JEALOUS ESPN’s Michael Wilbon Takes Shot At Pat McAfee | OutKick Hot Mic

[@vernonhowell4070]

Pat's show is leased it is not a ESPN show. ESPN has no say on how that show runs, PTI is a ESPN show and has to follow ESPN rules and standards.

[@thecurbsidechoir8783]

agree. Wilbon should realize this and shut his mouth. also, I love the PTI show, but Wilbon has had some strange days during the last 5 years. too much of the 'fat cat" syndrome (way too complacent). he HAS to know that PTI different from PMS. Also, the PMS gets bleeped on ESPN, it is not a blank check to say whatever you want.

[@TmoneybagsWalker]

I wish Pat wasnt on ESPN, Pats show was better when they werent

[@kwais616]

Its really not much different lol

[@busdrivers3365]

Also is still the best show by far even with the little changes. And I still watch it on KZbin, not espn.

[@cliftonmcmullen7167]

Still a great show but Pat prior to ESPN was better. Google/YT his Urban Meyer commentary when he was Jags coach and got caught on camera. Hilarious and wouldn’t be allowed on Disney.

[@jaredgarrison333]

@@busdrivers3365it’s really the best show?

[@T.Hang11]

EDIT: The a** eating segment because of Coach Pagano yesterday was prime PMS..highly recommend it 😅 For the first few months they censored themselves and made a whole gimmick out of the F word 🤣🤣🤣 Now they just don’t care..we’re back to the F word making jokes about conspiracy theories..Bill Cosby and Epstein joke..🤣 we’re all the way back baby!!!

[@nolandemartino5420]

Pat McAfee can get away with it because he doesn’t need ESPN they need him. He was getting 30 mil a year from fan duel and espns ratings were dropping at an alarming rate.

[@Thephrodpod]

10000%

[@stevenstocker7425]

Micheal Wilbon is known on record as blaming and basically starting a lynch mob to go after Steve bartman for the CUBS losing in the 2003 nlcs. I lost some respect For him after that

[@vasuviusjones5883]

I've heard Micheal Wilbon cuss multiple times on his show.

[@sindeejohnson2505]

Pat is just a better negotiator!!

[@kcook8023]

Espn and Disney suck. PTI is so boring. Pat is the man

[@kwais616]

Pti is horrrible its gone on 20 years too long

[@jeffprice2008]

boys ESPN chassed Pat down knowing this is the his stick

[@kwais616]

Wilbon is soooo boring lmao retire

[@TheBloves13]

This seems more like yall have a problem with Pat. Seems like yall trying to fish for problem where there aint no water.

[@xTheRedShirtX]

Pat's deal with ESPN is to keep his show how he wants to do it. He doesn't need ESPN so who cares what he does. Do your own thing and get better at it. Love Pat's show.

[@TNfamilyman]

McAfee is the king of football entertainment!

[@WiscoPhisherman44]

facts!!

[@mig7649]

McAfee doesn't need ESPN.. Whaaaa.. cry more.

[@jonkentalks]

Be who you can afford to be as Pat says.

[@chrisnugent6507]

Wilbon passive aggressively telling ESPN he's about to whip out his dei/race card 🤣 always a victim always always the victim 🙄

[@garybrown5391]

Why would Wilbon be jealous? This is stupid. He has decades of experience. You get his point, and you misinterpret his point on purpose. Stop it. They are 2 different age groups from 2 different schools (social media age/journalism), hence the difference. But, you good ole boys play it up.

[@Thephrodpod]

Strong Harris Waltz vibes

[@deepdiver3084]

ESPN is not public airwaves. It’s basic cable. The FCC doesn’t have jurisdiction over cable. ESPN may have their own standard about whether to use the f bomb.

[@lestat964]

Its amazing they dont know this!

[@kwais616]

This guy in the grey is so clueless lmao 😭 my as well say “im a dumbass”

[@Buddzzy]

You can’t have this argument unless you know the contracts.

[@gregnielson7975]

Deon loves playing the victim

[@lestat964]

You are allowed to curse on CABLE. ESPN has a policy for their employees to not do so, Pat dosnt work for ESPN, he has a partnership with them. They need him, not the other way around.

[@Willard-l7t]

Meyer had what 31 arrests and Aaron Hernandez during his time a UF? Good job guys.

[@TheMrmike121]

Wilson works for an espn owned show. Espn essentially leases the PM show. It's apples and oranges tbh.

