I know...but I can't tell you

He's a great Redskin, but IMO a very average analyst. As far as on the spot film breakdown and analysis, he can't hold a candle to Jaworski.

You know, I hear more and more people throwing all sorts of praise upon Ron Jaworski for his analysis and breakdowns, but to me, he comes across as the guy who's a know-it-all. At times, he goes a bit overboard and I find him to be every bit of the talker that Joe Theismann was -- if not moreso.

I don't hate him or anything -- but I don't really get all the love.

I honestly liked Joey better. I am more than willing to admit it's cause he was my childhood hero though.
Jaws kind of annoys me a little at time cause he tends to get very vocal, and has difficulty holding on to the volume of his words too. He reminds me of Kornheiser. And While I like the both of them, just seems like they are yelling in the booth a lot.

PM me if need be, but this is killing me that I can't find out why they got rid of him. I am a long time Joey T fan.

Times change. People move on. Shizzle happens. It's nothing jaw dropping, really.

So was it Joe's idea or ESPN's?
I'd still like to know...please PM if you know anything.
It just doesn't make any sense to me.

Don't take this personally, but you really don't need to know. It's nothing scandalous, just a matter of people not seeing eye to eye

I don't take it personally, I know I don't need to know, I want to know. If you really can't say anything, then you should say stuff like this:
I know...but I can't tell you
Don't even bother telling us you know if you're not willing to share. Some of us would really like to know.
