Harold Reynolds no longer with ESPN - **UPDATE** Unconfirmed, possibly sexual harassment

I don't even wanna watch Baseball Tonight this year. Out of all the announcers at the CWS this year Reynolds was the only one who didn't sound like a total tool. The guys on ESPNU blew.
 
You don't terminate somebody like they did Reynolds unless he did something unspeakably bad (from management's POV, that is, not from the viewers' POV). I wouldn't want to guess about what that something could be, though.
 
UNCONFIRMED

a friend of mine is interning at ESPN this summer... i sent him a message, he said possibly sexual harassment, although i'm not going to say official yet.
 
I saw some rumors that he was dissenting with management about the latest report about the Yankees Texas game. He didn't like how ESPN wanted to overanalyze A-Rod. From a Yankees fan's persepective, I would respect that a lot, if true.

Wow. Didn't see that one coming. I always liked Harold Reynolds.. Wonder what happened.

Unconfirmed rumors from someone I knows cousins sisters babysitter intern sheepdog babys mamma said he molested John Kruk at a waffle house. Apparently John doesn't like it if you don't get him some smothered and covered hash browns first.

well the guy sits in ESPN headquarters 8 hours a day, so that's the word floating around Bristol

 

from the blog:

"(UPDATE: Another reader, with "contacts on the inside," refutes the sexual harassment whispers: "Anyone who is saying sexual harassment either has been given bad third-hand info or is lying. Harold has had a couple of rather heated arguments with the producers at "Baseball Tonight," and some of the suits at ESPN over the program's coverage of Alex Rodriguez. At the last production meeting, when it was made clear they were going to really play up the A-Rod angle during coverage of the Yankees-Texas series, Harold had a colossal meltdown, which led to his dismissal. The sexual harassment allegations are even more laughable when you consider that he is being replaced by Steve Phillips -- a man who has never met a skirt he wouldn't chase and who was caught in one of the more embarrassing front office sexual harassment scandals in MLB history."

True? Not true? This, like the rest of it, just reinforces our point: We don't know. And the longer ESPN pretends like nothing happened, like they're a corner shop with three employees, believing this stuff can possibly remain private, the more talk there will be. Still, this is the lone "it's not sexual harassment email" we've received.)"

It would seem this is more plausible. They have Steve Phillips on their staff that guy had a sexual harassment filed against him and was settled.

I'm certainly not a Yankees fan but I think the obession ESPN has with Arod does get annoying. there are plenty of other stories they can cover in baseball. So the guy is in a funk, it happens to everyone. But because he gets 25 mil a year its magnified. Seriously the yankees should just trade him.

I don't know where he would fit with the As but I'd take him. He'll get out of it and go back putting up consistent numbers.

i don't really know what you're problem is, since you're trying really hard with the sarcasm here. ESPN obviously isn't releasing anything, so for people that want a guess, what better place to ask than ESPN's headquarters?

Unconfirmed speculative rumors from an Intern about sexual harassment of a well respected former ball player and announcer.

There's no problem.

yes, a well respected announcer who was just suddenly terminated, and who's former employer keeps saying no comment.

Let it play out and see what happens. ESPN has not said he was fired - they only said he wasn't working there anymore. There's NO reason to imply that he was involved in sexual harrassment. He could have very well been fired, but lets not just run around like little girls and spread rumors. Regardless of where you "heard" or read it (more likely).

they wouldn't be secretively if he wasn't fired... it's obviously something pretty bad.

michael irvin got arrested with drugs in his car and wasn't fired..
 
Shocking to say the least. Harold was one of the great reasons to watch Baseball Tonight and ESPN. Sad. 🙁
