Glanville is the perfect example of what's wrong here. He's too reserved and actually has thoughts. He doesn't just say things.

I see them having another round of lay offs sooner than later. ESPN has just been going downhill for a while. Way too many other options out there to get your sports.

There just came a time where I thought that they got too cute with nearly all of their programming. As well as too contrived. Like I said earlier, I really only watch Live events on there anymore.

Wonder if these will still continue throughout the day like yesterday? Or was that it for a little while?

Britt McHenry - Reporter
Thought she was fine until that video came out of her trying to get her car out of the impound was released saying "do you know who I am?" and "I'm on television.." Once anyone says that, they can promptly go fuck themselves. That's the most annoying thing any person with any little fame can say.

Britt McHenry - Reporter Liked her until that video came out of her trying to get her car out of the impound was released saying "do you know who I am?" Once anyone says that, they can promptly go fuck themselves. That's the most annoying thing any person with any little fame can say. I'm definitely with you in theory. However, she was at a tow yard. I think all rules of civilization go out the window when dealing with those cretins. For that reason, and certainly no other attributes, I forgot about it to have her reporting instead of Sal Paolantonio.

Oh you certainly won't get any argument from me when having to deal with the tow yard folks, it's just man, any time they drop those lines, I lose so much respect for that person.

You can't make this shit up. ESPN is also going to air MLB Network's Intentional Talk. One of the only reasons I still have my cable package is MLB Network. I could watch it all day. Except when Intentional Talk or Russo is on. I get upset when I see a commercial for Intentional Talk. Who are the fucking people that watch this garbage? We live in a society where Intentional Talk is getting multiple channels and a President that talks about Fake News. I would write a script for a drama version of Idiocracy but you only have to walk outside. Fuck.

He and Stark strike me as two really respected guys that were making too much money due to longevity.

Sara Walsh is gone too. She was gone on maternity leave after having twins.
Seriously, fuck ESPN. She was awesome. And a smoke show.

How the fuck is Darren Rovell still employed?

They've fired very little in the way of NBA reporters/analysts. Wonder if as the playoffs start to end, they'll start letting people go in that area?
But I agree with you Woodridge, Rovell should've been gone LONG ago.

No way.
Where will we ever find another sports business expert or whatever the fuck it is he does?

A positive of this whole situation. The Sports Reporters, which I haven't watched since 1995, has been replaced by a weekly Sunday morning E:60 with Bob Ley and Jeremy Schapp.

John Clayton was apparently fired by ESPN. Always enjoyed whenever he was on.
He tweeted that he's keeping the ponytail (if you remember the famous commercials he did for the network).

They still have to keep SOME personalities, right? Every person can't be a millennial that can talk good or an attractive girl.
