RUSH EXCERPT:
ADLER: "I know that affected cosell. In a very negative way. And myself, I had a heart attack. Following the firing. I had to go on Twitter and defend myself. What I never quite didn’t understand and don’t understand is I had then relationship with ESPN. I had none of this in my background at all. Furthest thing away from me. And ESPN bowed down to Twitter and social media, who knew nothing about me?l how could they do that? How could they not do their due diligence and speak up for me. If my name were John McEnroe or Martina this never would have happened."
