http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2016/03/08/report-mike-ditka-out-matthew-hasselbeck-in-at-espns-sunday-nfl-countdown/ Fine. Good. But Matt Haselback replaces him? They couldn't get a bigger name? Don't they have to replace Keyshon still? What's more interesting is Florio writes that Berman and Jackson could be gone after this year. |

I try to catch Rob Riggle. That's about it. I do like Amy Trask on "That Other Pregame Show" buried on CBS sports network |

I guess falling asleep and farting during the show didn't go over too well. He probably really got fired for his conservative political views, though. |

Fire Berman, Cris Carter, Skip Bayless, Stephen A. Smith, Chris Broussard, and Lou Holtz while you're at it. ESPN may become watchable again. |

The TV world is different. Jawarski got fired from Monday Night Football but they still let his cracker ass talk on ESPN shows during the week. |

I remember him saying in an interview last year that the travel was getting to him a bit. He can relocate to Florida for most of the year and do 5 minutes 4x/week and that's it. |

Julie DiCaro called him. Told him he is in a "protected class". Old and disabled. They can't fire him, but they can push him off into a corner and still pay him. |
