Tim Griffin has left ESPN

[sd'sker]

I didn't mind him for the lone fact he updated his blog the most out of all the posters and had some pretty good information. I would have never known Shipley and McCoy roomed together if it wasn't for him.

i guess that's the in-depth reporting we would expect from him; banal and pointless. it was mentioned every time mccoy passed to shipley. i did enjoy his weekly rankings and when his "what we learned", but i imagine whoever replaces him will do those posts just as well.

He lost me when he tried to justify Colt McCoy for Heisman. I was willing to put up with his poorly researched articles up to that point, but his Heisman vote made literally no sense. It will be nice to get a new voice on ESPN, hopefully one a little better

any casual fan of a team in the big XII can do a better job. i read his posts because i am addicted to anything that might mention the 'skers. the heisman vote explanation is where i think he lost all of husker nation, it was shameless. overall though, it was not that he was bad, it is just that he never wrote anything that insightful, or that i did not already know. he was pretty predictable or just gave old updates. i am excited to see who the new person is and how he/she does.

The Griffin was the half eagle, half lion. The Phoenix was reborn of it's own ashes.

i wonder if tim griffin is any relation to this guy:

Maybe Romo's trophy chick and 'frequent contributor' to the Midwest Sports Fans blog can take over for Ti...Tim...Timm-ah.

I heard Griffin will be replaced by Bevo.

 

Wait, how is that different than before?

 

This thread is turning into Rumorville Jr.

I'd vote for Sam McKewon. I'd hate for the Nebraska State Paper to lose him . . . but I like his writing.

Really? I couldn't watch 5 minutes of ESPN without hearing that

Ha ha. My bad. Maybe I should have taken a mythology class at UNL. It would have been more fun than calc 208. Probably more useful too.

Oh happy day! I know one guy who will be pleased by this...his name rhymes with shmarlfence

[whateveritis1224]

Just who are they going to get to cover the Big XII though? Exactly where is the guy going to come from? Which paper did they grab from? I really wouldn't be surprised if the new guy ended up being from the Dallas/Fort Worth area seeing as there's ESPN Dallas. But I guess we'll just wait and see.

Tim......As we say here in South Texas, Vaya con Dios. And might I add don't let the door hit you on the way out!
