if this is cost cutting, you fire the one that is costing you more to keep employed

Actually the calculation is revenue minus expenses. The lower number gets cut

That bean shaped head Keyshawn is so clueless about sports it makes you wonder if he even watches the games.

Clemson doesn't care about basketball....as evidenced by Brown-L getting 14 years.

Looks like it.

ESPN announced last month it hired former NFL punter Pat McAfee, host of “The Pat McAfee Show.” The New York Post reported ESPN is paying McAfee around $85 million over five years. Still, ESPN’s McAfee comes with a ready-made show, which the network believes will be profitable from day one.

They must consider him a moneymaker for the company if they are willing to pay that much when others are being fired.

Was watching ESPN Sports Center last night and the top 3 lead stories was WNBA. This is what happens when you have agenda driven leadership.

I am surprised they are firing Suzy Kolber, she has been there a long time which i guess means she had a large salary and must go.

Funny…..when they’re shilling propaganda for the SEC, they’re EXPERTS.

When they’re getting fired for not shilling propaganda well enough for the SEC, they’re PERSONALITIES.

Re: Pollack will end up on SEC Network.***


Jun 30, 2023, 5:33 PM

I actually like what I’ve seen of Pollack.

When I watch ESECPN (because Clemson is on) it is always crystal clear to me that I am NOT their target audience. I think their business plan is stupid.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Pollack pretty much made one "Sportscenter" play

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.

Get rid of race warriors and more people would watch.


Jun 30, 2023, 6:07 PM

Stephen A - don’t like him, but was ok when simply sports. Cut his massive salary.
So many others constantly crying about race.
Kendrick Perkins - race baiter.
Get back to sports.

Agreed. I really like Pollack too. Hope he turns up at Fox, NBC or CBS even though he is an SEC guy. Looks like they would have found a place for him at SECN.
