ESPN Says Bruce Feldman Never Suspended. Sure, and China is Not Communist

In a terse statement that was released this hour by ESPN, the Alleged Worldwide Leader says college football writer Bruce Feldman was never suspended. If that was the case, why was his Twitter account dormant all this time? This is a person who practically tweets every ten minutes. And if that was the case, then why did it take ESPN almost 24 hours to craft a 46 word statement saying that Feldman was never suspended? This does not make sense.

ESPN Statement Regarding Bruce Feldman

“There was never any suspension or any other form of disciplinary action. We took the time to review his upcoming work assignments in light of the book to which he contributed and will manage any conflicts or other issues as needed. Bruce has resumed his assignments.”

You can take that for what its worth, but ESPN could have nipped this in the bud right after SportsbyBrooks broke the story, but instead chose to let it fester. This statement from the Kremlin really doesn’t help the speculation that Feldman was suspended for co-authoring the book with ousted Texas Tech Coach Mike Leach.
