Nolan is no longer doing MLB on Apple. She’s bounced around like any journeyman pro sports player because people have found out she has no talent other than being attractive.

Wasn't it Bill Simmons pimping her hard?

What's the story behind that?

I don’t know if Kimes is any good. I’d have to watch ESPN’s panel shows and studio programming to find out. frick that.

Nolan isn't good at live TV.

Mina Kimes breaks things down analytically. Katie Nolan is more of a fun TV personality.

She’s been doing a lot of stuff with Just Women’s Sports recently but I don’t know if that’s a full time gig

Anyone remember the chick on NFL Network who retired? It was like 5+ years ago. I can't remember her name. But I remember her nickname being "the body" or something like that

They put her on Dan Lebatard’s Highly Questionable and he was a complete jackass to her. He let it be known she was only there bc the execs made him put her on.

ESPN gets blamed for not knowing what to do with her, but that's as much her fault, if not more.

For someone who was supposed to bring a big online presence, her show was only 30 minutes, once a week. How do you generate content from that? Her podcast was twice a week and longer, but just as useless.

This is an actual podcast summary from right before she was let go...
quote:

Katie and the Union give advice for substitute teachers. Travis found an apartment, Christina is dog sitting and Katie went to AEW (21:15). Is Ben Simmons cool (39:14)? Is Aaron Rodgers growing his hair out for a Halloween costume (1:07:18)? Gronk doesn't watch film (1:17:00). The Pope has some haters within the Vatican (1:27:20). Lastly, if you started a team what would your mascot be (1:33:45)?

Hard-hitting stuff there. Most of the other summaries are embarrassing as well.

Nice.

And to whoever saying Kay Adams is plastic/not hot, appreciate you showing us how stupid you are.

Mina's very intelligent, very prepared pretty much all the time. She has the statistical point of view down pat.

Kinda remember Jason Whitlock going after ESPN and hiring Maria Taylor. Also went after Katie Nolan.

Sounds like she never recovered from that

I liked Ashley but she was an anchor, not an analyst or panelist, so she wouldn't be competing with Mina or Nolan.

I was surprised that they let go of Ashley given how young she is and how much she improved, but she has a bright future ahead of her no doubt.

She signed a deal with Fan Duel to have her own morning show she’s 10xs more talented than Nolan

I have no idea who Katie Nolan is, but this is quite the accomplishment (from her Wiki):

Nolan is also the former Guinness World Record holder for most donuts stacked in a tower while blindfolded (seven), doing so on the November 7, 2018 episode of Always Late.
