Holy cow! It's amazing how they memorialize their trade. I mean I get it...you covered a sport for 20 years or whatever. You spoke on behalf of a network, you reported...you didn't get the Nobel peace prize. Do you think the fans of the Giants or any other team besides Cowboys knew who he was?

Did he anger the corporate overlords at ESPN ? Or is he just stepping down?
There is a story that ESPN is taking over NFLN programming. That is supposedly why there are layoffs on both ends. NFLN dropped all programming except for like two shows and occasionally an introspective like timeline or football life, but overwhelmingly is replaying old games.

Cable news networks are dying a slow death. Most people are getting their news from free online sources and don't even watch the old networks. Especially the younger demographics. Some of these guys make big $$ and the revenue streams are drying up. Simple as that really.

Terrible. Hope it's not true.
