Good bye Ed Werber and Jason Stark, who's on the list?

In a message sent Wednesday to ESPN employees, network president John Skipper announced the company was beginning its next round of layoffs, a long-anticipated move that is expected to thin the ranks of ESPN’s on-air and online talent.

Sorry, just parroting what I thought was the general stance around here, that ESPN does now, and has always and forever, sucked balls.

I know.
And as I have always said, we all hate ESPN and their never-ending supply games to watch and news about 100% sports, right? It's just terribly inconvenient how ALL ESPN does is talk about sports and show games!

Cohn left ESPN some time ago, believe she is with XM.
The games on ESPN are great, it is their other left wing crap I refuse to watch, haven't seen Sports Center for at least 10 years.

Good god you're a dork.
Differ and Cannell were quality but dudes like Beaumonte Jones are sinking the ship. Speaking of which...all traditional msm is suffering. Look for this to bleed over into cable news as well. They're fighting a losing battle.

On Saturday's, MTV has something called 90s Nation that is exactly what you think - hits and duds from the 90s.
