Some Nutjob Sports Fan Sent ESPN’s Jemele Hill the Most Racist Letter Ever
All, ESPN, Media Gossip/Musings, Race, What the hell is wrong with people January 4th. 2013, 11:40am
ESPN’s Jemele Hill, who is a columnist and sideline reporter, also occasionally fills in for hosts on ESPN radio. In October, she was a substitute for Colin Cowherd on “The Herd,” and at least one sports fan was bitter enough with her three hour performance to write a nasty letter to her, complete with repugnant racist statements.
The all-caps screams serial killer, right? At the minimum, this individual is unhinged, unwashed, friendless, heavily-medicated and hoarding something (hopefully, not weapons).
Man, this is depressing. [via Jemele Hill]

It’s a pretty deplorable letter, but I don’t think it’s the most racist ever.

The most offensive part of the letter is the punctuation.

January 4th, 2013 at 11:50 AM
I couldn’t write in lower case if I tried. All caps for years, especially since I very rarely actually write anything.

My hand writing has gone from crappy to downright embarrassing over the last 5ish years. I type almost everything, so when I take notes or write I feel borderline retarded.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:52 AM
And I agree, I bet Jemelle wrote it herself so she can build up more capital to talk about race in every avenue of sport.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:52 AM
Are you suggesting spencer wrote this letter? Not cool, man.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:52 AM
She tweeted that 89% of the handwritten letters she gets are racist. I’m guessing it gets pretty hard to keep ignoring people like this after awhile.

I feel like that is par for the course for anyone who voluntarily listens to Colin Cowherd.
But seriously… who actually writes letters?
Or possibly a Republican candidate for President.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:54 AM
When was the last time you guys sat down and hand-wrote a letter? As a Sophomore I wrote a letter to another high school computer class as part of a school project. Haven’t done it since.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:54 AM
Is it sad that was one of the things that stood out to me? I was a bit jealous.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:54 AM
I dislike Jemelle Hill as much as I dislike David Pollack, Jesse Palmer, and the knot in Merril Hodges tie, but I certainly wouldn’t write her a letter and call her a thick lipped gorilla. Whore? Maybe, but not a gorilla.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:54 AM

I haven’t written a letter is at least a decade, but I do write thank you notes.

I just tried to write something in cursive for shits and giggles. It got ugly.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:56 AM
Also, the excessive use of the dash-pause and quotation marks is just annoying.
But seriously… if you have ever seen what (mostly high-schoolers) write on twitter in response to the election/gay rights/Joel Ward, this girl is hardly even an extremist. The fact that she didn’t threaten her, or suggest physical violence, is the most surprising part.
January 4th, 2013 at 11:56 AM

I’ve essentially forgotten how to write in cursive to the point where I make up what some of the letters should look like. Lowecase z? Not happening.

I’d write you a letter saying yes, but you wouldn’t be able to read it and it would take me an hour to write it.

January 4th, 2013 at 12:03 PM
It’s like the writer hit all the racist talking points. Ebonics. Gorilla, Speak Chucker, Jungle Bunny, speak the Kings English.
My psychological evaluation is this person is a frustrated person who’s completed some education – likely some tiny right wing christian college. Small flyover town, probably mid-to-late 30′s. Not a real old person. Old people use much different racist words. This person is just accepting their full-on bigotry. Just realized mom and dad spent his inheritance and now angry at the world. What a loser.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:03 PM
He’s splitting hairs here as this letter is disgusting, but I suspect there are some letters floating about (or twitter feeds, Facebook pages, etc…) that would make this author blush. Sad reality of the world in which we live.

I wrote a thank you note on Wednesday to a friend who got me great concert seats.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:05 PM
Exactly. It’s not “literally” the most racist letter ever. But it’s bad.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:05 PM
I hate them as I don’t care one bit when I get one. I’ve told people to stop giving me cards all together. You want to say thank you? How about you call me and say thank you. To me that’s far more personal than a note. My wife, mother, mother-in-law and every other woman I’m around disagrees, however.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:06 PM
I bet you’re spot on Clarice.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:06 PM
I laughed out loud, actually. Why is anyone writing her a letter, especially a dude not into chicks?

