Sign of the times. I'd miss Britt McHenry.


She just covered the Combine.

Also I think Dianna and Toni are safe because unsure if anybody follows Dianna and/or Toni on Instagram but on Dianna's she was doing a photo shoot and Toni was there.

seeing all the names on here they have a ton of folks working on camera. Big company with many sports to cover but I think they've overdone it with all the different SportsCenter shows. Anxious to see who gets let go but I assume it will be many ex-jocks and a few female reporters who are getting lost in the shuffle. I could see a pickle Vitale retiring as he's been getting slowly phased out on the Network and has a salary I'm sure they'd like gone.

I appreciate there are many more hot women on SportsCenter than there used to be, but I grew tired of the WWL's shtick long ago and the chicks would have to be naked in heels for me to watch now

That's basically how I feel. I got tired of the annoying antics on SportsCenter a long time ago and only watch games on ESPN. I wish they would go back to showing highlights of the games and talking about them, instead of trying to make themselves more important then the highlights they are showing and trying to one up their co-anchor.

Totally agree, lot of people on there who think they're funny, but they're not.

Upside is that standing shots of the ladies. Back in the day, talent stay behind the desk.

Downside is no point of standing shots of the ladies if you need a telescope to see them. Back in the day, you could clearly make out the talent behind the desk.

That's worse than expected though we don't know what going to happen with ESPN 2/ESPN News which airs six hours of Sportscenters. Sounds like Sportscenter AM is done and probably so are the people there (bye-bye Jaymee?). What's the fate of Coast to Coast? Not a big fan of Bomani and Pablo getting a show.

That would be bad news. But I would say ESPN2 would get SportsCenter AM as far as Mike Greenberg new show is concerned, and I would see ESPN SportsCenter anchors might sign multi-year deals and/or take a pay cut. I'd be shocked if Jaymee Sire, Kevin Negandhi, and SportsCenter AM crew getting the boot. That would be terrible.

The problem is they might continue with the Radio Show with Golic and whoever they replace Greeny with. Probably called mornings with the Golics (Junior is a possible candidate to replace Greeny) or something like it. Honestly I just don't see Greeny carrying a show by himself.

I agree. Whether its Golic Jr. or Trey Wingo who shared his NFL role with Suzy Kolber and Samantha Ponder this season. As for the SportsCenter morning editions, I expect Hannah Storm, Cari Champion, Sara Walsh, Jaymee Sire, Sarina Morales, and the rest of SportsCenter AM crew to be safe from layoffs IMO. It's like the free agency and trade deadline of layoffs.

I can see Storm being let go, getting older, probably makes a lot, seems like her role has been reduced a bit.

After hearing that podcast, it will be interesting at least to see whose names are going to be on the layoff line.
