They look to create fake polarization, a very unrealistic version of debate. Thing is, we've seen it when it was a lot more organic. It started with Skip on Cold Pizza and the rotating cast...

Shannon changes governments often to reflect whoever is winning at the moment and JJ became a weird passive aggressive old guy plumber in young skin.

I think it’s unfair to compare Ryan and Pat in the first place. When ESPN hired Pat they hired a Show. They bought the rights to air it on their broadcast. Ryan went to ESPN as an employee… the Pivot has definitely turned into something special and it’s worth all his time and attention.
THATS BS and you know it. This is AMERIKKKA BRO, Black men who are uncle T0ms and stand on their Pivot WILL ALWAYS BE SEEN AS A THREAT. hence why we gotta get Whyte friends co hosts, and partners so that THE POWERS THAT BE ARENT ALARMED. ps even if ryan had his own show or whatever you dont think ESPN wouldnt play hardball with ryan to the point it doesnt come through... again dont forget what country you in.
These two are apples and oranges. Pat gets paid what he does because he and his show can generate tons of interest and money for ESPN, otherwise they'd never have thought of hiring him for a second. Ryan Clark is in an analyst's role and would never generate near that much, so he won't get paid near that much. But Clark is very good at what he does and deserves to make more than the average NFL analyst does.
He’s upset because Pat can bash another executive and get away with it and he feels like he can’t. Well that’s because Pat has a huge money making following and Pat knows that if he leaves his followers will follow so he can call out an executive and get away with it. That’s how the game works you have to have leverage and evidently Clark has none.

bro im sorry but this is ameriKKKA, it dont matter if he brought all of Africa Latin america and Asia, him just as being himself is already putting alot of YT folks with power over the edge. Pat is not a threat in their eyes cause Pat like most depend on this unjust system. Pat Donald trump Vince Dana white most rich or middle class even POOR Yts aint going against the system period. We just had a situation where Francis a former UFC champ wanted better pay for fighters and risked it all and actually came out on top...And did you know the majority of UFC fans who are YT tried to sabotage francis and wanted him to fail. Thats my point.
RC was a well established NFL player and had a career. Organizations don't CREATE people. People grow and expand themselves. It's like saying your job created you and makes you who you are. No, you earned it.
Ughhhh no , he built himself threw his playing career , ESPN recruited him as well ,, just be honest if he was on his show faded talking bout doing edibles and shrooms , standing on n his desk , he would be labeled , an looked at a whole different way , an if ya get down to knowing the game one was a kicker an the other was on D one was studying schemes , the other kicking placement , big difference, special team will win ya a game or two but the D will win ya championships, Both great , but let’s be honest ⚫️⚪️
You're not that smart are you? Never heard of someone using someone else's brand to increase their own marketability? lol It's like common sense is depleted amongst you people

And my apologies if it wasn’t RC who blasted Welker but I think I’m 99% sure tho.
I live in the DMV and there are several former Washington players that are on local tv and radio (namely Brian Mitchell, Santana Moss and Fred Smoot) who won't let the memory of #21 die.
I think they meant to say 12 am. Because he was on all the morning shows...nfl live at 3...espn at 6. Inside the nfl at 10 pm.... so its wayyyyy more than 5 hrs
Became a shock jock there at the end anyway. Just taking the most controversial stand possible on every single subject. Got the idea he was just jacking us there at the end
I cannot agree more with this statement. Finally someone who said it!! Once he called out mike T .. the gloves came off. He was just going INNN on everyone!
I'm a Ravens fan born & raised in Baltimore 10 minutes walking distance to both stadiums. R C is so good at his job, they will have trouble replacing him
Clark I'd a race baiter and he admitted to lying he thought purdy was a mvp candidate and flipped again. Pat is a different person compared to baiter RC trying to act like purdy now? Clown was a yes man n realized it didn't work so now he realized he should of been himself. He a fake scum
Nah just put another opinionated talking head and it will be just fine... they aren't reporters just a talking head... no real value, his opinion is no more valuable than yours...
I'm 5, Caucasian, a veteran and at best agnostic. I have never considered RC as a race baiter, I found him to be a man of faith who acts upon that belief. Do I agree with him on all things, no? IDK the truth of the situation, I doubt any of you do either. I wish him the best. Woke or not, ESPN has no effect on my life, I don't allow it. Stand for what you think is correct that's all you can do.
