emily: your friend and podcast partner bill simmons called be commissioner of the nfl a liar.n suspended him. was that the right decision? malcolm: it was totally the wrong decision. if a sports columnist in a podcast can't exercise free speech. calling him a liar is not like it came out of nowhere. one reasonable conclusion from the whole ray rice saga is that the commissioner of the nfl knew about the existence of the videotape and was lying about it. i'm not saying that is what he did but it's a reasonable conclusion. that in the course of expressing their opinions, sports columnists are allowed to draw conclusions. apparently not. apparently you get suspended for that. i thought it was an embarrassing moment. emily: do you think football still disappears, still goes away? malcolm: i don't see how it doesn't. i think it will start to shrivel up at the high school and college level and then the pro game will eventually wither on the vine. boxing was one of the biggest sports in this country in the 1920's and 1930's. where is it now? emily: what about print media? the future