[@kwais616]

PATS SMARTER THAN ALL OF THEM ESPN DOESNT OWN HIS SHOW THEY JUST AGREE TO PUT IT ON TV 😭🤣 NOT HIS FAULT. Big difference

[@curtiswarren6150]

wow its disappointing hearing wilbon. i probably haven't watched espn in 7-10 years but Wilbon was definitely one of my favorite people to watch. when i think of that dude the words character & intelligence come to mind. He just always conducted himself in an admirable manner, at least he did on camera. I guess now he's just 1 MORE complaining race baiter. smh 🤷🏽‍♂that never fails to be a bummer.

[@brianferry1853]

Wilbon grew up on the South Side of Chicago and is a Cub fan, thats all you need to know about him.

[@edwardgentry7418]

Jealous much? Smh

[@gregnielson7975]

Pat should have kept his show with Fanduel

[@gregnielson7975]

Espn is such trash 🗑

[@devinmoose]

ESPN signed McCaffee knowing the stipulations. 1. Pay me this amount 2. I get to say and speak the way I did at the other place. I love PTI, it's my favourite sports show. However, Wilbon lacks any objectivity when it comes to race. He is like most black people, they lack any accountability and are never wrong, eventhough every race looks at black people the same way. Wilbon will look for any reason to play the victim and play the race card. He supports everything black, even if he has no information on hand.

[@scottbenfield7105]

How hard is for whiners like Wilbon to understand? You work for ESPN, McAfee does NOT! They license his show to put on ESPN. I guess they can "fire" him from Gameday but he wouldn't care. You are on the chopping block next Wilbon.

[@T.Hang11]

“Be who you can afford to be..” - Pat McAfee EDIT: There’s a guy name Dick Good who bleeps out the F word on Pat’s show for ESPN Live.if you watch it on YT/Tik Tok/X the word isn’t censor. Pat talks about this on his show consistently..😒 it’s out there guys. Pat’s show is LICENSED on EPSN..no other show is licensed on ESPN except Pat’s show. Rules are different because their show is literally different 🤷‍♀️ Maybe they should write the F word into their contract..seems kinda funny but CYA people..lawyers do it so should you.

[@mgentles3]

Anybody who doesn't want to hear Pat's mouth has the option of MANY other sports shows. I grew up with civility and family friendly programming. Life has changed. First cable, then satellite, then the internet changed everything. Now I accept the new reality and simply say that if you don't want to hear or see certain things, choose other programming. There's no point in trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube or trying to cancel people if you don't like their speech. If the FCC did their job at all, they'd do something about the blatant lies passing as 'news' with legacy media. BTW, Pat IS his own thing. He's like Trump in that he's being his authentic self (which happens to be a huge personality and a superstar) and ESPN probably loves the fact that he's not their employee, yet is making them money hand over fist. BTW, I won't even click on a Smith thumbnail. The man is a racist.

[@giuseppelarocca2930]

He’s just lowkey jealous bro lol

[@goldenpheasant4402]

Pat negotiated it in his contract. End of story

[@MichaelPetrone-ng5yx]

Wilbon completely useless for 6 Mill

[@CarlosRen1776]

He negotiated it in to his contract. Literally do research.

[@zachclayton2892]

I watched this live and Mike was not taking a shot at Pat at all. He was making a joke and using Pat as a point to say he was so angry he would like to curse. Hes also in his 60s and thats not he came up so he wont just do it.

[@goraiders6453]

You ppl complicate the simplest thing. Pat DOES NOT work for espn. They pay to air HIS show. Why can’t ppl understand the difference?

[@lpn8585]

Wilbon nor Korn would get suspended for dropping an fbomb

[@kevinbohn2317]

Called leverage

[@davidwashburn5951]

I love wilbon, but I don't care about him, I care about mcafee, Wilbon is old and a journalist, and the viewers don't care point blank

[@nellwilliams8247]

Pat and his crew act like teenagers, they act like people are stupid. We can't just talk sports unless everything is dumb down and acting like clowns.

[@jasonsullivan5827]

Pat McAfee is a dude you have a beer with and Willson is a dude yell @ you have that beer

[@MateoOld]

Boo hoo old man is mad he is owned by espn while Pat works WITH espn

[@bocephus822]

Wilbon is a toad. Maybe he should wake up and realize he's not at the same level of popularity as Pat. His energy level resembles Biden on the beach.

[@dthom212]

Urban will return now since saban retired

[@jaredgarrison333]

I’m sorry but I think pats show is god awful. I see why his ratings are trash.

[@patrickjackson1989]

Yall actually doing a whole segment on this lil nothing. corny

[@jeffprice2008]

I've liked Mike forever, F . Tony , back to Mike If Like The Black T-Shirt YOU got promission NOT SHURE THEY COULD NOT STOP YOU

[@skipcampbell239]

Pat rules espn sucks

[@jaredgarrison333]

Have you seen his ratings?
