Unemployment is a bitch!

Typically, I don't like to insult those who don't have a job, or a source of income, or live on a fixed income. However, in this case, I will.

ESPN and the Sean Salsbury "brand" have annonced their divorce. Just hours after ESPN announced the hiring of former Viking Cris Carter, they announced they were splitsville with another, much shitter Viking. Both sides seem to be coping however.


Sean Salisbury: “I want to thank ESPN for 12 great years of talking football on TV and the radio. I have grown as much as I can at ESPN and decided to expand my horizons. I have created a brand and it’s time to expand into other opportunities in TV, radio, Internet, publishing, movies and public speaking, among others. My resume speaks for itself as a football analyst, and I believe I can talk all sports with the best of them.”


ESPN’s statement: “Sean Salisbury has made many contributions to our efforts for the past 12 years. We thank him and wish him all the best.”


For as much as I cannot stand Salisbury as a human being or a stereotypical "football guy," the one thing I could respect about him was that I thought he knew a lot about all sports. I think he might be better in a non-sport exclusive role (such as Mike and Mike) in more mellow place than ESPN.


Now the ladies of another media outlet will have the pleasure of recieving picture messages of Sean's junk.
