He was ok, but business is business and the folks over at ESPN have been bleeding the last few years and have been letting go a lot of their popular or at least steady personalities. ESPN is not the same ESPN @taskmaster4450le and I grew up watching that's for sure.

The curious thing Jimmy is that about ESPN, it's not just there, there was also a period of employee cuts here.
You're right, the station isn't what it used to be.
It is happening in the broadcast world.
It's a path of no return. Traditional TV as we know it before will no longer have its monopoly.
We need shorts going so we can accumulate some time on Leo.
I already tried to bring some shorts. I don't know if it's working.
But I will try again.
No ESPN went into the toilet.
What gets overlooked is the breakup of the monopoly they have on #sports conversation. There was talk radio which is still around. But not only did they have FoxSports enter but also some YouTube and others who pulled eyeballs.
I know they struck a deal but think of what McAfee did in pulling attention. There are others who are garnering hours per day of viewing.
