Beadle is the classic "modern woman" and she is fricking miserable. You can tell she hates life and wishes she had 3 kids and a loving husband

ESPN studio shows, especially this one, are brutal to watch and listen. Zero direction, no respect for each other's air time. It's pathetic they roll that out on a national broadcast network for a sports championship in this country.



They try really hard to copy the TNT crew and it’s a disaster

Please let this change happen. Paul Pierce is unbearable. I don't have as big a problem with Beadle and Billups, but this crew is nowhere near as entertaining or knowledgeable as the TNT crew was. I always enjoyed the basketball commentary on TNT and watching Shaq/Charles go at one another, while the ESPN crew provides nothing remotely as entertaining as Shaq/Charles.

I guess that means Rose is the only one not fricking Beadle


MY favorite from her, is during that ESPN event, where she was trying to frick several football players and got caught on a hot mic, asking Rodgers for some dick.

I follow some one who's big into nba, and retweets her, and while she was trying to get dick, her Boyfriend was at home watching her dogs. LOL

New York Post confirming it:

Michelle Beadle is off ‘NBA Countdown’ and out of jobs at ESPN



quote:

Michelle Beadle’s dramatic fall at ESPN has continued: She is being dropped from “NBA Countdown,” sources confirmed to The Post.

This is the second high-profile job Beadle has lost in the past 12 months. Almost a year ago to the date, Beadle was taken off ESPN’s morning show, “Get Up!”


quote:

She is still making $5 million per year, but there is no telling what she will do next.


quote:

On Friday, The Athletic tweeted that Rachel Nichols and Maria Taylor will share the “Countdown” hosting duties.



quote:

Sources told The Post that Billups is leaving “Countdown” to be a TV game analyst for the Los Angeles Clippers. Billups will continue at ESPN, too, but he will shift to games. Pierce’s role on Countdown is still unsettled.


quote:

As The Post has previously reported, Jay Williams and Richard Jefferson are prime candidates to land on “Countdown.”

Rachel Nichols is tough to look at. Awful.

more than Beadle?? c'mon man... neither of them are spring chickens, and i'm praying my girl Maria gets more airtime than Nichols, but saying Nichols is tough to look at while Beadle is the person she's replacing is a non-starter...

Give me Nichols all day.

Maria Taylor is awesome but I don’t think she’s all that great at hosting anything. She seems to know JUST enough about the sport she’s working with to get by. She’s all about generic shite and cliche takes and storylines.

Nichols could shoot the shite with anyone on every aspect of the NBA. And she really cares about it. She’d produce a much better show and be up on all the minute by minute ridiculous storylines that we all love.
