If it's for cause, I'm sure the cause will get leaked sooner or later. He didn't seem like the kind of cat to do anything wild behind the scenes, just sort of a goofball. You never know though
It seems that Sam Ponder has gotten fired along with them. Rather weird as they’re using the term fired instead of being letting go.

In Ponder’s case, she got lucky she didn’t get fired years ago when she made those tweets about transgender athletes and went into hiding.

He overdid it and it wore thin, he was just too extra and fed into the hype and online issues a bit too much. All that clout chasing and buffoonery for what?
What did he do? Idfw CFB like I used to but I never heard any complaints

i liked breh commentating on games.
yeah he would do a little too much on social media but he would bring a lot of fun to espn broadcasts
the moment about leaving when his wife went into labor
jumping into the water in washington, while in jacksonville
racing the bird in seattle
breh would have fun in his own way

Was inevitable he wasn't coming back when they replaced him with Jason Kelce on Countdown
yea but he does color commentary for CFB games, if they remove him from NFL Countdown he still has a whole other job. something else gotta be at play because ESPN should have already handed out their game assignments, 2 weeks before the season starts is wild
