That doesn’t make much sense to me. I'm assuming he wasn't making much with this position , financially at least his wife will rake in much more $$ but ya I'd love to have that job. Man I'd prefer a bunch of posters on here

Rc2catch Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Panther guy replacing him huh? Seems ol ESPN sees the writing on the wall for the next powerhouse of the east. Have to get someone with Carolina ties in to cover the bills playoff runs the next 10+ years. One can hope right

gobills1212 Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 Does this guy not know? His professional career just hit a wall! He will now spend his time never breaking any stories while writing retread stories after the fact. The CO must not have been a good gig or ESPN must pay well bc unless he decides to reinvent the wheel, all he will be doing is reporting said wheel is round. 1

Man I'd prefer a bunch of posters on here I don't think it really is a great gig. I think it is good in terms of potential exposure for a writer. However, I don't think it does much for them unless they are covering New York, Chicago, LA, Dallas and that's about it. Probably philly too. Those markets will get you a lot of calls. Buffalo, not so much. Whoever is covering Cleveland better take advantage of this year lol.

He’s leaving because he’s moving to Bama - his wife’s residency is up at UB and they want to be closer to family Saw that.. seems like a weak excuse tho. He cant be from Alabama right? We all convinced ourselves he was a Pats* spy. He gotta be from Mass.

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 5 hours ago, Lurker said: What's ESPN?... ESPN is a dumpster fire of sub par sports reporting. I can remember when Sportscenter was widely watched and considered a good source of legitimate sports reporting. They've lost that and haven't been good for quite a while. It doesn't surprise me that they have a lot of turnover with their employees.
Mikie2times Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 This collusion between Beane and ESPN must stop. I request an independent panel be formed to determine Beanes involvement in the hiring of one Marcell Louis-Jacques for this position. I would like Mr. Rodak subpoenaed immediately and questioned for his involvement. Living closer to family? Is that really the truth Mr. Rodak? Bills nation must protect the integrity of Bills reporting. Attica! Attica!
The Dean Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 8 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: I was just starting to like Rodak. I thought he did a decent job but we held his New England ties against him. Oh well, on to the next one My exact response. As he got to know the team/players he got a bit better and seemed to pay a bit more attention. I never really thought he was anti-Bills. But he was a Pat's* guy and early on he seemed pretty lazy. He got a bit better. I knew the new reporter would catch s#it here once people heard he previously covered the Panthers. 1

Wnybricky Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Hit the Rodak and don’t cha come back no more no more no more no more. 2
