    Endure?

    Seems dramatic.

    Agreed.

    I would never expect a Grantland ex-pat to fully unpack that Skipper's excessive approach fail to store up much goodwill capital; he burned millions and millions on boutique operations. But it's a good commentary for sure.

    When was the last time you tuned into ESPN without knowing what’s on?

    That's a pretty good line. For me, it's only in hotel rooms.

    I'm just glad it's there even if I don't want to tune in. It's still the blanket, minus Linus

    Not really. He went to Meadowlark but is still doing appearances on Around the Horn and PTI.

    That article listed Bomani Jones, and he's still there. His new show is in HBO but his podcast is on ESPN, and I think he re-upped fairly recently.

    Not at all JACKASS I CHALLENGE YOU TO A FIGHT AT PENN STATION :D

    But I'm not watching ESPN unless I have to, and I suspect I'm far from alone.

    LeBatard’s podcasting venture with John Skipper.

    Oh no wonder I don’t know it because Skipper is one of a handful of people I personally hate.

    Don’t get it. When was the last time anyone tuned into anything without knowing whats on? Every TV has the built in guide now. ESPN is always on my ‘let me scroll down and see which games on’ list, whatever that means in his query
