ESPN is just gonna be Scott Van Pelt hanging out in a broom closet all day.

I can see them pushing Rachel Nichols up to this "bigger" chair, leaving the hosting of her NBA show to...Sarah Spain or Kate Fagan (in the SJWs' dream scenario?)

:lol:

He'll probably get a huge contract with Fox Sports and proceed to do as much for them as Cowherd and Whitlock have. May as well cash in while he can though. This also makes ESPN's giant contract for Stephen A Smith last year look pretty silly since he's worth nowhere near what he's being paid on his own or paired with anyone besides Bayless.

So Fox Sports is hoping to make their channel as unwatchable as possible? I mean, I guess everyone in that business will try to emulate ESPN, but yeesh.

Now sounds like you can add Brad Nessler to CBS, to eventually replace Verne Lundquist when he retires.

Screamin A Smith is 3 times the annoyance as skip.

FS1 will be lucky to still be on the air in a couple of years. Their ratings are in the toilet and they aren't much better than they were when they were the speed channel.
