The chatter at ESPN's upfront presentation Tuesday morning centered on Bill Simmons, conspicuously absent since ESPN president John Skipper abruptly announced Friday that he would not renew Simmons' contract.
"It was business," Skipper said in a post-upfront scrum with reporters, adding that his decision does "not detract from the appreciation I have for Bill Simmons."
Skipper characterized Simmons as is a "brilliant" writer and editor who delivered "tremendous value" to ESPN. But in the end, he said, it came down to what he wants to do and what we want to do ...and deciding if it's going to be a match.