When he decided Doug Williams wasn’t “ Black Enough” to suit him as a Super Bowl winning QB., I knew he was working on his next check. Never really bought his stance on Lamar being “blacker” than other black QBs. Chasing a check and clicks
Mcafee can call people out because he doesn’t need ESPN like Clark does. If Clark had a following and built a monster progrum with a huge following then he could do what he wants as well but sadly he didn’t so he cant… Clark doesn’t call people out because he’s scared to lose his job, Pat isn’t and doesn’t need ESPN and they know it.
I am a 64 years old geezer that loves the NFL and the Chiefs. RC was a stud on the field and he is my favorite broadcaster on ESPN. The clarity of his opinion and his view is so much better than everyone else is not even funny. With today's streaming and platform options, he should get his own channel. Team up with Dan Orlovsky. They would make a great duo....
If you didnt get what Ryan was speaking on at the End. about. " I cant publicly bash one executive by name that i think is screwing me over, and a few weeks later take a pic with another to show solidarity" That is in reference to Pat MacAfee going OFF and i mean OFF on his show about the BS an ESPN Exec was putting him thru.
True, but ESPN rejected Pat years ago and now that he was competition he had leverage to set terms. RC built his analyst brand at ESPN and then added outside ventures. They probably used that against him as though he needs them more. 🤷🏻♂️ I just hope RC gets his 💰💰
@@jl2559 Im glad that we could add context to what he was stating. Again theres Fox, Barstool, going independent like he is. RC is going to land somewhere. His work ethic wont allow him not to.
PM will eventually show the clown he is. RC talked real stuff mostly and I always believed what he said minus some opinion stuff. I haven't watched espn in over 2 years other than Monday night football.
@@DC-eq4yh PM is HIM. lmao i dont understand why all you JOBBERS hate on Pat. He's done the SAME THING everywhere hes been and he has not changed for ANYONE. Youre talking about one of the wildest biggest wild cards in sports media who doesnt give a flying FAWK about anything but HIS SHOW. that HE GREW. Pat is big because he has ACCESS. same thing with Shannon. Shannon has ACCESS.
It's sad you said Ryan Clark falls for race bating and you failed to mention ESPN's decades of race baiting. So it's ok for them to do it and the analysts cannot set the records straight.
Ryan Clark was one if the very few reasons I ever watched ESPN at all. His combination of expertise and on screen personality is egual to or better than any other sports pundit. He'll land in a good place and I look forward to seeing him there.
I thought I was tripping when I did not see RC's takes on the Super Bowl. I do not have cable TV so I assumed I just missed him on the UA-cams. Thanks for posting this now I know where to look.
The truth is the perception of a character by the general public. Hes probably funny and a very likable person and great character off camera but He’s none of that on camera. Yes he’s smart and talented but people want to be entertained not just on numbers/stats of the game. The public either feel you or they don’t. I hope he figures things out cause it could be only be a slight change on his approach to his on camera personality. He takes his job so seriously that he looks mean more than half of the time. Ask yourself does that look like the person you want to see everyday?
I love how the guys who speak the real are somehow "race baiting" or bringing too much politics to sports. Meanwhile yall have nothing to say on Colby covington or folks like him. Racists and racist policies exists whether folks like you want to acknowledge it or not.
Biggest difference ESPN begged Pat to join after he built a following outside of the network Ryan built his following on ESPN Steven A felt the same way 10 years ago and came back when the grass wasn’t greener
@@Jordan-oq4rv And if Mcafee loses the espn deal - he still has his brand already established. It would essentially make him more popular. So when you have an established thing to fall back on, you can take your shots and no one will say anything because that is a bigger loss for espn, than it is for mcafee.
He can take shots at McAfee all he wants but the bottom line is that he’s not as popular as Pat. Frankly, I’ve never heard of him. And I watch ALL the football. You don’t set your own value…the market sets your value. If he had an agent instead of a friend handling business for him, the agent would have told him that. Now he’s unemployed.
Nice video however, I'm curious about your comment saying RC is race baiting at times. Can you state examples because I watched many of this takes and I don't recall hearing such. So help me understand.
That's funny because I stopped the video right there to read a few comments. White people hate when black people speak out on white bias and try to discredit it every time.
