Received my call. Laid off effective immediately. I love what I do and I will continue. Tough day for many with ESPN layoffs. Thx to all.
From his Twitter, sorry at work having issues.

So, now ESPN is down to 3,549,443 NFL pundits huh?
Richard Deitsch with SI apparently knows who is going to get the calls and who isn't when it comes to the big time on air people but says he's not going to reveal and let them announce on their own. According to his facebook page yesterday, anyway.
Out of curiosity, who DO we like?
Our fans have put so many people on the UK Enemies List over the years that I'm genuinely unsure who's left.
ESPN will cut more than 100 employees today, Yahoo Finance has learned.
It has been widely reported for weeks that big cuts are coming to ESPN—so widely reported, and dissected, and gossiped about, in fact, that ESPN moved up its schedule and is notifying people earlier than it originally planned.
The 100 people getting cut are all “on-air talent,” a label ESPN uses for TV personalities, radio hosts, and writers who regularly appear on TV and radio. (ESPN says it has 1,000 such people, prior to these cuts.)

Hopefully all the biased against Kentucky ones get their walking papers.
You are literally just making this up. That's not on his twitter page.
Fake news.
I didn't realize we had an ESPN employee posting on here. Sorry about you losing your job. I know that must be tough.

I have a very hard time hoping anyone loses their job. I've been there before, not fun.
Someone fell for the fake Jeff Goodman twitter page again? Don't worry, so did Bleacher Report
Sorry my bad, it was in a stream of Twitter feeds and I didn't go directly to his feed to see if it was really him or not.
Dana O'Neil gone, can't say I'm sorry for the Cal hater
[laughing] Whoever is running that account has gotten a ton of people.
These people aren't being fired, they are being laid off. It's a changing industry and ESPN has accelerated their decline with their left wing, political nonsense.
This has nothing to do with them doing a good job or not. It's just diminishing revenue...so expense cuts needed to offset.
Hate to see anyone lose their job for something other than performance.

John Skipper should do the right thing and terminate himself.
Please fall on your face on the way out.
Yay, a bunch of people lost their jobs. This is so awesome. WTF is wrong with you people?
They have to make cuts somewhere since ESPN and John Skipper have been funding UNC's legal defense [sick]
Please tell me they layoff the SportsCenter duo... That was a terrible idea
Maybe they can clear enough to shut the whole network down except for the NFL of course. I mean isn't that their goal anyway? To compete with the NFL network and maintain rights?
Haven't watched the NFL in two years. Totally unbearable
