I'd gladly tolerate the 4 minute commercial breaks for such an awesome upgrade!

Franklin was reprimanded after a complaint was made about his behavior toward Edwards at a meeting. "Why don't you leave this to the boys, sweet baby?" Franklin allegedly said. When Edwards objected to the derogatory language, Franklin responded, "okay then, [expletive]."

that would be an amazing team
they'd make the games more enjoyable to watch and be the best broadcast tandem on tv. but they wouldn't leave me in a state of wonder.

For my money, it didn't get any better than Ron franklin, mark gottfried and Adrian karstein. I know gottfried isn't doing games anymore and karsten committed suicide.

So how many times has a woman at ESPN gotten a male employee fired? Seems to happen a couple times a year now.

Let us be real chauvinistic. Tell ESPN the only women we want on the sidelines are cheerleaders.

The women didn't get the man fired. The mans actions got him fired.

Probably so but when Pam Ward gets promoted to the primetime booth as pbp announcer I would imagine we'll all wish ole Ron with his salty tongue was still around.
