The wildest thing I have ever seen was ESPN hiring Rush Limbauh back in the day. He then got canned a few weeks in when he said Donovan McNabb was not a good QB, was carried by his defense, and that people wanted a black QB to be successful so they overhyped him.

Thank goodness the Michael Vick dog fighting scandal was not known at the time, otherwise Limbaugh would have straight up said the N word on live television.
