Salisbury Fired, Carter Hired

ESPN will be replacing NFL analyst Sean Salisbury with former Vikings great, wide receiver Cris Carter.

“I want to thank ESPN for 12 great years of talking football on TV and the radio,” Salisbury said in a statement. “I have grown as much as I can at ESPN and decided to expand my horizons. I have created a brand and it’s time to expand into other opportunities in TV, radio, Internet, publishing, movies and public speaking, among others. My resume speaks for itself as a football analyst, and I believe I can talk all sports with the best of them.”

This move should have been made years ago but I suppose it’s better late than never. I have never been able to stand Salisbury’s loud mouth and I’m very happy he’s gone.

Cris Carter will be an instant improvement and I can’t wait to see him on NFL Live.
