Always loved this commercial.

What was wrong with Clayton? I liked the guy.

John Clayton has been fired at ESPN. I suspect NFL Network might pick him up asap.

Here's to the greatest commercial ever made:

One of his tweets said he was keeping the pony tail lol.

Worthless BSPN reporter. They are having a "Saturday Nite Massacre" over there and it can't happen fast enough.
Maybe they will just sell out or close the doors. Good riddance.

I must admit that I've enjoyed many of ESPN's commercials. Here's my favorite:

Clayton should phone home. What's keeping him from returning to the Andromeda galaxy now?

LOL. What?

He was a pretty good reporter. Certainly someone I would trust over some of the junk that remains at ESPN. Werder and Clayton were two of their better insiders.

Man they used to make great commercials lol. ESPN and other cable channels (Fox News) are tanking big time.

Me too! They are like Geico of the sports world, with regard to their commercials.

Lashing out is a common coping method. We can tell you care and are hurt. We're here for support.

I thought Beaker was one of the better guys they had on that network. He kept things on the straight and narrow for the most part, not trying to get too opinionated.

 

[Hailmary]

Media's gotten very content specific in the past decade and a half. With the emergence of channels like the NFL, mlb, nba and nhl networks (along with the SEC, BTN, YES, FS1, Twitter and all the team specific web content available these days) it's no wonder ESPN is struggling. I don't feel they've evolved much during that time either and all the subscription fees they're charging they're customers are rubbing them in the wrong way as well, imo.
They are bleeding money for sure, question is, are all the recent layoffs a sign that they are a dying network or are they just rebranding? If it's the latter, it may already be too late. JMO....

Much appreciate the concern and caring. Never watch him or BSPN so actually I'm doing pretty well for an old guy. Will be doing
better when ESPN the channel is off the air.

More and more people losing jobs..

[Zordon]

Relax. Guy talks about SPORTS and has a family to feed.

There are jerks at ESPN, I highly doubt John Clayton is one of them.

lol, yea, he sounds pretty broke up over it huh
