Finebaum Reportedly Considering Run for Senate

[Flogballs]

Isn’t Paul a democrat?

ESPN probably thought so too

 

[n_huffhines]

Probably hiding his political affiliation from his employer to keep his job

LOL, what?

 

[volfanhill]

If the US Senate has Tommy Tubberville, Paul Finbaum, and Derek Dooley in it then we deserve what happens

Tuberville is running for Governor

Tuberville is running for Governor

And if he loses? Can you imagine having him as your governor? I'm republican and he's a moron

 

[Zues1]

Good. Now maybe the SEC network can actually hire someone who's not as boring as watching paint dry.

and people will wonder how things got so bad, and will somehow blame the other side for their own bad choices.

all I’m saying is Tuberville and Finebaum won’t both be in the Senate

 

[EasternVol]

Are all of these people who got rich from scamming 18-21 year old boys so desperate to get into legislation?

Did Finebaum get rich that way? If so, what's the scam?

 

[EasternVol]

It would be hard to consider Paul more of an alabama homer than I already did, but that at least makes it official.

That's where he built his market. It makes sense that if he runs he runs there.

Tuberville's a moron and Dooley loves to hear the sound of his own voice saying stupid sheet. I'd say Finebaum would make a much better Senator than the other two.

Not splitting tv revenue among the players. It’s still going on today.

Were they allowed to play ball and go to school?

 

[adam.vol]

Were they allowed to play ball and go to school?

Yes. The slaves’ basic needs have been met.

Indentured servitude became illegal in 1865.

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

serious void for SECN but not big shoes to fill but who fills void?

It's sports. How hard can it be?


Sorry, but what he does isn't rocket surgery. I just hope they don't get another Pat McAfee

 

[C-south]

Yes. The slaves’ basic needs have been met.

Nobody forced them to play ball or go to any particular school. They could’ve chosen to do anything they wanted. Even if they chose a school and chose to play ball they are FREE to walk away at any point.

From his call in show? That's a stretch.

They are welcome to use coaches and players who elect to play for free, but they have chosen against such. Players can decline any compensation, but it’s not legal to deny them any compensation. There lies the scam.

I dont like PF, but how is his political ambitions any different than Stephen Smith? Dont see SAS banned.

Agreed, and this one is already a US Senator ...

I generally don't get the hate for the man. I watched his interview with Clay Travis and he seems like a really nice guy. I would love to hear more of his SEC stories from over the years.

His story of almost being able to interview Trump in his 1st term and someone at the top of ESPN stopping it says everything you need to know about the network.
