Because he called Holly Rowe sweetheart. And since ESPN is filled with men who love to show their junk to women and whatnot they're extremely scared of any sexism or sexual harassment so they went way overboard.

What they should have done is get rid of that stinking cow on the sidelines and replace her with a bull who knows what the hell he's talking about, so Ron can call him any damned thing he pleases and no one will get his/her panties in a bunch and we can all enjoy some damned football!!!

Just saw this! Excellent. RF has always been one of my favorites. He does an excellent broadcast, especially when we win.

Thanks for posting this.

I'll also look forward to hearing the DVR.

ESPN doesn't get it.

Franklin and Herbstreit could own a game.

Blackledge would be great, too.

I just don't need his food critique squeezed into a broadcast at the most inopportune time.

Besides, Herbstreit is presently slobbing the SEC's knob, until further notice.

His now paired with Ed Something or Another. He and Mike Gottfried were always FTW and for years, I watched LSU away games and thanked God that we had them.

Hard to believe that just over 20 years ago, he was starting off on ESPN alongside that idiot Kevin Kiley (who started off with Jim Kelly).

Adrian Karsten was the man. I am sorry he could not find a way out of his misery. I wish he would have turned to the Lord. I miss him. Adrian will be looking down on Tiger Stadium this Saturday.
