Ryen Russillo is leaving ESPN after 14 years to join The Ringer

[feelosofer]

His NBA podcast back in the day was really good but now he's kinda just a placeholder at ESPN.

 

[#1 pick]

ESPN bench too many talents. Real Madrid ass nikkas

I thought they fired him because he got fukked up and ran up in a strangers house and passed out on there couch.

Still don't know what this goofs purpose is...

Another of SVP's boy and the "cool dad/uncle looking guy" who gambles.

This is the guy I straight up forgot all about. I liked him and Jemele on Numbers Never Lie, His & Hers and the podcast. After the way they were done dirty on SC, I wanna see breh go somewhere else and do well.

Haven't really watched the channel beyond 30/30s in forever, so not sure when he's been on TV. Last time I'd heard him was on a Sunday afternoon show called "On the Mic", which I guess features him and another guy named Michael (Eaves, IIRC). That was some months ago, though.

Tuned in the next couple of Sundays hoping to hear him again, but he was away...Elle someone or other (keep wanting to say Varner, but I know that's not it ) was filling in.

What has he even been doing since handing his show to Cain? A podcast? Is that enough to warrant anyone caring about his “formal” departure.

Speaking of talent lost in espn limbo, when my nikka Michael Smith gonna get free? Dude makes an occasional appearance on LeBatard show and then disappears

His podcast is pretty big. Plus he's been sitting time alreadh doing ri ger podcasts, ans he's trying to write in Hollywood

Dude is on Bill Simmons podcast like every week
He mentions that he got a crib in Manhattan Beach every time I hear him on something
nikkas just out here getting rich for no reason at all

What does Katie Nolan even do?

Collect a check to make 30 sec social media videos. I mean her work has to be unfulfilling but lord knows she’s getting paid to be basically useless while also getting first class treatment from the company

There's a lot of money in building your persona as "Boston sports guy". Best sports town in the country.

where is michael smith?

Seems like he's getting paid to stay away at this point. He's probably under contract and ESPN has him shelved, tough situation because he's probably still banking but his name is fading and likely dropping in value for his next gig

Mike's dad lives next door to my cousin's dad. One day earlier in the year his dad kept insisting my cuz come over and meet his son (my cuz didn't know who the son was) so finally one day he went over and it was Mike lol. Said he was cool.

Yeah. There's really nothing else to the story other than Mike just be chilling with his dad in New Orleans these days lol
