Man I didn’t know the Athletic fired people.
Maybe a case of falling forward? Does the athletic pay well?McAfee insinuated on his show that they reached out to him regarding a job.
Doesn’t Pat already make a gazillion plus at ESPN?McAfee insinuated on his show that they reached out to him regarding a job.
Possible that something bad happened that forced an abrupt ending?While I'm not a fan, I know many are and it is completely lame for The Athletic to fire football writers during the middle of training camp.
They actually fire a lot of people.Man I didn’t know the Athletic fired people.
They actually fire a lot of people.
He was on the radio this afternoon and didn’t bite. He just said it came out of left field. They had their opinion on why his employment was no longer valued. He disagreed but obviously didn’t have a say in the matter.I don't know the answer to this, but did he actually get fired, or did his contract run out and they decided not to offer him a new one, or they couldn't come to an agreement on a new one?
But you are correct in that as they continue trying, and failing, to make money they have cut ties with a lot of writers.
Kaboly being the Bubba the love sponge equivalentLet's hope DK hires him again only to get fired again and then shiteposts more DK personal stuff
He’s simply not talented enough to be the aashole he is .He was on the radio this afternoon and didn’t bite. He just said it came out of left field. They had their opinion on why his employment was no longer valued. He disagreed but obviously didn’t have a say in the matter.
It appears that he already has lots of opportunities, one of which is working for Pat MacAfee. He will be fine.
Just a ton of reporterIs the athletic still losing a ton of money?
Well Kaboly, I’m sure this is all Pitt’s fault… Hopefully you’ll get a job out of town….Maybe the Toronto Argonauts?
I never really thought his writing was anything to go crazy over, maybe above average, but he carved out this weird niche in the last year or so. Guest hosting on the Fan, McAfee seemingly finding him entertaining as some sort of clown sideshow and having him in studio, then doing spots on other national shows like Cowherd.He's not particularly talented. I think he kind of lucked into the career he's had covering the Steelers for multiple outlets. But now that he's done that, he does have some paper credentials to land some kind of future employment.
North Belle Vernon but who's counting.Just a small town boy, born and raised in South Mckeesport........don't stop..............
Sue knew too!Kaboly already has his next gig booked....he is playing Scott paterno in the Sandusky bio pic
Dorin is pretty good as well.Kaboly sucks as well as the Fan ( except PB)
You guys sound like those political cucks (Ski, that's for you) who just parrot "everything about my team good, everything about the other team is bad."Yes!
No, you didn't.I had his dad as a teacher in Jr High. Pretty much the same personality.
it's disgusting how alot of these media members are spoken too every day on twitter. listen, many are annoying, egotistical with zero leads, acting like they have all the inside sources. i get it. but man, you read some of these guys, no matter if its zeise, poni, this guy, pick a local guy and 2/3rd of the replies are like this.. i think Madden eventually turned off replies..
