Well, they're giving him a little respect by letting him finish out his contract which ends this summer.

All of them were white. Espn is basicallyBET or UPN now. Your eyes will melt if you flip to that channel. The culture will be too much for you.

I'd bet it's more like they don't want to pay whatever the buyout would be if they terminated him.
