100 Espn employees are going to be fired, some including on air talents No not employees. All on air talents. This includes all their divisions though. Basically anyone that could be called upon to be on air. So journalists, team beat reporters, everyone. Anyone with a contract and agent. Not the janitors. |

The 100 people getting cut are all %u201Con-air talent,%u201D a label ESPN uses for TV personalities, radio hosts, and writers who regularly appear on TV and radio. (ESPN says it has 1,000 such people, prior to these cuts.) |

Good. Hopefully they start with Michael Smith and Jemele Hill so the good Sportscenter can come back. They're only on air for one hour per day. Sportscenter is still there wtf. Besides they just got that raise, they aren't going anywhere. Neither is stephen a, max or either of the mikes. ANYONE else could be fired.
R.I.P. Dave Mirra. Truly a legend

Looking at the list, it just looks like they're downsizing and getting rid of failed ends that they created.
On-air personalities is technically right, but most of them are on the big stage |

kannell sucked. good riddance

He wasn't a raging jackass and that made him refreshing.
Guess the f***ing inmates own the asylum now. |

Wow.
Basically if you're annoying you were safe.Damn dude, all the no-BS people are being shown the door, this tell me SC Is gonna go TMZ-mode for views.
They're already showing memes.
Well, to be honest I don't watch it anymore. I watch clips online if I want to see them. Maybe this is just what 21st century news programs are. Still, it sucks to see some of the names I've respected for a long time get chopped doing what they love.
Stark and Crawford especially. And it sounds like Ravech and Storm are going to have their roles reduced. That's sad to see, but maybe some of these will grow from it. ESPN was always a young man's channel and some of them got old.berlyman101 posted...Damn dude, all the no-BS people are being shown the door, this tell me SC Is gonna go TMZ-mode for views.

Sportsnation is an entire show based around stealing whatever was posted on the sports subreddits and the front page the days before. There is nothing original on it, its just reddit content.bobbysjoby posted...Molly: "don't forget to catch ALL THE FLAAAVA on sportcenter 6 this afternoon!"
lol espn trying so hard to be hip
I'm pretty sure all content polling they did was at the food court of a mall where they ask people to stop and fill out a questionaire for 10 minutes for a dollar. It would explain why all content is aimed at teenagers and idiots. It would also explain why the network is hemorrhaging money because no one that is the actual target audience would ever stop for a pollster.How the f*** are they going to get rid of an OG like Jay Crawford and keep Jamele f***ing Hill around. She should be at the very top of the chopping block, not protected because she latched onto Michael Smith who's talented as f***.
Ed Werder shouldn't have been let go either.
Kannell and Dilfer going is fine.#MAGA

I think you just lick windows. The segment they did on pizza toppings was JUST AMAZING. Or how about the 7 minute analogy to Disney movie thats coming out? Oh man, I love when they come up with top 5 lists of players with a Jr. in their name. Oh man I love it when they fake flirt and talk about how Smith likes feet and Jemele doesn't.
Its not possible to be called racist for not liking that s***. Its all as f***ing white as life gets. Its also pure f***ing nonsense.
The only person that's racist here is you because you're the only one bringing up skin color. You're the bigot that just sees skin color.derrate posted...FrisbeeDude posted...

i know he had nothing to do with basketball coverage, but i remember the dude from wayyyy back when i kinda kept up with nascar. and i really stopped watching that since back when Dale Earnhardt Sr. passed in that wreck so i had no clue Punch was still covering stuff on the channel. Happy trails to him i guess.Big_Boss_DAE posted...derrate posted...

Lmfao on point afBudDupree48 posted...Why do people like labatard
His show with Stugotz every morning/afternoon is legit funny. Whether it's the grid of death during football season, the crazy interviews, the looks like game, stugotz being stugotz, Mike Ryans dirty demon of debate, Dan getting suspended because of buying billboards in Cleveland to make fun of LeBron I just find it all great.
I hated him at first because of his rants about the Pacers back in the day but it turns out I just didn't get the show. There's nothing better on ESPN than his show.#MAGA
