Yo, what's going on, folks?
Tonight, CBS Sports Radio, the JR sports brief show.
Many will remember this man.
Hey, what's going on? YouTube.
You are watching JR Sports Brief?
The JR Sport Brief has been around since 2009.
He has uploaded over 2000 videos in that time, discussing almost everything
from the Yankees and Derek Jeter to Floyd Mayweather.
Yo, what's going on, folks?
I just got off their CBS sports Radio show and to.
His credit, he has inked deals with his latest partnership being with CBS sports,
which to be clear, he absolutely earned.
However, no one is immune from criticism, no matter how much
we may adore them on air.
He would say this.
This is J.R. From the J.R.
Sport Brief with the CBS Sports Minute, sponsored by LL flooring.
LL flooring.
Every step covered March madness is upon us.
Selection Sunday is only a few days away, and we even have teams that have won
their conference tournaments and have automatic bids.
But if I'm being honest, I'm more excited for the women's tournament.
I'm ready for Angel Reese, Caitlin Clark and the giant Brazilian woman from South
Carolina that knocks people over. Forget the guys.
Where are the women? I'm ready on day off.
It was a porous moment.
South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley even heard it this morning
and tweeted her disgust.
What a morning.
I never thought I'd hear one of my players described in such an offensive way.
I'm not sitting this one out. Camila Cardoso deserves an apology.
CBS sports 1075 The Game and then she would say, can be issued
even though it's out of your control.
The Post and Courier's David Cloninger and Jeff Hartzell put in their write up.
A spokesman for 107.5 The game said the station is contractually obligated
to run the JRE Sport Brief.
CBS Sports Minute the bits run once per hour throughout the day, and all
CBS affiliates are required to run them.
Someone from 107.5 the game would respond to Staley and say, this coach,
you've every right to be upset.
We as a CBS affiliate do not control what plays in their sports minutes, and we
certainly don't condone what was said.
We try and treat all women's sports with the utmost respect.
It's unfortunate some national voices don't.
Even though it was not one of our voices that said this.
We are ultimately responsible for what plays on our airwaves,
and we will work to make sure this kind of thing doesn't happen again.
We sincerely apologize to you, Camilla, and your entire team.
Staley would answer.
Accepted with love and understanding, former legislator Mandy Powers Norrell
would write love Coach Staley for calling out the CBS sports podcast this morning
that called Camilla the giant Brazilian woman from SC that knocks people over.
They issued a swift apology, as they should.
Thankful these women have a great coach who goes to bat for them.
As always, if there are any stories we miss, if there are any that you would
like to submit, get at me and follow me on Twitter Instagram, TikTok as long as
our stupid lawmakers allow it to continue.
And if you can, please support our network, go to tyt.com.
Slash join, why don't you? This obviously stems from the fight that
occurred where there was pushing, shoving
a member of LSU's team, their brother
going onto the court because of the melee.
Dawn Staley treating this very well
and saying that they're apologetic.
It doesn't reflect their core values.
And then on the opposite end, Kim Mulkey basically saying no, she should
have done it to someone her own size.
Would love to see what Angel Reese would have done if she was in there.
So you have such contrasting styles here between the head coaches.
But it seemed as though, as well, that the dust had settled
and we were finally moving on from the biggest story that even got
mad love on undisputed first take.
Get up like the biggest sport shows that are still on television
was talking about it.
And then. Suddenly out of nowhere on national radio.
JR Sport Brief, who I said has been around for years, said this of Camila Cardoso.
Which was terrible.
There is a way to be objective, and I know that some will say that,
oh, you're reaching.
No, there's no reaching here. There's no reaching.
You know, it tells me there's no reaching is that JR has not said a thing about it
yet, and it's been up for like three hours at the time that we shoot this right now.
I don't know when it's going to get posted, but at the time we shoot this,
he has said nothing.
And yet you have sister stations apologizing publicly.
To the head coach, who, by the way, kudos.
Demanding answers sticking up for her players.
How? Wouldn't.
A recruit loves seeing that.
How wouldn't a player love seeing that many get hung out to dry,
even by Kim Mulkey?
But Don Staley goes to bat. I love to see that.
What I want to see from JR is a sincere apology.
Not one of those I'm sorry if I offended.
It was taken the wrong way. No no, no.
Apologize for it. It was a brutal assessment of what was
an ugly situation between these two ball clubs that could meet in the Final Four.
I will tell you, as a staunch listener
of local sports radio here in Chicago.
One of the things that really grinds
my gears is the fact that we don't have
the locality of these stations anymore, because those at the top
don't see the value.
It's very similar to newspapers instead of, let's say, for example,
the Chicago Tribune or the Sun-Times.
I'm just using an example.
Instead of them hiring local writers to cover stuff,
they will reprint the Associated Press.
Yahoo! Sports does this all the time as well.
And it's a damn shame because these are institutions
that badly need the local voice.
It sucks.
And I hear these CBS sports minutes instead of hearing actual update anchors.
I don't want to hear these guys takes.
I just don't. I don't care to hear.
Jim Rome, CBS Sports Minute although he's taking his show to Twitter
a stunning like move.
But I hear I hear these takes and they're just kind of nonsense.
Like I hear Tiki Barber.
Talking trash about something that he clearly just learned about.
Or I value like Jon Wertheim, but like his his takes.
I think it's Jon Wertheim, his takes on like, something that's just.
Like it is.
Simply a sponsored 60s for CBS to make an extra buck.
I never enjoy them and apparently this is the end result.
