
    I just like to get the news sometimes, but basically abhor main stream media, like David Muir, which is what I am kind of forced to watch every night, since my gf is a closet liberal. So I do go to Fox if something is happening where I want the least amount of spin on it, or know I won't be able to see anything on it at all anywhere else.
    On Gutfield, they showed a chart of ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, and CNN who together, collectively, gave a total of 3 1/2 minutes to the Hunter/ Joe lying scams.
    This gold star family thing just pulled me in, and it's fucking disgusting the way they were treated, and the disrespect shown the murdered service persons was one of the most unbelievable things I ever heard. Shameful.
    Did you know they had the suicide bomber fingered as he was moving toward the group he murdered, and were told NOT to take him out ?
    Then Biden got up there and told us what a success it was.
    A real pig motherfucker.

    remember him looking at his watch?
    and media ran cover for him w the exception of people like Carlson and Gutfeld
    if you don't do X i highly suggest it
    a lot of nonsense posted but a lot of truth you don't get anywhere else
    Tuckers channel alone is a work in progress but just great interviews so far
    when i see fake stuff posted by either side i just block the content
    also nice to see how delusional the tweets of pillory, doh and gruesome are and read the comments
    not a place to get much in the way of responses to your opinion or make friends but its sort of the last place to find authentic information diluted by news outlets fwiw
