Well, that wouldn't be retiring then, would it?
LIAR!
Cowherd got 6 mil, so it is not unexpected they would throw some coin at him. Fox is really trying to expand their brand. They even were taking shots at Sportscenter, but Fox Sports Live got monkey stomped.Saw that he is going to be making 5 mill per at Fox. Holy shit.
At $5M per I would bet he doesn't really GAS, especially since he's in his mid-60s. At that point, take the money and run.Bayless will never get another audience as big as ESPNs. Although I know quite a few long time staff members left to pursue other opportunities.
You familiar with Bayless? He is pretty much an attention whore.At $5M per I would bet he doesn't really GAS, especially since he's in his mid-60s. At that point, take the money and run.
Like I said. ESPN is losing money. They can't afford these big name guysWow...Mike Tirico is leaving too.
I am. Can't stand him, but he's still getting paid. When I'm in my mid-60s, I would take that deal all day long.You familiar with Bayless? He is pretty much an attention whore.
They can afford them, they just don't want to.Like I said. ESPN is losing money. They can't afford these big name guys
FOX is awful and has been dating all the way back to the early 2000's with The Best Damn Sports Show.Does anybody watch a Fox sport show regularly.
I can never spend more than 5 minutes on anything it's just too Bro'd up.
You think Mike Tirico is leaving because ESPN is afraid of his personality overshadowing the brand?They can afford them, they just don't want to.
ESPN is all about ensuring that no personality is bigger than the brand. That is why Dan Patrick left, Bill Simmons is gone, and now Bayless and Tirico are leaving too.
Given how popular they are and how many different aspects they cover, I'm surprised that Jeremy Schapp and Bob Levy are still there.
My guess is that Stephen A. Smith will leave eventually too. He's annoying as shit and he's awful, but he is popular and he may start to draw too much attention which will eventually have him on the outs with ESPN.
Yep, that's pretty much what it comes down to. They've had to lay off tons of people over the last few years.Like I said. ESPN is losing money. They can't afford these big name guys