Thats the problem! Pale people hate when you mentiion, or bring up "race," but steadily practice RACISM, in the dealings behind closed doors. Then got the nerve to think, we are too stupid to notice it, and get highly offended, if you point it out.
He hasn’t. It’s just a whiny white dude saying it for more clicks. Hell he follows RC even on his podcast and gets his feelings hurt that someone black would have the nerve to talk black issues, just a snowflake.
Ryan Clark is the realest. I hope wherever he lands, that they will pay him and respect him for who and what he is because he's a diamond in the rough. Mad respect for him.
I enjoyed RC so much with SVP. the compassion, respect and integrity with the way the two great personalities projected the sports news was amazing. Wish you nothing but the best RC - and will be looking forward to seeing you somewhere soon.
And they deserve it. Sling lies. Only ever be on one side of things politically. Gaslight. Defend. Run cover. They deserve everything they are getting for walking to the beat of their masters instead of speaking to their audience: the American people.
Rc was a dawg on the field and a beast on the network. Love his work, drive and professionalism. ESPN lost a great analyst. Wish him nothing but the best on the pivot and future endeavors.
Yeah, They are low ballin everybody, meaning senior talent. Let's face it, WE want to SEE the PRODUCT (Games)...ALL of these OPINION SHOWS and Announcers are "icing." I HATED Brent Musburger, but I turned down the volume, turned on the music and ENJOYED the game. Hey, they got rid of Mark Jackson and The Coach, 2 of the Best Basketball announcers in the business, and replaced them with Doc Rivers (that guy is a disgusting announcer, sound TERRIBLE and says Nothing) and a bunch of second rater, same with Football...that Gorlovsky guy is a freaking joke😂. Who cares about Stephen A, he has been making 10-12 Million for years, that's STEALING with about half million viewers each day. Many UA-camrs do that with their eyes closed. Everytime Stephen A goes on the NBA pre game show, I immediately change the channel, he drains the life OUT of everything he is around. Anyway, the Market is LOADED with ex Athletes and Grads who want to come into TV... The Market is in control...why pay $5 million for an on air personally when the viewers are there for the product. Hey, these announcers and personalities won't go broke, I have no tears for them.
Ryan is one of the most consistently high quality analysts in the game right now. I really cannot believe ESPN considers him "expendable". It just shows they have no ability to recognize talent.
Yea , he's excellent at bringing identity politics into his baiting takes. He knows ball. He doesn't know how to separate a person from their skin color
I'm going to "separate" your comment from the rest and assume you're YT... Only you all respond to truth with a deflection... And only you hate hearing anything about race but live your whole lives judging people off racial stereotypes! You hate hearing talk about race but you're ate up mentally with racism 🙃... Its like a prideful person whos strung out on drugs (everybody can see it) who chooses lie and stay in denial about the clear problem... Yt America needs help!
Pat vs RC....Pat to me is a ratings chaser...he does his funny stuff and all that....but RC...his insight and experience and how he prepares...for me top notch at ESPN....i would love to see RC become a teams GM...damn gonna miss him and his insight...my viewership of espn will drop off probably completely...
Clark's takes were always completely predictable, and basically system-approved. Nothing uniquely insightful, always one-dimensional takes on racial dynamics, etc.
I recently started trading in July, invested 50k with h e r and my portfolio is currently worth slightly over 170k. That's alot more than I make in a vear from my job
That Josh Allen take got him canned. Espn dont want you speaking the truth, they’re paying you to gaslight every topic Take swaggu for example. That man gaslights every single take
Race baiting isn’t good tv. That’s all RC does. The proof ? The shot at Pat at the end. Not understanding Pat has his own show that the network airs, RC is just an employee 😂
Notice how it's usually a white dude talking about race baiting and the race card. It's a low-key way to avoid uncomfortable conversations and a cowards way to avoid dissent.
It’s not race batting but rather explaining to the world, how we see things through the lenses of a black man in America. It’s really uncomfortable for a lot of White Americans when a black man that holds such a high platform, can articulate his feelings whenever we see overt and covert racism in life but the uncomfortable space is necessary in order for us to properly address the racism that exists in this country. As long as RC is not being disrespectful or hateful as it relates to matters of race, then he should be listened too with open ears and minds versus leveling race baiting accusations in his direction, that is counterproductive my friend…Be blessed ✊🏽
Pat draws more attention. Attention equals money. ESPN understands 2 or 3 big hitters will make them more money than an army of good guys. Its business.
