What's worse is the immediate need to release "Power Rankings" for the next season.

Had “Get Up” on in the background this morning. They are trying to hype this Brady isn’t retired thing to keep the hot takes rolling. RG3 was on and said he’s pretty sure Brady will stay retired. Then the next time they talked about it in another segment, he changed his tune to “i can see him coming back”. Like the executives told him to stfu about him staying retired

Why did they keep Mark Jackson? I think JJ Reddick will do just fine as the main color commentator with Breen.

I have no idea what the contract situations are, but worth noting they kept Sage Steele and Sam Ponder.
