Say Goodbye to those ESPN Personalities Ya'll Love So Much: Official ESPN Layoffs Thread

seems more like they're consolidating talent but working them across more things. i see Elle Duncan on highly questionable, ATH and SC, Mina Kimes is podcasting, on NFL Live, HQ, and ATH, they got people like max and greenberg doing double time with radio and tv.

It’s cheaper to do it that way really. Cut talent and spread the job duties amongst everyone else.

Golic is on the chopping block next and the only reason he’s still around is because they found the job for him calling college football. He wants to do morning radio again and he’s going to have to take a huge if he stays, so he likely will end up going elsewhere.

They need to get rid of Bomani already, actually is he even doing anything right now?

He’s one of the people that I was referring to that really doesn’t have a significant role right now and could potentially be cut. Yeah he’s appearing on ATH, HQ, and other shows, but so is everyone else.

Honestly I’d get rid of Katie Nolan as well as they overpaid for her and haven’t gotten their ROE. Part of that is because they had no plan or how to use her the way FOX did.

He’s LGBT?

Not officially

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Not officially

I was about to say

I know he mentioned once the TEJ that he was engaged, but other than that he seems to keep his personal life private.

What's the problem with Dominique mybaby? Dude funny and goes hard at people, he knows his shyt being a union nikka and all. Him and Ryan are usually funny together and they give good information on and off the field.



Both of them nikkas are good with basketball topics too



Vice versa no NBA players ever cover NFL topics on the morning shows so I give them both props for that also

They need to put Foxworth and Bomani on a show together

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

Foxworth is on NBC Sports I thought?

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Put them together on a podcast. Why not

Actually they should do that with a lot of people as it would give them something to do. You can do it on the cheap and rake in the profits.

ESPN expected to announce layoffs this week: Sources

ESPN is expected to announce layoffs this week, possibly as soon as Thursday, sources tell The Athletic's Richard Deitsch. Remote production is expected to be hit significantly while some of the cost savings will come from talent contracts not being renewed. ESPN has approximately 6,000 employees globally, including 4,000 working at its headquarters in Bristol, Conn. A network spokesperson declined comment to The Athletic on Wednesday morning.

Not a good look seeing as they are about to offer $1 billion+ for SNF and likely higher in an attempt to outbid NBC. With that being said, If you haven't received a contract extension yet, then it's more than likely an end of your tenure at ESPN (Golic Sr.).
