Jason Whitlock calls Deion Sanders an ‘idiot’ after embarrassing media incident

Regard Jason Whitlock by Blaze TV's Fearless call 'donkey' Deion Sanders after an extremely awkward press conference in which Sanders behaved unnecessarily aggressively toward representatives of the local media and appeared to instigate petty theatrics with every question he answered.

Whitlock called the press conference “embarrassing” and said Sanders acted like a “petulant, spoiled child” who was above reproach. Whitlock said Sanders was a “coward” for picking on small-time newspaper columnists who were simply doing their job as opinion makers, and also showed us that as the “head” of a major college football program, he has no idea what he's doing.

Check out the segment above As Whitlock says, Sanders is a “feminine, fragile fraud” who thinks the media is inferior to him and a guy who is insanely insecure.

Jason Whitlock: “In 1992, I moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan, to cover the Fab Five basketball team. Their head coach was a guy named Steve Fisher. He became a very successful coach at San Diego State and was successful at Michigan. I ripped that guy weekly in the Ann Arbor News. He never did the kind of cowardly things that Deion Sanders does. Men don't do that. I was brutal to Steve Fisher. Not out of spite, but I didn't think Steve Fisher had the Fab Five team under control. I know they had some success, but it was all based on talent. They got in big trouble against disciplined, well-coached teams and got exposed. I remember writing a story about their stats and their lack of success against Bobby Knight, Mike Krzyzewski and Gene Keady. They gave them trouble. Steve Fisher and I played against each other for two years straight and he never pulled any of that crap. Did he like me? No. Did he talk about me behind my back? Yes. I have never experienced such cowardice.

Some of you are saying, “Deion is just tough! He won't stand for it! He's standing up to it!”… No. He's doing a Kamala Harris thing. Kamala Harris won't engage with the media. Deion Sanders, unless you kneel and bow to him… He started his comments to Sean Keeler with, “You don't like me! You don't like us! I don't know how you do it!”… That's what an 11-year-old girl would say. That's childish. That's not modeling young men the behavior they should grow up to be. That's petulant, that's a spoiled child. A spoiled athlete who never made the transition to being a real leader and head coach.

I don't care about the games he won at Jackson State. We've seen talented teams overcome terrible coaching and terrible leadership. You can buy your way up and cut corners on the way up. In modern America, that's actually preferable. But the people who want to defend that?? People say, “Yeah, they deserve it!” … Sean Keeler is harmless. Newspapers have been completely emasculated and disemboweled. They don't matter. This guy is harmless, and Deion acts like the guy dropped a nuclear weapon on him. All the while snorting every 45 seconds while wearing sunglasses. If you couldn't see it, and someone just described to you, “Hey, there's a coach who shows up to a press conference in the hall wearing dark sunglasses, snorting every 45 seconds, doesn't speak English, is argumentative and belligerent, and answers questions that weren't asked” — then you'd say, “Is Bubbles from TheWire the head coach of Colorado??'… If you didn't know that this was a Hall of Fame football player, you would have all kinds of questions. Is the Pookie from New Jack City?? That's the way it is. Deion needs help. All this ass-kissing, kneeling and idolatry is destroying Deion.

I expect them to win four or five games this year. I'm not going to say, “HEY, I'M WORRIED THEY'LL WIN 8, 9, 10 GAMES!” and then be embarrassed. At the end of the day, I don't care… I take it back… Because I want Deion to be exposed for the fraud he is. But if he succeeds, that doesn't justify his behavior. It just shows how corrupt this modern culture is and what we've done to the sport. Character and true leadership no longer matter.

Here's a man with very limited language skills, a very limited vocabulary, a man who, if you talk to anybody, skipped practically every class at Florida State University to start fights and correct people. One guy said, “Hey, you strengthened your offensive line,” and Deion goes off on a tangent and says he should have used the word “improved.” He's just argumentative and argues for no reason. He's out of his depth. That's an idiot. Great sport, but not all that smart. He thinks he plays chess; he plays checkers. If you bully people and don't engage with them, don't expect them to be thrilled or know what to ask of you except to kneel before you. You're unprofessional and nobody is holding you to any standards. You don't have a boss in Colorado who can walk you through it. Nobody can walk you through it because you think you're the smartest guy in any room. And in reality, you are the most insecure and fragile person.

Deion is a good-looking guy, he's famous, he wears gold, jewelry, sunglasses and looks the part, but trust me – when you're 57 years old and people call you by a nickname from your childhood and you wear gold chains and jewelry, it's all insecurity. When you have real confidence, the jewelry becomes irrelevant, the sunglasses become irrelevant and your critics become irrelevant to a certain extent.”
