The cable station fired 100 people today, including Burnside and Lebrun.

Not enough LeBron, Kobe and Tebow in the NHL apparently.

And of course the one guy I wish they WOULD fire (so he'd be free to join a hockey-centric network), John Buccigross, remains firmly ensconced.

I gave up on ESPN when they devoted 90% of their coverage to the Brett Favre Dithering Saga. Glad I did because I missed out on the rise of Skip Bayless.

I stopped watching Espn back in 2004. I do still miss those announcers though.

Thorne and Clement were so good. Thorne didn't always get everything right but he was fantastic(kind of like Bob Cole later on).

They have a good box score layout on their website but that's about it. Did Melrose get sacked?
