More Cuts at ESPN

This'll be an interesting thread to follow today

 

How about one thread about the ESPN layoffs?

 

Tweets 34 minutes apart.

 

That's a direct shot at Clay Travis.

 

From the end of the Deadspin link:

Additionally, The Hollywood Reporter reports that ESPN will let SportsCenter anchor John Buccigross’s contract expire this summer, and that Karl Ravech, Ryen Russillo, and Hannah Storm will see their roles at the network “significantly reduced.”

Ravech could make a seamless transition to MLB Network, I would think.

 

Only problem with Ravech at MLB is he's good and the dude who currently hosts their nightly show is a train wreck, which makes the show even more watchable.

 

And a good one!

 

I don't like Clay Travis at all!

But he's been out in front on the ESPN issue. Not only that, he's successfully been able to introduce the idea that ESPN is struggling because of its political bent.

Nevertheless, Hall is a smarm factory. Write a rebuttal. Don't sniff on Twitter.

 

But it's a stupid and incorrect idea.

 

How is it successful?

 

Appears as if at least one soon-to-be-ex-ESPN staffer won't be out of a job for long.

Odds on favorite is Buccigross, but I could see Rovell as a sneaky play. If ESPN let SVP go, it'd be a lock.

 

Check out the comments on any article about ESPN. They're filled with people saying that ESPN has it coming for hiring all those liberals and negroes.
