Re: ESPN has fired Sam ponder and RGIII
They should get rid of Dan Orlovski and Kimberly Martin as well.

What don’t you like about Dan? He’s insightful with his analysis. He’s one of the few who goes over tape.
No idea who Kim Martin is. ESPN just hired Ben Solak from the ringer who is good

Dan has absolutely no credibility in my house. He does break down a game very well but his opinions and predictions are beyond fruit loops. He lost me years ago when he had his unhealthy man crush on Carson Wentz. It was worse than Skip Bayless's unhealthy man crush on Tim Tebow when he was on cold pizza.
I could listen to Swaggoo, Damien Woody and Louis Reddick for the whole 4 hours every morning than any of the other buffoons I can't stand on that network.

Do fans actually still watch ESPN's Sunday countdown coverage? I haven't watched it in years. Not since Berman left the show.

lol I can't stand ESPN. Laura Rutledge is nice to look at. But their coverage at times is cringeworthy. They have the worst commentators.

Man I love Laura R also. I actually know Sam personally (she doesn’t know who I am) but she’s from phoenix and I’ve met her a few times. One of my buddies is friends with her. She is absolutely lovely

Dan knows how to be successful in the talking head business: by having ridiculous takes.

I used to love Sunday countdown when it was Berman, Tom Jackson, Ditka, Cris Carter, Keyshawn and Mort. Haven't watched it for a while now.

I don't follow sports journalists anymore. I used to but now I just watch the games. So I can't answer that question.
