lmfao...you're kidding around, right? do you realize how much money a news source could make by confirming that rumor? You have no clue what you're talking about, man. You link to one story at deadspin that's filled with a bunch of nonsense. That story, if true, would be so huge, almost as big as the Tiger Woods thing. You really think, if it was true, that only Colin Cowherd and deadspin would attempt to report it?
Bill Simmons had Dave Hench on his podcast a couple weeks ago and was told he wasn't allowed to talk about something while on air. Two days later Hench confirmed on his own podcast not affiliated with ESPN, that that thing was the Gloria James affair and that ESPN had confirmed the affair occurred. Don't believe me if you want but those are 2 of ESPNs biggest assets confirming it.
