Harold Reynolds > Sean Salisbury
Quote:
|
REYNOLDS' LAWSUIT POINTS TO SALISBURY CELL PHONE SHENANIGANS We knew it would happen. The moment we read that Sean Salisbury of ESPN was suspended for a week after showing cell phone photos of Lil' Sean to co-workers, we knew that Harold Reynolds, formerly of ESPN, would make an issue of the fact that Reynolds' termination based on merely hugging a co-worker was unfairly harsh. We knew it would happen because it was obvious to us that Reynolds was treated differently (i.e., worse) than Salisbury. Though Sandomir's story doesn't name Salisbury, Sandomir refers to "an analyst [who] showed a cellphone photograph of his genitals to male and female employees and received a one-week suspension." Sandomir also mentions the fact that Jay Crawford and Woody Paige of ESPN2's defunct Cold Pizza have been sued for sexual harassment. Both are still on the network, and no apparent discipline was imposed on either of them. But to the extent that Reynolds is trying to prove that ESPN goes easier on white employees than it does on African-Americans, Reynolds overlooks the fact that ESPN yanked Brian Kinchen (who is white) off of the air for using the phrase "kinda ***" during a college football telecast. As far as we can tell, Kinchen never was reinstated. Reynolds also ignores the fact that Bristol bent over backwards to keep Michael Irvin, who wasn't fired after failing to disclose an arrest for possession of drug paraphernalia. Likewise, ESPN has a significant number of minority analysts. Hey, we've got plenty of gripes about the Worldwide Leader in Sports. But, in our view, it's not a racist organization.

They need to fire Salisbury for being a horrible analyst. Let alone showing off his junk around the office.

But if they fire Sean, who would then slobber all over USC and make bonehead analysis of the NFL that we could all mock?

No offense Shiver, but why would you post this? You know how it's going to end up.

Herbstreit is far and away the best, Mark May seems to have a Texas fetish.

I liked HR on baseball tonight, he just had the right personality for it. I can't stand Salisbury, he just screams out random things on teams based on what they did this week and extremely overrates some teams.

Sean Salisbury uses hyperbole more than any other person I've ever seen. If Harold is fired, and he's actually a good analyst, then there is no excuse for Sean to still be around.

No kidding, the former players they keep bringing on there are just terrible and awkward. HR was awesome.

The best analyst in the game imo, I've felt that way for some time.
Thursday Night College Football with him and Tirico was aces.

He is one of the better ones, but is an OSU homer. Then again, he has a right to be. =D

In all honesty, I change the channel whenever Holtz is about to speak. That sounds pretty cruel, doesn't it?
I'm just not interested in his analysis (or lack thereof) at all, nevermind the ridiculous homerism.

He has to be a homer because Mark May is one of the biggest Notre Dame haters out there.
