It must be an all around ESPN thing. The ESPN radio here in Dallas,all they do is bash him all day long. It was good schtick at first but now they are beating a dead horse. Now I don't even listen to them anymore,because all they do is bash the Cowboys,or they bash TO. :rolleyes:

The busiest day in the history of ESPN. com as far as traffic goes was this past Wednesday. The highest ratings ever for ESPNews was that same day. Now, why do you think they'd be all over his jock?


And don't believe for a second that anything that comes out of the mouth of anyone on ESPN is their true thoughts on the matter. Every employee has a particular role to play and are told what side of an issue they are to be on.

Do you really think that everyone believes that the current MNF crew is the greatest ever assembled? I doubt anyone would say so in private but a cross word publicly and they'd be facing a suspension or getting lower level assignments for a while.

ESPN may say that Harold Reynolds was let go for sexual harrassment but the real reason was that he wouldn't toe the line on bashing Alex Rodriquez earlier this year.

That is true though. There have been several people who have said that Harold gets himself in trouble all the time by hitting on girls at the workplace. It's not like ESPN made that up out of the blue. Now, was it true when they said it? Eh, probably not. I believe the A-Rod deal when all they were doing was throwing him under the bus, and Harold didn't want anything to do with it. But truth be told, he has been warned multiple times in regards to sexual harassment.

I realize that Reynolds is hardly a saint, but a wandering eye and roaming hands seem to be a prerequisite for promotion in Bristol for years.

Toe the line, we see nothing.....

Well considering most of the media expected him not to play... Yea.. he exceeded expectations... not only did he play will, but he was a huge factor.

And ESPN keeps bashing it. I ask why? First I would like to know the question that was asked because I have a feeling that it was taking out of context.

Its like they don't get enough of bashing this guy. The one guy was saying how TO always says me and I and not we.

But earlier in the interview he was saying how the team was doing great.

I just don't get it.

Because it gets a reaction like this. Thats all. ESPN knows when they mutter TO something, people listen.
