Adrian Wojnarowski Leaves ESPN After Power Struggle with Pat McAfee and What Happens Next at ESPN?

[@user-EB2016]

They always leave out key plot points ... Shams was doing McAfee show prior to PM came to espn. Being loyal to someone is Ok.

[@user-jf9sx1nf3s]

He wouldn't know he is just a sad little hater complaining and blaming others for being a failure.

[@KK-pm7ud]

It's also political. Don't think for a moment that McAfee didn't consider the 2nd and 3rd order consequences. He's very powerful and has powerful friends. He just neutered Woj and made his friend Shams more powerful while also putting others at ESPN. If you smell what Pat is cookin.

[@Ajaxdagrt]

Woj is a friend to Pat and has been on his show multiple times. Same with shams

[@bwanimations7130]

He also had Rapoport before ESPN and would have continued over Shefter if Ian didn’t have a new show at the same time as Pat.

It makes no sense at all what happened. There is obviously more to this story and it was spun. Iger doesn't want bad PR for Disney or its talent. Woj probably took it from multiple sides. I can't wait for Perk bombs.

McAfee was using SHams long before ESPN came along, why would he ditch him after getting on ESPN? Shams will be hired by ESPN anyway.

[@AdamDoing2326]

Shams and Pat go way back. I think before they got on Sirius. Its loyalty. There was also a story that shams broke, woj dunked on him said it was wrong and then it turns out shams was right.. just about on every aspect. I also think its happened a few times. Shams seems more in touch with the player's. Shams is great!!! And honestly fuck all that Pat should see what it'd take to hire Shams as his own NBA insider

[@b_wood_nhtbr7046]

Let's be real I'm not the biggest Mcafee fan but his show is 100x better than anything Dan has done on ESPN imo so a lot of this sounds like hate due to the fact that regardless of their delivery these former athletes provide a point of view that none of these guys can give and that's why we pay more attention to them

Constantly, it used to be entertaining because it was taking jabs at his elitest bosses, but ever since they left ESPN it has been kinda sad and more like a distraction from how bad the show has gotten. It used to be hilarious and they didn't take themselves serious...now they're the "if we don't use our platform and reach to advocate for change it's irresponsible of us".

Woj was two things. Brilliant at his job, which he also pioneered. A vindictive tyrant who damaged many people with his actions. Being one doesn’t excuse the other. And like most bullies, the moment a guy shows up who can’t be bullied and doesn’t bow down, he quit.

[@bankai7623]

[@IngridMichaels-mw5ej]

Was here to defend Woj (I'm biased, sue me) but closed out the video when LeBatard criticized Kelce for his language and McAfee for getting wasted. Both of those events were pretty much unanimously loved by anyone under the age of 50. Kelce and McAfee are pundits, not journos. They're allowed to have some fun and it helps ESPN's brand when they do. That's "fun" within reason, of course. If McAfee shows up loaded for shows on a regular basis, there's a problem. And saying that Shannon Sharpe "has a sex tape" is just blatantly dishonest phrasing. He accidentally went live on IG while he was having sex. Nothing pornographic was shown on camera, you could only hear audio. "Sex Tape" implies you had a pornographic video leaked or released, which is NOT what happened. I'm not planning on watching LeBatard's content again.
