Cleveland Once A Week Radio Personality Fired - Accused Peppers of Drug Use
Sabrina Parr during her "participation" of a broadcast on ESPN 850 in Cleveland accused Peppers of being on the "lean and molly" and that he's "high all the time". The YouTube link to the show with said statements is included within the article.
The best part is when she claims to have been "misquoted" on Twitter, to which another person responds "you can't be misquoted on the radio, it's literally your own voice saying those words".
Lean = Promethazine couh syrup mixed with pop or juice.
Molly = Purest form of MDMA or Ecstacy

EDIT: Fixed a few spelling errors
EDIT EDIT: Changed the title to reflect Ms. Parr's accurate job title and affliation with said broadcast as the MGoCommunity can be, as my students put it "petty".
Julius Peppers wasn't mentioned. However:
- "Lean" is more commonly known as "Drank" (you may recall me from Sippin' on Purple)
- Drank was mentioned by the "reporter" as one of Jabrill Peppers's preferred substances*
- You can make Drank by mixing cough syrup with an Orange Julius
- Orange is one of the colors on the Browns' jerseys
So I think I see where you were headed, and how it's all connected!
*Recklessly, and without evidence.
Anyone who is in DC this week is entitled to be a bit addled! Assuming your user name is accurate, you have plenty of cover.
Without straying into the politics of it, it's fair to say it's been a ... busy week in our nation's capitol.
lol completely agree. It's chaotic here for ...reasons.
I'm glad there is some accountability there.
How did someone with such an utter lack of class get hired on the radio?
Sports Talk Radio - The Paragon of Class.
jobs.
She used to sleep with one of the players on the Browns, and used the connections she forged during that time to gather gossip.
Well, Jemele Hill now has her own tv show, so there's that.
That would actually stregthen the victim angle, that he failed the test due to rec drugs rather than PEDs
She tried to out Jemele Hill Jemele Hill. Never ever try to out Jemele Hill Jemele Hill!
Glad to see this dope suffer for her stupidity. Hopefully she learns a lesson from this, and changes her approach. ("I was misquoted" on radio is just ... wow.)
ESPN seems to think full Jemele is a primetime must....ugh
Tropic Thunder is an all-timer in my book.
with the awesome result of setting her career back a few years as well
With the way that industry is shedding employees, I'm guessing it will be more than a few years.
I can assure you she has never had a career in radio or as a reporter.
only leads to enhanced standing/recognition. In pop culture, unless your statements are about very specific taboo things, this kind of publicity typically enhances the person's public profile. Sad, but that is where we are at. Merica!
...of blowback. Ought to teach this one in school.
This stuff wouldn't happen. Its just unlogical hate from OSU fans. Living in Cbus its really funny to hear Browns fans losing their minds over this.
I listen to Riz every morning, he is first and foremost a BROWNS fan regardless of where the player came from. He was a huge proponent of drafting Peppers.
Sabrina is a bit player on the show, yesterday was the first time I had heard her on the air in months.
This wasnt something where there was a media firestorm and they were forced to fire her. It happened yesterday, and Riz fired her the following morning.
Riz's sidekick on the show also hates Ohio State, the problem is he's the biggest douchebag on the planet and I hate him.
The youtube mashup on OPs link was painful. Her co-hosts were clearly uncomfortable with what she was saying.
She sounds like a know it all dumb ass. Glad they canned her.
Here's the rather hilarious exchange mentioned by the OP:

That's at least 4 years away, and you don't know that for certain. He's going to perform at a high level and the bullshit criticism from all angles will probably subside.
If that's possible.
I think the real question is whether it's possible to have an uncrappy version of Jemele Hill.
Keep swinging
An less crappy version of Jemele Hill is pretty much like a less ruthless version of Genghis Khan or a less musically-gifted version of Mozart or a less trashy version of a Boren-spawn.
