Da Bears 88 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 NFL analyst Sean Salisbury is leaving ESPN, he and the network said in a joint statement today. In the statement, Salisbury said this: "I want to thank ESPN for 12 great years of talking football on TV and the radio. I have grown as much as I can at ESPN and decided to expand my horizons. I have created a brand and it's time to expand into other opportunities in TV, radio, Internet, publishing, movies and public speaking, among others. My resume speaks for itself as a football analyst, and I believe I can talk all sports with the best of them." It is not clear what Salisbury plans to do with the brand he has created, but it's hard to believe he could find a more prominent outlet for his work than the Worldwide Leader. ESPN's brief statement said, "Sean Salisbury has made many contributions to our efforts for the past 12 years. We thank him and wish him all the best." Salisbury had brief stints as a quarterback for the Seahawks, Colts, Vikings and Chargers. He has also served as play-by-play man on BattleBots and appeared in the movies The Benchwarmers and The Longest Yard. Good riddance. He can't say shit about Rex, now.

chitownman Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 He was a puss as a player and an ass as a commentator. Hope that he remains out of the lime light and just drifts away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
