I still don't know what "wokeness" means. Perhaps someone can explain it to me? I'm not up to date with contemporary Nazi.

The word 'woke' as an adjective (and now a derived noun, I guess) seems to have suddenly started popping up all over the media in the last month. As an old person I find this annoying. Please stop doing it. However, it's still not as annoying as the use of 'optics' for 'appearances'.

The announcer was also part of the decision himself, and it doesn't sound like it's even unusual to switch games.

People getting up in arms about others getting up in arms is fabulous. Con news outlets create imagined outrage on a regular basis.

I personally don't care what ESPN decides to do.

If it's something he wanted to do, then whatever.

I don't really trust all the ppl on the left not to wander into right winger traps.
