    Whoa! Now we get BOTH Jeff and Zeff on TV? Wonder if they will ever both work the same game.

    Apparently Stan is working the halftime show with Bill Simmons according to the story.

    A trio of Mike Breen and the Gundies has more potential than the one with Mark Jackson.

    Not surprised. SVG's big fat mouth has made him radioactive to being hired again as an NBA head coach.

    Team them up at ESPN and send Clyde there with them.

    They're moving to different roles within the network according to the story.

    I would loooove to see them do games together. Imagine all the possibilities. I hope this is real.

    I love Magic, but ESPN needs to get rid of him. He has become Clyde-like on the mic

    Jalen Rose would be a good replacement... a poor mans Charles Barkley on the mic, plus he has no filter

    Whoa, Stan has been blacklisted. I wonder if he can even find a local broadcast gig now.

    Well, now Jeff will just have to double his Stern bashing duty now.

    He'll never be able to eat at Hop Sing's again.

    I really wish there was an alternative to ESPN that wasn't so crappy (looking at you, Fox Sports and NBC Sports).

    Stern strikes again. He definitely does not want people expressing true opinions.

    I am not sympathetic to Stern or ESPN at all, but SVG is just too much of a loose cannon and is sleeping in the bed he made. If it's true Stern intervened, he is more despicable than I gave him credit for.

    Stan's voice alone would drive me crazy.

    Bill Simmons would be great for half time.

    haha

    SVG will be awesome to listen to, though. He's like a combination of JVG and Mark Jackson

    If Simmons ever gets used to being on TV, and actually speaks loud enough to hear him he could be great.
