1. It would seem that ESPN still has a problem with leakage.
New York Post media columinst and frequent SI Media Podcast guest, Andrew Marchand, reported on Tuesday that ESPN and Michelle Beadle were negotiating terms of a buyout that would see the host leave the network after she was reportedly removed from NBA Countdown.
When I first saw Marchand's story, my first thought was that somewhere, Adnan Virk had to be smiling.
Virk, you'll recall, was fired by ESPN after he allegedly leaked information about the network to Awful Announcing.
