    Lmao, implying ESPN has talent that wasn't poached from elsewhere.

    He's probably getting like 8-9 mill a year.

    RIP Multiple Sources

    Stephen A & Broussard rumor days are over.

    I wonder if Woj's sources will mess with him now that he's on BSPN.

    Broussard already left, right. He works for Fox, I think. Maybe it was an original requirement of Woj to push him out.

    I'm fairly disappointed by this, but it will give me reason to watch ESPN again. Hopefully he won't fall in line with the garbage that ESPN has become over the years.

    WOJ has carved out his own thing and he's the best at it. It would suck for WOJ to no longer be WOJ.

    Wow, you're right. Shows how much I watch ESPN or pay attention to Chris Broussard

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Broussard?wprov=sfla1

    Is ESPN trying to go in a different direction now that they don't have Broussard and Skip Bayless, and have brought on Woj?

    Is he gonna jump on the #hateHouston ESPN train? ;)

    Will he jump on the ESPN Warriors train?

    Will I have to pay for his #insideranalysis?

    Will ESPN tell him to stop scooping the draft like Adam Schefter?

    He's been very critical of LeBron in the past. Will he be less critical now?

    Did he apologize to that "sports cable network" & the people there?

    Will any current ESPN NBA insiders/analysts leave since Woj has made them obsolete?

    Woj and espn really aren't a good match. While woj is the best at what he does, he isn't bill simmons, and so I really don't see why espn would pay that kind a premium for him. I don't understand the move at all.

    My advice to Woj is the same my gramma gave me when I joined the Navy (that was a lifetime ago, good Lawd):

    "I'm so afraid they'll change you. Don't let them change you."

    ESPN is in a desperate hole right now, maybe they're trying to right the ship by bringing in some more credible and honest columnists.

    My glass is half full on this one.

    His sources are his sources. He will still be the most trusted name in basketball rumors.

    Now he can buy a boat for his yacht.

    Multiple sauces: Dan Patrick also set to join the mothership and be muzzled.