So, you think that he's race baiting because he's speaking his mind from his experience black athletes face daily. You wouldn't understand the truth that's why you would call it race baiting.
Why does he compare yourself to Pat. He’s just tryin to say white man bad and shame them. If you a strong Blk man. Take the L, lots of people put work in and fail. No need to bring another person in it.
I’m no fan of McAfee but you can’t say what Clark said in the entire clip then be a hypocrite and call out another guy for doing the same thing. Clark never had the draw that Patbhas had these past 5 years. Pat built his show and brand from the ground. Pat is a former player etc. Clark just sounds like a jealous baby at the end. Don’t even tell me it’s racial either because SAS runs his mouth all the time.
I don't like how you came at Ryan you always want to use the race card against black people it is a racist industry okay the good old boys some of these guys have no experience they've never played football in their life and they still get opportunities because the good old boys always kiss behind and have somebody that they know look at jet fish he's never played football. Ryan got an Emmy you don't have any he doesn't care if you like him or not we know as African-American men good old boys ain't going to like us as well as good old girls big deal He already has some deals in the works you don't know about them
Pat actually does something entertaining and different than anyone else on the network. RC is just another former player with predictable talking points and they already have loads of them there. It’s like comparing apples to oranges.
He’s just mad because Macaffey has the balls and the pull to call out another executive and he doesn’t, and it’s not a race thing because Stephen a could do the same thing. Clark is just disposable bottom line.
The end with the apparent dig at Pat ... smh ... not smart. Of course it's different for different people ... go build a show with your crew and get it to the point where a media giant comes knocking and you will be able to call out those above you who are pulling against you.
I liked Ryan but ESPN as a whole with the exception of sports center has gotten old and stale, seeing them debate the same ridiculous things over and over again and then hearing Greeny get wood talking about A Rodgers is enough for me to not care who is working on air
Contract negotiations for millions to play football must be so hard. How does this man get out of bed every day. LoL. Sometimes, pro level athletes complain about things that should not be issues.

bro im sorry but this is ameriKKKA, it dont matter if he brought all of Africa Latin america
and Asia, him just as being himself is already putting alot of YT folks with power over the edge.
Pat is not a threat in their eyes cause Pat like most depend on this unjust system. Pat Donald trump
Vince Dana white most rich or middle class even POOR Yts aint going against the system period.
We just had a situation where Francis a former UFC champ wanted better pay for fighters and risked it all
and actually came out on top...And did you know the majority of UFC fans who are YT tried to sabotage francis
and wanted him to fail. Thats my point.
RC was a well established NFL player and had a career. Organizations don't CREATE people. People grow and expand themselves. It's like saying your job created you and makes you who you are. No, you earned it.
Ughhhh no , he built himself threw his playing career , ESPN recruited him as well ,, just be honest if he was on his show faded talking bout doing edibles and shrooms , standing on n his desk , he would be labeled , an looked at a whole different way , an if ya get down to knowing the game one was a kicker an the other was on D one was studying schemes , the other kicking placement , big difference, special team will win ya a game or two but the D will win ya championships,
Both great , but let’s be honest ⚫️⚪️
You're not that smart are you? Never heard of someone using someone else's brand to increase their own marketability? lol It's like common sense is depleted amongst you people
@angelaw9476 you put any ex football player on ESPN as an analyst and they will become more prominent...That's a definite....RC built himself thru espn....If he had a podcast without being on ESPN, no one would know or care
Damn he was a hard hitter!
Same thing I said! He was bringing the pain!
Diehard Steeler fans like me have known this for years.
Wasn't he tho...dude was laying the smack down💥
@@chrisbarnhill5216He did Wes Welker hella dirty. Idk how Welker is still alive after that late hit he did on him. I understand it was almost a bang bang play but Welker didn’t have the ball & got his soul taken out of him by a hard ass hit from RC lmfao. And my apologies if it wasn’t RC who blasted Welker but I think I’m 99% sure tho.
Ryan you will be missed, they should have given you your bag.
The only one that still reps Sean Taylor every day. Salute!!!
He forever has my respect for that. Taylor would've been 🐐 FR

Ryan Clark was literally on TV from 7am-12pm
Right he better invest that mula 😂
what does literally have to do with anything? He worked for 5 hours with commercial breaks. Big deal.
