They definitely didn't want to brush into the racist/sexist card. Andy Katz, I can't fault despite his value. They hit up beat reporters/writers the hardest in this round of firing because I think they're moving away from on-location talent for news and subject-matter writers for their website. He's one of their best but he was likely more expensive and eventually there will be nobody like him in their employ anyway.It sure seems like they made a big effort to lay off folks equally for different sports, positions, etc. in an effort to be "fair"....
But, why lay off people like Andy Katz -- who has tremendous value..... and keep others like Beth Mowans......who most people really can't stand?
91's correct. I just misread. I was shocked also and I should have double-checked...Is he really 60? I think he graduated from UA in 1988.
No worries. Actually, when looking at the Wikipedia page itself it shows this:91's correct. I just misread. I was shocked also and I should have double-checked...
On first blush I thought the scroll said "sports had been canceled"Turned out ESPN last night and this was on. 2 women wearing feminist shirts talking about police shootings. Yea, no doubt why ESPN is falling off so much. Imagine you get home and want to catch up on sports news/highlights for the day. You turn on ESPN and see this:
Well if they have shuffled her off to the NFL that is a good thing for me - since I never watch the NFL.so ESPN just somehow found a way to get even worse, Beth Mowins will be calling a MNF game next season.
Time to sync with Westwood One with Kevin Harland, jeez she's bad. Sound like rusty blade cutting sheet metal.so ESPN just somehow found a way to get even worse, Beth Mowins will be calling a MNF game next season.
I'm expecting Kaitlyn/Bruce Jenner to be announced as the new MNF sideline reporter.so ESPN just somehow found a way to get even worse, Beth Mowins will be calling a MNF game next season.
The folks who made that survey were criticized for only using one market. In answer to that, they went on to look at 43 markets, and the result is pretty much the same.So I don't get in more trouble than I should, I'll just put this link up, and let everyone peruse it at their own discretion.

(Emphasis mine, because...............well..........why not.)At a time where ESPN and the larger cable industry faces changes to its business model as consumption patterns and methods evolve, our data indicates that ESPN is also facing a partisan challenge. Given ESPN’s own admission that it has become more political – and on-the-record comments from ESPN talent saying that the network’s liberal nature is likely driving away viewers – this problem appears to be largely self-inflicted at a time when the network cannot afford to lose any more of its audience.
Yes, go read the short story "Harrison Bergeron" if you want to see how Kurt Vonnegut predicted how some people's ridiculous obsessions with equality/political correctness/individual rights over the common good would turn out. It served as a warning many years ago, but more and more it seems that we are headed down this preposterous path. When we continue to allow the individual rights of some to be valued more than the individual rights of others, or we try to force the word equality to mean that people are equal in every way instead of just their protection under the law is equal, we will look foolish in the end. The movie Idiocracy is another vision of how it seems common sense isn't so common any more.I'm expecting Kaitlyn/Bruce Jenner to be announced as the new MNF sideline reporter.
I can tell you that the Colon Kapernutcase was all it took for me to tune ESPN out for good. The few who dared criticize him were shortly made to apologize. Of course they said they were not made to apologize, but when we all know they will have to retract their words (and they do) then we all know they were made to "tow the company PC line." I hope they go bankrupt all the way to the PC poorhouse.The folks who made that survey were criticized for only using one market.

Yep. If they did not almost own SEC televised sports, I would never turn them on. I have actually gone to the expedient of listening to Alabama Sport Radio Network on-line, even with a 30-second delay to avoid having to listen to ESPN's knuckleheads. In between live (Alabama) events, I never go to ESPN. Ever.The folks who made that survey were criticized for only using one market.
