What an absolute embarrassment. Have you ever wondered what the theory of diversity actually looks like in reality? If you’ve ever questioned the consequences of prioritizing diversity over talent, Uncle KC is here to show you the proof.

Normally, I don’t amplify honest mistakes made by others in the media. We’ve all had our moments—misidentifying someone, getting a name wrong, or even misgendering someone. I’m guilty of it myself. I once referred to “they” as “them” and mistook a bearded beauty in the WNBA for a man. I’ve seen plenty of bald heads on MSNBC and naturally assumed they belonged to men. When it comes to names, especially those of anonymous faces, I’m terrible. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been corrected when talking about Bob Grier. Remember Travis Noah, the guy who nearly destroyed the Daily Show? Every time I mentioned him, someone would correct me, insisting I meant Trevor Noah. No, I meant Travis!

The point is, I try not to overreact to the misidentification of these so-called stars because most of them are unknown. Who cares if someone confuses Breanna Stewart with Rod Stewart? Bree should take that as a compliment because Rod Stewart has actual talent.

However, if you’re working in mainstream sports media, there are certain legendary names that should come naturally to you. For instance, if someone showed me a picture of Brett Favre, there’s no way I’d call him Bart. If someone walks into my studio wearing a red jersey with the number 23, I’m not thinking they’re a fan of DeAndre Jordan. When you grow up watching sports, certain names stick with you. The legendary Barry Sanders is one of them.

Unfortunately for Mo McDougall at ESPN, she proved once again that she’s not qualified for her position. On Friday morning, she was back on First Take after being kicked off the show last summer for chastising Stephen A. Smith. They were interviewing a comedian named Duski, who was wearing a Barry Sanders jersey. It was clear to anyone watching, whether you’re 15 or 45, that Duski was wearing a Barry Sanders jersey. But Mo McDougall thought it was a Detroit Lions jersey belonging to Shadore Sanders.

Seriously, is Mo McDougall colorblind? There didn’t seem to be any lighting issues in the studio. She was sitting about six feet away from Duski, complying with social distancing guidelines, and there was nothing blocking her view. How could she mistake a blue jersey for a Shadore Sanders jersey? For starters, there’s not a quarterback in the league that wears number 20. Numbers in the 20s are typically reserved for running backs. The more obvious clue should have been the color of the jersey. Unless Shadore was traded in the last hour, he plays for the Cleveland Browns, not the Detroit Lions.

This isn’t the first embarrassing moment for Mo McDougall at ESPN. Last summer, she chastised Stephen A. Smith for not covering the WNBA in the past, and that segment went viral. She was temporarily in the mainstream, appearing on late-night talk shows and being praised for “fighting the patriarchy.” To his credit, Stephen A. Smith appeared to kick her off First Take, but for some reason, he brought her back.

Mo has constantly used mythical racism when discussing Caitlin Clark, claiming that little girls admire her because she’s white. She’s one of many at ESPN who ties everything into race, just like Ryan Clark and L. Duncan. This network is a disaster and a diversity nightmare, proving why diversity doesn’t work. To make matters worse, ESPN has let go of talented people like Zach Lowe, Colin Cowherd, Bill Simmons, and Sage Steele, replacing them with pretend analysts like Mina Kimes and Mo McDougall.

How can Mo McDougall analyze the NBA when she wasn’t even talented enough to make the WNBA? There’s an old saying: in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. In the case of ESPN, that one-eyed man is Stephen A. Smith. I respect his talent, but that doesn’t mean he can put together a talented team.

When First Take was at its best, it featured Stephen A. debating Skip Bayless or Max Kellerman. It was always Stephen A. with someone who actually knew what they were talking about. Today, First Take has become a rotation of panelists, some of whom are okay, but most are just not up to par. What is David Dennis Jr. doing on First Take? The last show he was on got canceled. Why is Mo McDougall on this show? What can L. Duncan tell me about the NFL?

It’s just not the same show, and that’s why I no longer watch it. Sound off in the comments below. I’ll see you guys tomorrow.
