The guy is such a tool. While I love Real Sports, nothing irks me more than when, after each segment, he is sitting there writing notes while talking with the journalist. Pretty pompous in my opinion.
I remember when I speculated last year when he had this mysterious sore throat for like 2 weeks and had a sub fill in. i figured they were testing their ratings with and without bg. Im sure they didnt get worse with him missing. its probably ok to assume he was forced out. yes he was pretty bad.
