WHACK EVERYONE except John Saunders on Sports Reporters to include those little fairies Lupica and Israel Gutierrez along with Bob Ryan, Jemele Hill, and everyone else.


That show used to be good when Dick Schapp was alive and now it sucks.


Same with Gameday Final ... I mean, seriously ... Danny Kanell and Joey Galloway are fricking horrible. I want that show to not suck ... but, it does now ... BAD.


ESPN is absolute dog shite now.

Too bad - I'd love to see Bomani get booted. He's made me quit listening on my evening commute. Wish they'd move Russillo to the late slot.

I know y'all are mostly talking about tv folks, but I don't understand the Bomani (sp?) Jones "The Right Time" on ESPN the radio. Is it supposed to appeal to a certain demographic and I am just missing it? Dude talks about shoes more than sports...and even his sports talk is meh. And its on, at least where I am, at 5 o'clock drive home time...find something better please! I'd rather listen to Lebotard and Kannell over him.

They need to learn a lesson from hbo, and be ready to sell subscriptions to individual consumers. ESPN and sports are a huge reason cable isn't dead yet. Other than live sports, everything else I can stream for a low cost. Even with sling tv, they still bundle bull shite networks that I don't want to pay for


What services do you use to stream individual channels?

Jemele Hill, please


As much as I'd love to see that hack go, she won't because her pieces are controversial. Controversy = higher ratings.

Paid trolls are in high demand.

ESPN has said farewell to several big name, high cost stars this year, including Keith Olbermann and Bill Simmons. Although there were many factors at play, price was one of them.


I guess these two were already gone, I just don't pay that much attention to ESPN these days..

Here's the list I would love to see go
1. Bromani Jones: Race Baiter
2. Jamele Hill: Race Baiter
3. Danny Kannell: Gump Baiter
4. Steven A. Smith: Race Baiter

I did hate the Dan Lebatard show but it's actually starting to grow on me.

Priceless coming from a Gump, whose team is in a conference that has its own network owned by ABC. You guys get enough homerisms to never have to play a game on the field ever again. It's Bama every week. They'll win big every week. According to all of those bobbleheads on the SEC network

ESPN has become a shitty drama laden network that shows a few good sporting events. That network is the equivalent of internet click bait.

Yep, most of the "hated" ESPN personalities are the equivalent of heels in wrestling. They're annoying and idiotic on purpose.

ESPN desperately needs to create a reason for people to watch their shitty shows when actual sports aren't on and they've basically resorted to trolling to get attention.