I think they meant to say 12 am. Because he was on all the morning shows...nfl live at 3...espn at 6. Inside the nfl at 10 pm.... so its wayyyyy more than 5 hrs
I did
Became a shock jock there at the end anyway. Just taking the most controversial stand possible on every single subject. Got the idea he was just jacking us there at the end
I cannot agree more with this statement. Finally someone who said it!! Once he called out mike T .. the gloves came off. He was just going INNN on everyone!
Speaking out on important issues isn't "Race Baiting."
he didn't think he was expendable lmfao.
ESPN hasn't got my attention anyways
I'm a Ravens fan born & raised in Baltimore 10 minutes walking distance to both stadiums. R C is so good at his job, they will have trouble replacing him
🧢
Clark I'd a race baiter and he admitted to lying he thought purdy was a mvp candidate and flipped again. Pat is a different person compared to baiter RC trying to act like purdy now? Clown was a yes man n realized it didn't work so now he realized he should of been himself. He a fake scum

I feel that, but everyone including me an you are replaceable.
Much Love and Respect for your game play and your media professionalism. WOW!! do I miss you on Sundays. Here we go ….
I'm 5, Caucasian, a veteran and at best agnostic. I have never considered RC as a race baiter, I found him to be a man of faith who acts upon that belief. Do I agree with him on all things, no? IDK the truth of the situation, I doubt any of you do either. I wish him the best. Woke or not, ESPN has no effect on my life, I don't allow it. Stand for what you think is correct that's all you can do.
Any time you have a W2 you can be terminated ❤Ryan do for self.
When he decided Doug Williams wasn’t “ Black Enough” to suit him as a Super Bowl winning QB., I knew he was working on his next check. Never really bought his stance on Lamar being “blacker” than other black QBs. Chasing a check and clicks
Never heard of this. You got a link
The doesn't even sound like something he would say 🙄
What?
Called Lamar Jackson the first REAL BLACK QB. Throwing shade at Russell Wilson, Doug Williams etc.
@@EricBrowning-t2o Honestly, I really don't know what Russell Wilson is.😂
I can’t wait for the day ESPN goes out of business.
Time for a new media to rise

@@himlekmcnutt2764Same!
Mcafee slowly ruining espn. And he'll bail before his contract is up, as usual.
Mcafee can call people out because he doesn’t need ESPN like Clark does. If Clark had a following and built a monster progrum with a huge following then he could do what he wants as well but sadly he didn’t so he cant…
Clark doesn’t call people out because he’s scared to lose his job, Pat isn’t and doesn’t need ESPN and they know it.
I am a 64 years old geezer that loves the NFL and the Chiefs. RC was a stud on the field and he is my favorite broadcaster on ESPN. The clarity of his opinion and his view is so much better than everyone else is not even funny. With today's streaming and platform options, he should get his own channel. Team up with Dan Orlovsky. They would make a great duo....
If you didnt get what Ryan was speaking on at the End. about. " I cant publicly bash one executive by name that i think is screwing me over, and a few weeks later take a pic with another to show solidarity"
That is in reference to Pat MacAfee going OFF and i mean OFF on his show about the BS an ESPN Exec was putting him thru.
McAfee is such a hypocrite fake
True, but ESPN rejected Pat years ago and now that he was competition he had leverage to set terms. RC built his analyst brand at ESPN and then added outside ventures. They probably used that against him as though he needs them more. 🤷🏻♂️ I just hope RC gets his 💰💰
@@jl2559 Im glad that we could add context to what he was stating. Again theres Fox, Barstool, going independent like he is. RC is going to land somewhere. His work ethic wont allow him not to.
PM will eventually show the clown he is. RC talked real stuff mostly and I always believed what he said minus some opinion stuff. I haven't watched espn in over 2 years other than Monday night football.
@@DC-eq4yh PM is HIM. lmao i dont understand why all you JOBBERS hate on Pat. He's done the SAME THING everywhere hes been and he has not changed for ANYONE. Youre talking about one of the wildest biggest wild cards in sports media who doesnt give a flying FAWK about anything but HIS SHOW. that HE GREW. Pat is big because he has ACCESS. same thing with Shannon. Shannon has ACCESS.
You’re great Ryan Clark!
Keep ur eyes on God! God is the ultimate prize.
Keep trusting God. Give God the love for all ur successes!
