People like Pablo Torre have little name recognition in the scheme of things compared to some of those let go, and would rather push a political agenda than talk sports, and is falling up because he is in line with what ESPN wants (liberal minority).

It is what it is, but to pretend that ESPN isn't pushing an agenda with their firings is naive.


A) LeBatard berates ESPN more than any personality they have.

B) I despise Pablo Torre, passionately

C) Partisan political channels are one of the few that have seen stable or increased viewership in the past few years. I hate it, but it draws viewers on to the side of the aisle where they fall. I wish it would go away, but it won't.

ESPN has the right to run their company how the see fit.

But it is clear to me they are moving towards pandering towards a certain demographic, and certain political view


I'd love to see their analysis on how this will generate increased revenue and sales for them.

Seriously somebody should be doing a live feed on FS-1 with "the pick is in" sounder from the ESPN NFL Draft coverage announcing each name

Would be better TV than the garbage ESPN is apparently dedicated to. Hoping Rusillo and SVP both bolt, then ESPN can literally go away in an explosion

As scripted as it seems, Finebaum back in the early 2000's is ten times better than Finebaum today. When he was local and it was him switching sides based on who was on top. He's a master troll and I still can't believe he's gotten as far as he has.

I honestly don't get why they hired him. He's useless to the show. Knows nothing about sports outside of Pelicans and LSU Football. And his "takes" on them are god awful.

As much as I enjoy Adnan, him solo is pretty annoying right now. It's gotta suck doing a show by yourself and basically laughing at your own jokes and stories.

ESPN gave me the light and it's time to leave stage. Sincere gratitude to those who were so kind and supportive. Sorry for the mess I made.
