Another forgotten football broadcasting classic from around that time was the ESPN News anchor who made a Trail of Tears joke about the Oklahoma Sooners after they lost a close game against Texas (or Texas A&M or Texas Tech, can't remember which).

Kate Scott is the new TV play by play voice of the sixers, she’s the second woman to be an NBA team’s PBP announcer.

Kate Scott loving rules. She was on the morning show for KNBR in the San Francisco Bay Area as the ancillary person when I moved there back in 2010. The Niners also had her do some radio play-by-play. She has a fantastic radio voice.

I'm very happy for her :)

You can still be part of their podcast network without living there, the shutdown fullcast is doing a show with them. Plus not exactly a difficult job to do remotely.

It could be a little bit tighter but it does show some promise for filling the HQ-sized hole left in ESPN's programming. It was pleasant enough to have in the background. Little bummed that it appears Bo won't be a part of it.

That's because Bomani Jones is (probably) leaving ESPN in March.

Yeah, saw that. Given that he's still around for a few more months, I figured he might be involved in this from time to time and that we might get extra Foxworth Friday-type content.

She is fantastically gross. She showed her chuddiness when she complained about the airport protests in 2017 inconveniencing her travel; now she's just elevated her game so the MAGA types think she's "one of the good ones."

I don't want to fantasy-book somebody's real life, but I really enjoy The Right Time and hope he still has a passion and desire to do something like that if he does leave. my guess is he'd join the Meadowlark Pirate Ship less as an accessory for the LeBatard Show, but to reboot The Right Time outside of ESPN alongside the HBO show, but probably also focusing on the storytelling angle that Meadowlark has also suggested is a real major point.

I've been a fan/follower of Bo since he was bringing the big gold belt to Around the Horn, he's so good at doing what he does I hope he wants to continue it.

Wow, ESPN should just go back to Lumberjack Games or the Aussie Rules Football League or Cliff Diving from some remote place.

It worked for Wide World Of Sports for over 2 decades.

I remember ESPN in its' early incarnation.

It's not too much to return afternoon weekdays to that as opposed to stuffy talking heads saying things.
Things no one is really hitching any star to.

Or gives a gently caress about.
