I love reading his forde yard dash every week but have not been able to find it lately. Watching Dan Patrick show this morning and saw he is now with yahoo sports. Any knowledge of this.

he was unhappy with management and left espn for yahoo effective Nov 1 due to them not letting him report on newsworthy stories because of espn's many conflict of interest.

Most of the good reporters at ESPN leave due to their shitty management. See Bruce Feldman.

If he wants to do reals sports journalism he made a great move. It was Yahoo who broke the Penn State cover up. Yahoo is always in the lead when it comes to breaking major sports news.