Smh
@@j80282if u dont believe in God then ur without a doubt an absolute jackass
💯 correct, Jesus is EVERYTHING that matters in this cursed and sinful world.
That’s a whole bunch of word salad. ESPN needs PM more than they need RC. RC just another analyst. I don’t think he understands he has no leverage.
Bro was the only one with a brain on espn and the only one calling out other people's bullshit.
It's sad you said Ryan Clark falls for race bating and you failed to mention ESPN's decades of race baiting. So it's ok for them to do it and the analysts cannot set the records straight.
He doesn’t set anything straight, he talks about his feelings and the only people who think that race baiting is good tv are racists.
Ryan ,I respect your decision. Respectfully yours from Canada!!!
Damn! Going to miss RC.. Thank you brother!!!
Ryan Clark was one if the very few reasons I ever watched ESPN at all. His combination of expertise and on screen personality is egual to or better than any other sports pundit.
He'll land in a good place and I look forward to seeing him there.
He should fined for overvalued himself. New York should have a trial....
I thought I was tripping when I did not see RC's takes on the Super Bowl. I do not have cable TV so I assumed I just missed him on the UA-cams. Thanks for posting this now I know where to look.
My god! Watching those Ryan Clark highlights reminds of how the NFL used to be before they wussied it up!
HE'S A GREAT MAN FACTS LOVE 25 PITTSBURGH STEELERS
STEELERS NATION KNOWS!!!! 🖤💛🖤💛
The truth is the perception of a character by the general public. Hes probably funny and a very likable person and great character off camera but He’s none of that on camera. Yes he’s smart and talented but people want to be entertained not just on numbers/stats of the game. The public either feel you or they don’t. I hope he figures things out cause it could be only be a slight change on his approach to his on camera personality. He takes his job so seriously that he looks mean more than half of the time. Ask yourself does that look like the person you want to see everyday?
I love how the guys who speak the real are somehow "race baiting" or bringing too much politics to sports. Meanwhile yall have nothing to say on Colby covington or folks like him. Racists and racist policies exists whether folks like you want to acknowledge it or not.
Facts, they will be rudely awakened. Their little switch and bait, spin games fools no one.
It’s business, it’s not personal, everyone is replaceable, it might take 2 people to replace you but life goes on.
Biggest difference
ESPN begged Pat to join after he built a following outside of the network
Ryan built his following on ESPN
Steven A felt the same way 10 years ago and came back when the grass wasn’t greener
Shots fired at Pat Mac at the end lol
He jelly he doesn't have the clout to call his bosses out
I don't think he's jelly it's just crazy how the same rules don't apply
@@rashonhenderson2048 because pat has his whole show he built and owns the rights to
@@Jordan-oq4rv And if Mcafee loses the espn deal - he still has his brand already established. It would essentially make him more popular. So when you have an established thing to fall back on, you can take your shots and no one will say anything because that is a bigger loss for espn, than it is for mcafee.
Be who you can afford to be
It is what it is
Pat owns all his shit
He don’t
What a loss for ESPN. RC really knows his X’s and O’s, and always articulates it effectively for the audience.
Let’s stop acting like the dude is a brain surgeon. There’s a million people that talk well and can read you stats 😂
He can take shots at McAfee all he wants but the bottom line is that he’s not as popular as Pat. Frankly, I’ve never heard of him. And I watch ALL the football. You don’t set your own value…the market sets your value. If he had an agent instead of a friend handling business for him, the agent would have told him that. Now he’s unemployed.
Nice video however, I'm curious about your comment saying RC is race baiting at times. Can you state examples because I watched many of this takes and I don't recall hearing such. So help me understand.
ua-cam.com/video/9ydfUWB7AYk/v-deo.htmlsi=EgmT410hsx4tVrXg
Exactly
That's funny because I stopped the video right there to read a few comments. White people hate when black people speak out on white bias and try to discredit it every time.
Thats the problem! Pale people hate when you mentiion, or bring up "race," but steadily practice RACISM, in the dealings behind closed doors. Then got the nerve to think, we are too stupid to notice it, and get highly offended, if you point it out.
He hasn’t. It’s just a whiny white dude saying it for more clicks. Hell he follows RC even on his podcast and gets his feelings hurt that someone black would have the nerve to talk black issues, just a snowflake.
