Message: [QUOTE="FASTEDDY, post: 2171473, member: 2086"] I hate it when good people who had nothing to do with ESPN's issues are laid-off and jobless. This is always sad and unfortunate. However, most will likely land on their feet, as they are talented and have something of quality and value to offer the marketplace. However, even as a CT native and taxpayer, I cannot and will not shed any tear for ESPN. They have repeatedly screwed over UCONN in every which way possible and their backhanded dealings and actions have been directly responsible for the conference predicament that UCONN is currently in. ESPN has continually taken HUGE tax incentives to stay in CT and would leave CT at the drop of a hat if the tax incentives / tax breaks were not there. They have no loyalty to CT at all and this shows in how they have treated and acted towards UCONN. I listen to ESPN radio a lot and have heard numerous on air pot shots at Bristol and CT as a whole.
