They must be crapping their pants at ESPN knowing their ratings won't be carried by their self-created fake scandal anymore.
There's more than enough evidence. All going back to the Mort case. We know that ESPN knew the info was false and we have proof.
Evidence of what? What grounds would you sue a private club where you specifically agreed to accept any discipline and never sue the league? It's in the NFL constitution.
Do you mean try to sue for damages by saying the anti trust exemption and salary cap are illegal?
The funny thing is if you go to any other team's message board, they are convinced that ESPN are major Patriots homers and are so far up Bob Kraft's arse. It was like they missed the entire Deflategate saga on their network and site.
I'd throw a like at that, but it's going to be bottom rung guys just trying to make a living so I can't bring myself to do that. If it was 200-300 on-air personalties I'd give you a winner, though.

Why on earth would you expect the issue to be closed? It will never be closed. It will crank up again come the playoffs, /especially/ if the appeal is heard around then. It will never be closed but its not even going to slow down for a good 8-9 months.One more day until the whole absurd fiasco is essentially closed.

Keep telling yourself that. You'll see the same tired hacks on screen this time next year. The little guys always get the shaft. That's how the world works.The on-air personalities are leaving in droves (and many of them are going via pink slips).
Also many ventures are being deep-sixed.
From my linked article:
"The upcoming layoffs will reportedly save ESPN $30-40 million annually".
Well, if you divided the high end of the layoffs number into that high end $40 million, you get $133,333 per year.
So I don't agree that most of the pain will be felt by the "bottom-rung guys".

Now if it was 200-300 employees of 345 Park Ave I'd cheer that. Place is infested with Rats......er, I mean Jets.
I don't know how you would exrapolate Colt troll and 9/11 conspiracy theorist because I question what kind of employee's ESPN is giving the ax to. Besides Bill Simmons (which realistically has nothing to do with the layoffs and was gone regardless) throw some on air names at me.I just gave you factual data and you responded with "Keep telling yourself that"?
Did a Colt fan or 9/11 conspiracy theorist take over your account?
ESPN is just as infested as the NFL headquarters.

I have never been more excited for a regular season game (outside of the post-rat "Mangini" game).
**** ESPN, **** Indy, **** Irsay.
Let's roll.
