Marchand doesn’t think so:
Well even if he doesn't run, he's clearly all in on leaning into the political space. This new contract just confirms it for sure.
I'm sure ESPN isn't sweating the deal as he'll be a company man and give up bread when asked like he's admitted to many times previously.
Never understood why he never said no considering the leverage has compared to his fellow peers.

IIRC SAS only brought up taking a paycut once and that was during the layoff shyt because of covid (Disney took massive loss on parks).
He probably didnt say no for 2 reasons. 1. He would make up that money by asking for more money on the reup. 2. Company man shyt. Apparently he wasnt the only one that took a paycut.
Seems the paycut was only for 3 months too, it wasnt a permanent decrease. Another thing is all the top espn execs already took a 20-30% paycut, so that probably made it an easier pill to swallow for the bigger talent.

He's mentioned before about his salary that was floating around for years now as not being due whether that being due to paycuts or not wanting to confirm it as being true.
