I can't be the only person that is freaked out by Rachel Nichols's mouth every time she used to say "I'm Rachel Nichols, ESPAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN."


From the first time I saw her on ESPN saying those words, I thought it was weird. At the same time, you can't ignore it. It's like you are waiting for it when she's doing her reporting.

They need to stop fricking around, and just go all black, all the time. Stop pretending. Just go for it.

Taylor was good in her College role. She didn’t earn that NBA job. What’s sad is we are subjected to Taylor/Nichols vs. TNT’s Ernie Johnson. World Wide leader my arse!

If anyone is going to bitch about anything related to ESPN… surely Maria Taylor doesn’t make page 1. There is a ton of suckage at ESPN that is way more worthy of criticism than her.

ESPN just sucks in general. They forgot what made them.

The only black talent on that network that I’m down with is Freddie Coleman and Michael Wilbon.

It goes higher than that. It's a Disney thing.

but I actually like Maria Taylor. I liked her when she started off on the SEC Network, then went to Game Day and on...


The problem with Maria Taylor is that she's "good but not great".

would imagine off camera most would defend Nichols. she has to have a good rep with players after all these years


Some really good "reps" with a select few, rumor has it.

I'd rather it a big & quick pronounced public spectacle for all to see and note. But lessons will never be learned, unless tons of $$$$ is lost by all parties, even remotely involved. It's a shame what ESPN/ABC/Disney has devolved into.
