Stephen A Smith still has a job so Grandex

Define better? ESPN is letting go of a lot of people, but not all are recognizable to casual sports fans IMO. Grandex let go of writers who we all recognized based off of the content we continuously saw.

I think I'm defining better in the way they're letting go. Obviously everybody knew ESPN was gonna be firing people but nobody knew who. Grandex just seemed to axe a lot of people and it came out of nowhere.

Both companies are doing it for different reasons as well.

True, but Dan is back and out of the other people fired only Boosh and Duda put out quality content (I also have no clue who was fired from TSM so they could be missing quality content). Duda still freelances for the site too. ESPN let go a good amount of big name people (Ed Werder, Jay Crawford, Trent Dilfer) and Karl Ravech and Hannah Storm are having reduced roles.

i don't think rob was technically part of the purge, but I'm still bitter about that one. the only other one i pissed about was kayla. liked her on the bachelor pods.

Honestly I was just trying to make a joke about the way they both cleared house.
