    Please get rid of Beth Moanings. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard. Worst announcer of the bunch. I mute the TV anytime she's on. Reggie Miller is awful too but he may be on TNT?

    ESPN? Who needs it.
    It's day has come and gone, just like Erin Andrews (hate her) Keith Olberman (hate him) Skip Bayless (hate that fudge packer too)
    Colin Cowherd (him I like) Mike Tirico (got shafted) Bill Simmons, and on and on and on and on

    They're going to keep losing subscribers and viewers of their TV channel and internet site if they keep screwing around and acting like a lamer version of TMZ.

    Top stories on their website:

    - Lavar Ball said something idiotic
    - Tim Tebow went 1-12 in his last series; watch every at-bat
    - Lebron James "Here's my thoughts on Lavar Ball and Tim Tebow"
    - Here's a 120 page dissection of the Bucks/Hawks NBA series
    - Is the NHL in their playoffs? We'll ask Barry Melrose and write 3 sentences about it.

He's actually knowledgeable, especially with all Hockey. Actually, let him go somewhere else. He would be a great commentator for the NHL.
    Bucci has his contract expiration date on his twitter profile...he gone. He'd be a great lead for the NHL network. Get rid of Tanguay and some of the ex-NHL players that can barely speak English. Flores landed at MLB Network after he was let go. The talented guys will find work.

I bought him his first ever Bloody Mary and he tried to tell me he wasn't Mexican (said he was some cockaratioin or something like that), I just laughed and said ok. After trying to keep up drinking with me I figured out he was just a hustler that bet everything he had on one game and wanted me to front his next bet.

    I just ignored him after that until he told some girl from Missouri he was Italian. I'm Italian so I was gonna bust his ass about it but my daughter called him a liar lol.

    Just looking out for you guys. I have his name,number and picture if any of you have been ripped off

    For some reason ESPN is shoving Jemele Hill down our throats -- She was a guest on 3-4 shows for awhile and now has her own gig with Michael Smith every night which is unwatchable! She must work cheap while the pros like Bucci get the boot... Just a a brutal product right now. I cringe when the NBA is on ESPN - TNT so much better. Thank God the 4-letter doesn't have hockey anymore!

    I like John Buccigross for his knowledge and REM references.

    I do not like John Buccigross for giving himself the nickname Bucci Mane. Let's take an awful rapper and name yourself after him. Doosh.

    Just think if you worked for ESPN at the moment... everyone always wants a raise... and to feel important for the company they work for. Everyone wants to move up in the rankings as well. Clearly, there is no room for raises at ESPN. It seems like everyone who's working for the company currently have decided on settling. People who've left realized their full potential elsewhere... and longevity.

    Man... I wouldn't want to be in those shoes. Literally... they have you by the balls.

    If I want sports talk, I go to IHeart Radio. Lots of choices all over the country for free. I get all of the sports packages (NHL, MLB, NBA, MILB, and MLS). Only time I have a need for ESPN is if they have a live game on or a decent "30 for 30". Why sit down and watch these guys talk their jibberish, when I can walk all over the house with my phone and listen to whoever I want to?

    I use tunein radio similar to Iheart but have to pay if you want all of it

    I don't even know who watches talk shows on television anymore it has nothing to do with sports most of the time
