ESPN went through a series of layoffs in the summer, letting go of some big-name personalities like Jeff Van Gundy and Suzy Kolber. The network got grief from many people in the industry, including now from one of their own most important announcers.
While appearing on The Michael Kay Show Monday, Joe Buck addressed the fact that he and Troy Aikman will work a record-breaking 22nd season together. In that conversation, Buck appeared to take a jab at his own company for their layoffs.
“I think we only break the record if we finish the year,” Buck said. “It’s ESPN, we could be fired tomorrow.”
