Wilbon vs DC. This one was absolutely hilarious.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/05/michael-wilbon-dan-steinberg-espn-dc-fans_n_1942866.html

This Huffingpost article covers the entire war but to put it simply:

Wilbon says DC is a nothing sports town, once again showing disdain to the city he lived in for three decades. ESPN anchor Bram Weinstein and Washington Post Blogger Dan Steinberg call him out. Wilbon back tracks, takes personal shots. Steinberg eviscerates him. Wilbon, standing against the ropes decides to throw a chair at Steinberg, realizes he looks like an even bigger rear end than he already is, sprain his knee backtracking. Then everyone chills and hopefully Wilbon stays in Arizona.

I for the life of me cannot understand why anyone would watch ESPN outside of games, but like half the forum appears to watch it all day long. If you want highlights just flip on ESPNews, it's generally a better product anyway.

He's a name so I guess some podunk station in Iowa would pick him up. He's loving ESPN garbage though, Rome atleast has gems like the pet holocaust and bum stealing the bread out of the mouth of duck bits that are entertaining. What does Cowherd bring to the table? Yankees, Cowboys, Lakers nonsense. Atleast that's what I heard when I listened to him seven years ago.

Kellerman didn't have a successful talk show before going to Fox, though. Host of a fake sportswriter judging gameshow isn't the same as doing a 3 hr broadcast of some kind.

Don't forget his less successful spinoff on whatever failed sports channel it was on. Kellerman is great in the boxing enviroment, I heard he trolls Laker fans so that's a plus.

I thought Kellerman's Fox show was just him and Michael Holley doing a PTI kind of thing, and while neither were bad on Around the Horn, they really couldn't carry a show themselves.

One is a seemingly decent human being who told the truth about a lovely human being, which is of course his job. This doesn't really reflect very poorly on ESPN as a whole, at least to the general public. The other was just being a lovely awful human being, which of course makes ESPN look VERY bad to the general public. At least temporarily.

No one is going to care or remember in a week anyway. More than likely she is going to become the patron saint of those who have been towed.
