Looking at the tweets of some of the people laid off and so many read the same. A variation of "Thanks ESPN for helping me live the dream." It's almost as if that was part of their buyout clause or something.


I was thinking the same thing. You would expect at least one person who lost their job abruptly to be a little pissed off.

most likely just don't want to burn any bridges. not a good look to potential employers if you publicly nuke your previous job.

I get that some people might want to make themselves attractive to potential employers and slamming your former employer isn't the best way to do that, but one would think that out of 100 or so talking heads, one would be vocal about their displeasure. It looked like Kannell was about to go off but then he dialed it back. I know that if I lost my job of 15 years while someone like Heather Dinnich was kept on, the world would know how pissed I was.
