We want Sando! We want Sando!
But I will take Kelly.

Drag racing? Is there a joke here?

No matter, VIA CON DIOS TERRY !!!!

That is both hilarious and great news.

Maybe they will find someone who likes football and has a personality and work ethic. I would like even a Seahawks hater before Blount. At least he or she would have more knowledge of the game (probably).

Thank God.

Someone get Farnsworth on the horn and coax him out of retirement, pronto!

Looks like a good move for Blount.

On a good note, it's likely going to be hard to find a worse NFCW reporter for ESPN. Blount wasn't terrible, but he was very middle of the road. The vanilla of sports journalism.

Problem is that once ESPN went to their new web page format, navigating through is terrible. I used to go to the site everyday now maybe it's one a week.

Ya, espn shot themselves in the foot in April, imo. I quit being annoyed with Blount last year. It's not his fault., but I hope there is an upgrade. I wish they would quit hiding Sando. I tried insiders for a month and he never said a word....

 

[QuahHawk]

So happy about this. He seemed really bad but I think some of that was the fact that he had to follow Sando who was the absolute best at his job. Crossing my fingers we get somebody that likes the Seahawks or cares about putting effort into their football journalism.

I hadn't realized it's been 3 years. I used to go to ESPN on a daily basis when Sando was running the column. I tried Blount out for awhile, and have pretty much ceased going to ESPN except when I see links to stories. Hopefully they'll get someone in who's a little better.

Blount was the laziest reporter I've ever come across and was the worst at doing barely enough to get by. Blount was worse than terrible. It makes sense that he is going to cover drag racing because his articles were barely worth 4 seconds of my time.

You've described my experience with the ESPN downgrade from Sando, too. Maybe I'll check back there in the future.

Just what I need: another sight to feed the Seahawk addiction...

Word. For me, Blount as ESPN Seahawks beat reporter was not all that unlike the Lee "Hacksaw" Hamilton experience. Yeeesh!

He can't be Terry Blount because I'm Terry Blount.
