That's too bad, he really knows the game and knows how to break it down.

Don't quote me on this, but it seems like he might have been making some comment about Black people and athletes being treated unfairly. Not for sure though.

That sucks, I always liked how he broke the game down and his coverage of the CWS. He really knew baseball. I hope he'll find a good job somewhere else.

Considering I don't care that much for baseball, unlesss the Huskers are playing, Reynolds was one of the best out there. He really did know his game and actually kept me interested in the game.

He probally wanted to talk about other teams beside the Red Sox, Yankees, Mets, and Braves.

I hope that he wasn't fired because he gave some one a friendly hug. now if he was trying to ram his tounge down her throat at the same time, I could see where she might get a little pissy

That's what it sounds like. He was accused of sexual harassment by giving some woman a hug.

The OWH said that he is trying to get the job back. Here is Reynolds exact quote: "It was a total misunderstanding. My goal is to sit down and get back. To be honest with you, I gave a woman a hug and I felt like it was misinterpreted. Personally I hope he gets the job back, or gets hired somewhere to do baseball commentating. He is one of the best in the biz, and I hope to see him again.

i liked his on-air personality, seemed like a nice guy. Too bad ESPiN is getting rid of all their best commentators.

ESPN isn't hiring him back, but he is getting offers from other networks.
