I wonder if they know something that we don't know
I really like Harold. That's too bad. He really knows the game.
Who knows...cost-cutting? (maybe a high salary). He seemed
like a nice guy, knowledgeable. Had done coverage of Little League World Series, Baseball Tonight, columns for them etc
LOL, the only thing you excerpted was:
"andrew.marchand@nypost.com"
well, I got the whole article in, technically
I guess one of the rumors is sexual harassment on some of the Production Assistants.
First Rush Limbaugh now Harold Reynolds.
I wonder if he is any relations to ex congressman MEL REYNOLDS?????
I liked Reynolds. Otherwise, they should fire everyone but Ravech & Gammons, especially Kruk, Destrades (sp?) & Phillips.
Great post...thanks
Yikes...Bill Clinton disease?

I used to work with a guy who was with ESPN for 5 years after he graduated from college. According to him, Reynolds was always hitting on the staff girls. That may be a reason why it's so hush-hush.
He also said Stewart Scott was a king-sized jackass who always talked trash during the inter-staff pickup games of basketball, flag football, etc. Scott's wonky eye affected his hand-eye coordination and preventing him from backing it up.........allegedly.
Your link seems to be invalid.
That other thread is here:

Drat!

Loads of irony and inconsistency here.
It was reported that Mike Tirico's early years at ESPN were marked by numerous incidents of sexual harassment up to and including the laying on of hands. Many of the stories were corroborated and I believe Tirico was disciplined. Of course, he was one of the few black on-air ESPN employees and to jettison him would have caused a PR firestorm. Tirico, of course, advanced to become lead golf announcer for ABC and one of ESPN's lead college football announcers. If the stories are true about Tirico it's sad that his behavior was rewarded in the interest of 'affirmative action' but liberals have so many spokes in their special-interest Wheel of Fortune that they eventually have to choose the 'progressive' cause of the day.
The Reynolds rumors seem very similar but hey ESPN's all about the hoops these days YO so a well-spoken black on-air personality talking about crusty old baseball is expendable.
Not condoning Reynolds' inappropriate actions if there were any but there is obviously a double standard here.