January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
Reminds of when I was a juror a couple months ago for this guy getting busted for conspiracy to deal blow. One of the pieces of evidence was hand written letters between the defendant and a witness when they were both in prison. I was truly blown away of how great the penmanship was for both those guys. It was also entertaining when the prosecutor read the letter and paused before saying the N word every two sentences, but I am easily amused.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
I grew in a neighborhood full of immigrants and first-generation Americans who were not fond of black people in any way shape or form. I’d agree this is pretty tame. It’s still very hurtful.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
It struck me as weird. Like someone trying really hard to be racist, but without using any profanity, or any threats. Almost like he’s trying to be funny, without realizing he’s a terrible human being.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
I wrote out a grocery list two nights ago.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
I still don’t understand what would prompt someone to write a letter in response to content you get for free. This applies to posts here, as well as TV.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:07 PM
It’s so hard to believe this is real. Not in the “I think this is fake” sense, just in the “How the fuck could someone actually write (and send) this” sense.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:08 PM
50-60 years old. No way this person is in their thirties. If they were younger than 40, there would be way more “fuck” and “bitch”, and if it were soused, “cunt”.

January 4th, 2013 at 12:09 PM
Not since I signed up for Twitter. That’s my launchpad to success now.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:09 PM
The most racist letter is anything with an umlaut over it.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:09 PM
Just an idle thought, but what are the odds that the guy who wrote this letter was recently released from the Northern Alabama football team?
January 4th, 2013 at 12:10 PM
that’s because your stupid thank you call doesn’t showcase the class of that tan-ish card with the shiny chrome-colored border with a simple script “thank you” printed on the front.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:10 PM
actually, this is not even close to the most racist letter ever. one of my favorite books of all time is hank aaron’s autobigraphy “i had a hammer.” he included a bunch of the letters he used to get when he got close to babe’s record. its scary, and much worse than this.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:10 PM

January 4th, 2013 at 12:17 PM
I make a list, but I can only go in list order, so I probably walk 2 miles every time I go to the store, zigzagging between ends of the store. I’m terrible at grocery shopping.

Yeah I have a grocery app on my phone I can make lists with and check things off as I put them in the cart. It does kinda make me feel like an ass though. I do the paper list still about half the time.

My wife went to Sam’s and came back with a 24 pack of bags of Peanut Butter M&Ms for me to keep at work. Suffice it to say I’m doing my very best to knock her up so she can’t leave.

Nah, I don’t worry about BMI at all. But my point was just that I could lose 10 pounds, and would like to.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:39 PM
Exactly. I’ll not eat chocolate or sour cream or whatever before I’ll have the non-fat shit. If I want half and half, I want the real fucking thing. I don’t even know how it’s possible to make non-fat half and half. What the hell is it made of?

Kruger, you couldn’t smooth a silk sheet if you had a hot date with a babe.

False. Unless there’s a caveat that states you can have 0 ounces of muscle. At my self-proclaimed physical peak I was 6ft 190lbs (same as now, replaced muscle w/ fat) with a body fat % easily under 10. However, I lifted and ate well, leading to muscles
January 4th, 2013 at 12:50 PM
No way. I am literally off the chart, and while I don’t have a six pack, I don’t consider myself fat.

BMI is not a good indicator of fitness for people that workout and eat right as a way of life. I’m 6’1 197, which is overweight according to BMI, but I have a six pack. I’m not overweight.

Hernia, the answer to your question is a Macallan. It’s very middle of the road in terms of flavor. Pricing will be $40-$60, depending on sales and if you want a 12 or 15 year.
January 4th, 2013 at 12:56 PM
You’re an exception. As is St. Bear.
Yikes. I just looked at the chart. It’s less forgiving than I thought. I’m 5’11″ 160. Skinny, no doubt. But somehow I’m closer to overweight than underweight?
