LMFAO Adrian Wojnarowski for YEARS has ripped ESPN, criticized it as an entity and even made comments about staff that joined ESPN. I guess Adrian has decided to cash in.......... which is fine I suppose, but he owes some apologies to current and former ESPN talent.
Does this mean the hit pieces he used to write are a thing of the past?? Usually when somebody makes this kind of sell-out move, they're neutering their own sense of self. Also, it won't be as satisfying to see a #WOJBOMB knowing that he works for the biggest sports media outlet in the world.
Man, Broussard missed his chance to break this story. That would have been epic irony. Where's his ESPN sauces. Maybe he'll report instead multiple sources saying Bill Simmons to take over The Verticle.
Have to believe with Verizon taking over Yahoo, Woj probably saw the writing on the wall that he wouldn't get the same resources as before. I don't blame him for moving on. I am sure he can start a new "Vertical" at ESPN and do the same thing with more resources and TV exposure. Hope Woj takes Shams with him....(and Michael Lee, Bobby Marks and Boston's Chris Mannix).
Completely agree with "writing on the wall" analogy but, damn it, did it have to be ESPN? I can just see Chris Broussard claiming "MULTIPLE SAUCES" and Woj just rolling his eyes or facepalming
