ETA: Might have been a joke. But why'd he delete the tweet if it was a joke?



Russillo replied asking him to check his direct messages.

Gordy has sense deleted the tweet.

So they just decided to throw Finebaum on the air without discussing this with management?

ETA: I call bullshite.

Maybe they were fired for not clearing with the ESPN higher-ups?

Management at the ESPN station in Lafayette put that Finebaum bore on the air last month to replace SVP. Complaints about from what I understand.

All of Finebaum's callers for a whole show collectively might add up to a full set of teeth.

This is interesting. Could be sarcasm coming from Gordy after a pompous Russillo tweet earlier in the day apologizing to Baton Rouge listeners that his show would be covered up by Finebaum today.

Could be legit though, idk

My point exactly. I could get it if he had no clue, but to think that he knew about it and then fired people to blame them is kinda fricked up. Hopefully he just told RR he fired them to make him happy.

I think it was a joke. Ryen was joking about being bumped earlier in the day.

Can't blame Russillo for that... the SVP & Russillo show is the best thing ESPN has going for them.

Yeah, makes me wonder what that DM from Russillo to Gordy said. Some major shite talking could be going down.
