Speculation that Bretos could be gone? Either that or he is referring to just seeing all these people cut.

So 68% of ESPN layoffs were white males

I would say about 50% of espn is white male


So contrary to what slackster wants you to believe, it was a disproportionate layoff


Based on what?

ESPN represents a huge chunk of those numbers as newspaper staffs have been eviscerated. You're pulling 50% white males out of your arse. You're better than that.

Russillo' first comments on the layoffs, specifically Danny. Kept is classy

ESPN's most watched daily programs

SC6
PTI
ATH
First Take
Highly Questionable

So yes.

I am also fully aware that some of those shows get their viewership with little to do with the people on the show (HQ and First Take are exceptions)
