ESPN is in financial trouble. Its ratings are a teeny tiny fraction of what they were 25 years ago.

For one thing people are cutting the cable buying streaming packages. This does not help ESPN

That guy has been stealing money for years. I don't get the hype.

I don't mind him, but honestly I haven't watched him in some time. Boggles my mind he can command that much. But I guess he is a huge draw for ESPN.

from what I understand, Pat has his own production company. So espn is paying his company. Pat has to foot all the production costs (employees, etc). So pat isn’t getting a 60M salary.

Makes more sense. Still a nice bump but forgot he's not directly under ESPN production wise

.......and not many tears will be shed.

This is the same organization that hired and put up with Aunt Jemella's b.s.

This is the same organization that keeps Booger McFarland on the payroll.

They've got more dung to be extruded before they pay Pat any less.

Btw, not a fan of Pats but he draws big and loyal viewership.

Just Switzerland on him. No love nor dislike
