John Clayton out at ESPN


Recommended Posts

I don't even have have cable anymore. Nothing. I'm thinking about getting an antenna for local sh!t, maybe some MYTV. Is that still a thing? 

Will ESPN be going back to 8hrs on, 16hrs repeat? man....The NBA might have to go to a best of 9 games....

espn sucks and has for a long time. he was one of the few redeeming commodities.

they got into too many political/social discussions in addition to just showing too much bias towards certain organizations.

it sucks that clayton lost his job like so many other good reporters they cut loose, but hopefully they will go somewhere that actually focuses on just good honest sports talk with no desire to get into social/political conversations.

sports should be an escape from all the turmoil in the world, not just another voice in the noise.

This (espn layoffs in general) is what happens when you let politics in to a sports channel. I'm glad they are having issues after pushing their political views and firing people because of their opposing political views.

I don't watch ESPN unless there is an actual game on anyway. The rest of it is pure garbage.

This. I have no idea why anyone would watch anything on ESPN other than live sports. Their programming consists almost entirely of shows where shameless idiots yell at each other. It's kinda like the Huddle, only televised.

    • Yes. Big surprise that the man that couldn't even operate a pizza joint even with his name value in Charlotte can't run an NFL front office. Can't get over his 2023 and 2024 draft classes. Taking XL, Brooks, Wallace takes a special skill of incompetence. Can't get over his plan at MLB. Was apart of the Fitterer team and their comedy of errors. We need fresh ideas in the building next year not only at GM, but in our scouting department. 
    • Alabama yes. In general the ‘SEC success guarantees NFL success’ fallacy was really tough to overcome too. You still have to look at the player and extrapolate what their college performance would look like against a team full of NFL vets.    I think 62 SEC players were drafted in 2023. But there were over 1600 players rostered on SEC a teams. You might even  face an SEC defense that had no one drafted. Like Vanderbilt had no one taken in 2025.  So you just can’t blindly hold that hey he was great in the SEC he is a lock. Damn, especially with a weak armed little guy with bad throwing mechanics,     
    • The question was regarding Bryce only play well when the game doesn't matter and us out of reach. Bryce did not have a great 4th quarter but he had a great 1st half.  Started the game 4 of 5 for 45 yards and a passing TD. He made a lot of great plays in the drive where we scored our 2nd TD which was a short run by Chuba.  He also had a great run to pick up a first when the pocket collapsed around him.  Great pocket awareness and plenty fast and athletic enough. The point being he played very well at a time where the game was not out of reach or garbage time. That was my point and those games listed are the evidence that prove that point.
