And how is that comparison invalid?

Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928 by a 22-year old Muslim named Hassan al-Banna, who admired Adolf Hitler's hatred of the Jews and persistently wrote to Hitler to express his admiration for Hitler, as well as his desire for collaboration with Hitler's Nazi Party.

When Hitler rose to power, his Nazis supported al-Banna, a school teacher, to grow the Muslim Brotherhood into its ally in the Middle East; by 1938, the membership of Muslim Brotherhood topped 200,000.

During World War II, members of the Muslim Brotherhood spied for Hitler's Nazis in the Middle East and fought for Hitler as Nazi troops in two specially formed Muslim Waffen-SS Handschar Divisions ('Handschar' is German for scimitar, the curved saber used by the Muslim troops of the Ottoman empire).

With ESPN/Disney being in a cost cutting mode they may not have him back.

His cry baby lame excuse that he didn't make the HOF because of his political views was bogus. Most athletes are conservative.

Agree with you steve, and not to change the subject here, but what bothers me about the voters to the HOF is that often, they seem to bring their personal bias into the voting.  How they were treated by the athlete etc.   I guess you can't scrub the vote of personal bias, but some of the reporters who are allowed to vote really do carry a grudge.

Just don't get how he didn't think that might offend some people. Is it fair as a reporter you're not allowed to have an opinion on something when you're not working? Probably not, but you have to think things through as far as how it's going to effect your viewership.
In the old saying don't discuss religion or politics if you don't want to upset anybody this guy did both in a couple of sentences.
