They also probably realize ESPN is still the biggest name in town

Trashing ESPN now would probably make it difficult to get re-hired in 4-5 years.

I mean, look at Fox News -- other than the people who filed lawsuits (hoping to secure seven-figure payouts), very few people have bad-mouthed Fox on the way out.

Doc Jerry will land at Fox, if he hasn't already. ** -- UEMcGill 04/27/2017 07:29AM

Dottie to CBS or NBC on Thursday. ABC/ESPN sucks for golf anyway -- TheNuke 04/26/2017 11:46PM

Watching ESPN destroy itself has been enjoyable. Network jumped the shark -- ModerateHokie 04/26/2017 10:35PM

This time of year all I watch is PTI and Around the Horn.. no SC ** -- VTMojo 04/27/2017 08:24AM

Those are the types of shows that ruined ESPN. Became all talk/hype ** -- ModerateHokie 04/27/2017 9:53PM

It's not just ESPN. This is just the first sign of the bubble popping. -- UEMcGill 04/27/2017 07:34AM

Seems like all/most of them are taking the high road -- Tombo 04/26/2017 10:20PM

They were all overpaid talking heads. They ate the gravy for a long time ** -- TheNuke 04/26/2017 11:47PM

I'd say most of those folk took a severance to be nice. ** -- reestuart 04/26/2017 11:15PM

In todays world and the commentary that comes with it -- Tombo 04/26/2017 11:55PM

Chris Fallica should go too ** -- MEHOKIE 04/26/2017 7:23PM

Disagree ** -- MAHokie69 04/26/2017 7:56PM

John Skipper should have been the first to go -- FlyFishingHokie 04/26/2017 6:53PM

My take on ESPN people in general: I. Don't. Care. -- CPRVHokie 04/26/2017 6:48PM

Old guy perspective: They have too much opinion from media folks for me. -- Bburg Native 04/26/2017 6:43PM

Yep. They just can't help giving their $0.02. Nobody wants that. ** -- reestuart 04/26/2017 11:13PM

I agree. I don't watch sports to engage in political discussion. -- MP4VT2004 04/26/2017 8:33PM

That's why I don't go to espn.com. I got sick of Trump/Clinton -- HokieGator 04/26/2017 9:02PM

Like Pepper and (legal) Cossack?** -- 48zip 04/26/2017 6:48PM

I really liked Pepper. Cossack was at least a real expert. ** -- Bburg Native 04/26/2017 8:36PM

I wanna know who is going to take over the bucket of chicken challenge? ** -- Guy LeDouche 04/26/2017 6:29PM

Gordon Solie ? ** -- chumley 04/26/2017 6:27PM

"There's no place for that in professional wrestling". Gordon was the bomb ** -- Coach McGuirk 04/26/2017 8:57PM

So they had a New Orleans Pelicans reporter -- Roanokie 04/26/2017 6:20PM

Eh...they culled some regular on air talent too -Danny Kannel comes to mind -- JoesterVT 04/26/2017 6:24PM
