Raziel Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) That's a name I haven't heard in a while (I used to listen to his show when it was Opie and Anthony-lite before I grew out of that, when it was syndicated). I'm not shocked in the least that's what he ended up getting fired for. Edited July 31, 2023 by Raziel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Mark Jackson is gone from ESPN. Doc Rivers and Doris Burke will be joining Mike Breen as the NBA Finals booth. ESPN is also going to let Bomani Jones go when his contract ends this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I liked Doc a lot during his brief stint calling games, including the finals, after Orlando fired him. Granted, some of that is probably tied up in that it was the year the Pistons destroyed the Lakers so maybe I would've liked almost anybody calling that finals. But I remember him being good at it. But that's his only experience ever calling games and it was twenty years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 God I love Bomani Jones but he hasn't done a lot at ESPN for a bit now and if this is the price that must be paid to be rid of Mark Jackson then so be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 There is a lot to unpack with this story including a random appearance of Roy Firestone https://awfulannouncing.com/mlb/kevin-brown-baltimore-orioles-masn-suspension.html (Basically the report is he is suspended because he read a graphic on air noting how shitty the Os had been previously against the Rays - the story has the clip.)

For the faintest of moments I thought that was the actual name of the show, then I was disappointed that it wasn't the name of the show, then I was disappointed in myself for falling for your BLATANT AND OBVIOUS TRICKERY, SIR.

hammerva Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 So Penn Entertainment is out of the Barstool game because now they are in the ESPN game and they don't need to deal with those assholes anymore. So Barstool has what it really wants and that is full control, ESPN probably has what they want and getting into the physical gambling game (maybe the return of the ESPN Zone ) and Penn got a whole lot of shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
