That's part of the reason ESPN is tanking. Why pay an announcer $7 mil/yr?


Were they getting $7 million a year in production out of John Gruden? What exactly was he providing that drives revenue for them? Were people actually tuning in only because John Gruden was doing color commentary?

Can I end this post with one more question?