Ryan Clark is the realest. I hope wherever he lands, that they will pay him and respect him for who and what he is because he's a diamond in the rough. Mad respect for him.
Hmmmm...race baiting? Tis is one of the reasons ESPN numbers r falling!
He wanted more money and didn't get it this happens all the time
I enjoyed RC so much with SVP. the compassion, respect and integrity with the way the two great personalities projected the sports news was amazing. Wish you nothing but the best RC - and will be looking forward to seeing you somewhere soon.
Really enjoy Ryan’s as a broad caster he does a really good job and knows the game
Media as a whole is getting slaughtered at the moment a lot of these guys are collateral damage.
And they deserve it. Sling lies. Only ever be on one side of things politically. Gaslight. Defend. Run cover. They deserve everything they are getting for walking to the beat of their masters instead of speaking to their audience: the American people.
Rc was a dawg on the field and a beast on the network. Love his work, drive and professionalism. ESPN lost a great analyst. Wish him nothing but the best on the pivot and future endeavors.
He didn't have to bring pat in this. That's his business. You handle your business.
It’s easier to drag someone down with you and make excuses.
Yeah, They are low ballin everybody, meaning senior talent. Let's face it, WE want to SEE the PRODUCT (Games)...ALL of these OPINION SHOWS and Announcers are "icing." I HATED Brent Musburger, but I turned down the volume, turned on the music and ENJOYED the game. Hey, they got rid of Mark Jackson and The Coach, 2 of the Best Basketball announcers in the business, and replaced them with Doc Rivers (that guy is a disgusting announcer, sound TERRIBLE and says Nothing) and a bunch of second rater, same with Football...that Gorlovsky guy is a freaking joke😂. Who cares about Stephen A, he has been making 10-12 Million for years, that's STEALING with about half million viewers each day. Many UA-camrs do that with their eyes closed. Everytime Stephen A goes on the NBA pre game show, I immediately change the channel, he drains the life OUT of everything he is around. Anyway, the Market is LOADED with ex Athletes and Grads who want to come into TV... The Market is in control...why pay $5 million for an on air personally when the viewers are there for the product. Hey, these announcers and personalities won't go broke, I have no tears for them.
Ryan's highlight reel is fantastic😳. RC was the best sports analyst to leave Espn.
Also Jalen Rose!
😂
Im gonna miss Ryan Clark. Great analyst.
Ryan is one of the most consistently high quality analysts in the game right now. I really cannot believe ESPN considers him "expendable". It just shows they have no ability to recognize talent.
Yea , he's excellent at bringing identity politics into his baiting takes. He knows ball. He doesn't know how to separate a person from their skin color
I'm going to "separate" your comment from the rest and assume you're YT... Only you all respond to truth with a deflection... And only you hate hearing anything about race but live your whole lives judging people off racial stereotypes! You hate hearing talk about race but you're ate up mentally with racism 🙃... Its like a prideful person whos strung out on drugs (everybody can see it) who chooses lie and stay in denial about the clear problem... Yt America needs help!
It’s talking sports not brain surgery 😂
Pat vs RC....Pat to me is a ratings chaser...he does his funny stuff and all that....but RC...his insight and experience and how he prepares...for me top notch at ESPN....i would love to see RC become a teams GM...damn gonna miss him and his insight...my viewership of espn will drop off probably completely...
Clark's takes were always completely predictable, and basically system-approved. Nothing uniquely insightful, always one-dimensional takes on racial dynamics, etc.
His barber CRAZY
Fade clean as hell
*I'm favoured 80K PROFIT every 2 weeks! I now have a good house and paid off all my debt. I am truly thankful beyond words, Stacey*

I have heard a lot of wonderful things about Stacey Neal Brooks on the news but didn't believe it until now. I'm definitely trying her out
Ryan is one of the best analysts, he really stick to the facts about teams and the games not personal like most other analysts
I agree.
He race baits. Thats definitely taking things personal 😂
So at the end espn offered him less money than what he thought he was worth… He ain’t the first and he won’t be the last.
Only one RC! YOURE A FUGGIN LEGEND BRO. Much respect! Head up Pittsburgh will always love you. WARRIOR!!!!! True man LEGEND!
That Josh Allen take got him canned.
