Royale with Cheese Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Sal Paolantonio was supposed to be a cut until the ESPN president woke up with a horse head in his bed. He also received a Sicilian message in the mail....the package was full of fish.
Wagon Circler Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) Just another example of the 1% keeping us down. How much does the CEO make? They'll probably get replaced by chinese announcers. Edited April 26, 2017 by Just Jack politics

No announcers, please!! I can see exactly what happened out there, 1 in 15 hired has something interesting to listen do during lulls in the broadcast. Worst is the three doing Final Four games, add nothing but screaming someone dunked the ball out there...
Doc Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 No network is losing money on their NFL contract. It is the only guaranteed money maker on TV year after year. Yeah, that's why ESPN is cutting 100 people today. They're paying the NFL $800M more a year than the next closest network. Expect that to change in 2022.

Expect that to change in 2022. The NBA is the league with several outrageous long term contracts that never made sense for even one second, they have to rewrite the rules to get out of this mess every so often.

row_33 Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 ESPN saying nothing at all? I guess they hope nobody notices.
Kirby Jackson Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 ESPN saying nothing at all? I guess they hope nobody notices. They didn't say much which is appalling. Bob Ley commented.
Reed83HOF Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Oh jw John WawrowVerified account @john_wawrow 13m13 minutes ago Apparently, espn's broadcast content will now feature: 6 hours of Rex Ryan wearing a Clemson helmet. 6 hours of stephen a smith yelling.
Beef Jerky Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Don't need to feel sad for Werner, he will get a better job now.
dpberr Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 All of these people got cut for a simple reason. They don't yell nearly enough. You don't see Stephen A. Smith unemployed do you? ESPN is doomed. I doubt it'll be around in 2022 to renegotiate the contract. Signs of irreversible decline are everywhere. Their website is even garbage.
eball Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 They didn't say much which is appalling. Bob Ley commented. Mort commented while he was on SiriusXM NFL Radio earlier as well. Said it was a sad day to see so many friends and good journalists let go.
Doc Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 The NBA is the league with several outrageous long term contracts that never made sense for even one second, they have to rewrite the rules to get out of this mess every so often. They've overpaid/been overpaying for lots of content.
Just Jack Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 ESPN saying nothing at all? I guess they hope nobody notices. One article I saw said they wanted the people leaving to make the announcement, not the corporation.

LeviF Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Did they cancel the "ESPY's" yet ? No way, that's when they can pat themselves on the dick for being so with it! After all, it's the current year!
eball Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 Sorry to Len Elmore go...loved that guy on BB Yep, he's a good one.
