et’s get crazy and play pretend. Let’s imag- ine that a white ESPN male anchor, during the presidency of Barack Obama, put out a Lseries of tweets calling Mr. Obama a racist and said he was ignorant and offensive.

Management would fire the doofus in the blink of an eye and would put out a noble statement declaring that ESPN doesn’t tolerate that kind of hatred from its employees.

PREP FOOTBALL Maintaining momentum Barons, Generals each look to build off big wins as SCISA rivals set to clash in Dalzell

Both the Wilson Hall and Thomas Sumter Academy football teams have momen- tum heading into today’s matchup at General Field in Dalzell — although they came about it in much different ways. The Barons turned in a dominant performance against Cardinal Newman in a 35-0 victory that was high- lighted by the WH second- ary’s four interceptions. The Generals meanwhile had to almost march the en- tire length of the field in the final 2-plus minutes to pull of a game-winning touchdown in a 32-28 win over Augusta Christian School. Both are looking for that momentum to carry over into the 7:30 p.m. contest as the two teams take a break from region play to renew their ri- valry. “I thought by far (last week) was the best we’ve played,” Wilson Hall head coach Adam Jarecki said. “It was a com- plete game.