Espn dont want you speaking the truth, they’re paying you to gaslight every topic
Take swaggu for example. That man gaslights every single take
Race baiting isn’t good tv. That’s all RC does. The proof ? The shot at Pat at the end. Not understanding Pat has his own show that the network airs, RC is just an employee 😂
Ryan Clark is absolutely great at what he does. Excellent player too. Knows the Sport.
He sucks bro....Honestly, he's biased as fuck and will say diff things about 2 players in same position
Race baiting isn't a thing.
It’s the new age white man deflecting
Yes it is!
Neither is white privilege then.
Very forgettable. No big deal. And, dont forget hes a WOKESTER. Enough said.
Notice how it's usually a white dude talking about race baiting and the race card. It's a low-key way to avoid uncomfortable conversations and a cowards way to avoid dissent.
He be to black. Real talk
@@kenwood1652 what do you mean?
Hire a good team and share your contact in as many places you can
RC: "Damn you mean all my woke bs and constant crying on air about alleged racial injustice didnt make people want to watch me??"
It’s not race batting but rather explaining to the world, how we see things through the lenses of a black man in America. It’s really uncomfortable for a lot of White Americans when a black man that holds such a high platform, can articulate his feelings whenever we see overt and covert racism in life but the uncomfortable space is necessary in order for us to properly address the racism that exists in this country.
As long as RC is not being disrespectful or hateful as it relates to matters of race, then he should be listened too with open ears and minds versus leveling race baiting accusations in his direction, that is counterproductive my friend…Be blessed ✊🏽
😂
@@ThomasjeffersonIII What the fuck is so funny?
Pat draws more attention. Attention equals money. ESPN understands 2 or 3 big hitters will make them more money than an army of good guys. Its business.
Ryan Clark doesn’t race bait he simply says what needs to be said. HORRIBLE TAKE.
What do you do if you are the analyst replacing RC, knowing full-well that once your contract is up that you'll be in the same place Clark is in now?
So, you think that he's race baiting because he's speaking his mind from his experience black athletes face daily. You wouldn't understand the truth that's why you would call it race baiting.
Why does he compare yourself to Pat. He’s just tryin to say white man bad and shame them. If you a strong Blk man. Take the L, lots of people put work in and fail. No need to bring another person in it.
I’m no fan of McAfee but you can’t say what Clark said in the entire clip then be a hypocrite and call out another guy for doing the same thing. Clark never had the draw that Patbhas had these past 5 years. Pat built his show and brand from the ground. Pat is a former player etc. Clark just sounds like a jealous baby at the end. Don’t even tell me it’s racial either because SAS runs his mouth all the time.
I don't like how you came at Ryan you always want to use the race card against black people it is a racist industry okay the good old boys some of these guys have no experience they've never played football in their life and they still get opportunities because the good old boys always kiss behind and have somebody that they know look at jet fish he's never played football. Ryan got an Emmy you don't have any he doesn't care if you like him or not we know as African-American men good old boys ain't going to like us as well as good old girls big deal
He already has some deals in the works you don't know about them
Pat actually does something entertaining and different than anyone else on the network. RC is just another former player with predictable talking points and they already have loads of them there. It’s like comparing apples to oranges.
I'm still waiting for Molly to depart ESPN 😂
All other females at ESPN are on more than one ESPN show. Molly is paid $500K per year for ONE Show First Take ..she aint going anywhere
He’s just mad because Macaffey has the balls and the pull to call out another executive and he doesn’t, and it’s not a race thing because Stephen a could do the same thing. Clark is just disposable bottom line.
The end with the apparent dig at Pat ... smh ... not smart. Of course it's different for different people ... go build a show with your crew and get it to the point where a media giant comes knocking and you will be able to call out those above you who are pulling against you.
RC should start a UA-cam show something like Pat McAfee and see where it goes...
ESPN needs to stop paying a select few crazy money and then letting quality content contributors walk. RC is the man
I liked Ryan but ESPN as a whole with the exception of sports center has gotten old and stale, seeing them debate the same ridiculous things over and over again and then hearing Greeny get wood talking about A Rodgers is enough for me to not care who is working on air
Seriously, tell me the last video that got widespread attention of Ryan having a great take and wasn't about race. Ill wait....
Wow Ryan was the best NFL analyst on ESPN. He will thrive on his own!
Contract negotiations for millions to play football must be so hard. How does this man get out of bed every day. LoL.
Sometimes, pro level athletes complain about things that should not be issues.
