Sean Salisbury, We Knew Ye Too Well
Well, it was a long day for a Tuesday, but we end it on a high-note. Sean Salisbury is no longer plaguing the hearts and minds of our nation’s youth via ESPN. That’s right. Just in time for ESPN the Weekend, Sean Salisbury has been fired “left to broaden his horizons.”
On the same day former Vikings receiver Cris Carter joined ESPN, the network plans to announce ex-Vikings quarterback Sean Salisbury will be departing after a 12-year stay as an NFL analyst. Word is Salisbury’s contract was up and ESPN decided not to renew.
Here are the statements from both sides:
Sean Salisbury: “I want to thank ESPN for 12 great years of talking football on TV and the radio. I have grown as much as I can at ESPN and decided to expand my horizons. I have created a brand and it’s time to expand into other opportunities in TV, radio, Internet, publishing, movies and public speaking, among others. My resume speaks for itself as a football analyst, and I believe I can talk all sports with the best of them.”
ESPN’s statement: “Sean Salisbury has made many contributions to our efforts for the past 12 years. We thank him and wish him all the best.”
I don’t watch ESPN because I don’t have cable. The internets pretty much allow me to keep on top of EVERYTHING anyway, so why should I need 24-hour “news” and “sports” coverage? But this is just outstanding news. Any time Sean Salisbury is employed by a broadcasting company is a time when every man, woman, and child runs the risk of dying just a little bit inside by accidentally assaulting their minds with the detritus spewing from Sean’s mouth.
Here’s to Sean expanding on his “brand” at least 1,000 miles in any direction away from any sentient being.

you don’t have cable!!!!!! are you fuckin retarded!!!!!!that is fuckin creepy.do you live alone and read by candle light. alright, tv sucks and destroys the mind, but what the fuck do you watch!!! its 70 dollars a month TIGHTASS
. jesus freakin christ, YOU DONT HAVE CABLE!!!!! my last time on this site, but you are correct, he is a douchebag.
To be clear, it’s not OUR fault that paul kenny is going to wrap his car around a light pole later today, right?
Goodness Gracious Great Balls of fire. Ease up some Paul. If he doesn’t have doesn’t want or can’t afford cable that’s his business not yours. On my “FIXED” income i pay a chunk for cable, that’s to speed up the computer above my old dial up more then the boreing basic TV shows. (Leave it to beaver??? Jeese is that dated watching) I mean BOREING. How many times do i need to see The Godfather? I quit watching ESPN sports and am healthier for it.
I had to go out for a bit but Paul the more I thought about what you said about the owner/posters remark about Cable stuck with me. That sonny boy leads me to believe your not an ND guy but some clueless drifter looking for a fight. It was the must tack less, venom bit of tedious attack I have ever seen.
Let me assure you HER LOYAL SONS is a respected Blog and quoted on other Blogs and ND sites. I’m proud to be a reader and have frequently sent my guys here. I’m known as Sir John and am Senior Mod at DomerDomaine and since GoldLid and Enviedone from Irish Envy brought DomerDomain we, IE and DD make up the two Huge FREE sites now.
Mods at DD are pretty much left alone by the new owners to do our thing which is run a great site and avoid people like you. As Senior Mod I have seen it all, believe me since 2005 we have only had to ban five guys. A remarkable calm record.
I have no connection with HLS except as a reader, they list IE as a Fav site but not DD even. (HEY! WHATS WITH THAT?) At IE I am just a member but do come to DD and try to pull stuff like this over there. PUH LEESE! Ahaha,
You have been called out and found wanting my friend. I kid you not.

I’ll have to agree with Sir John on this one Paul. I think you missed the point of the blog. Sean Salisbury is a major deuchebag. Ever since he went around showing his penis to everyone, it’s hard to take anything he says seriously. But Paul, why attack a man for no cable? He’s probably sleeping a lot better than you and me. With all my chanels, there’s only Law & Order to watch. Go troll someplace else please.
I want to apologize for my recent outburst. I am really having a bad week. It all started when I was informed that my boyfriend (life partner) was leaving me for the male clerk at our local coffee house. Then, I dropped my kitten (named Tee-tee) while brushing her teeth and she needed to go to the vet. And as things were starting to look up, I failed my entry test to be on the TV show “smarter than a fifth grader”
Not to mention I still wet the bed.
My week was going okay until I read that.
Didn’t paul say in his first post that that was going to be his last visit to the site?
Love the site, visit everyday, just wish you guys put more on, but I understand that this is not “real life”.
Paul, you seen to relish the role of provocateer. Maybe you should take your verbal diatribe elsewhere,or consider going on anger medication.
Paul, Take a pill dude. I commend the author for not purchasing cable; I wish I had the willpower. I am disgusted each month when I pay those Knick owning, douchebag, Dolans. When will a la carte cable be available?…and yes SS is a D bag too.
Dave, to address your comment, we too would like to publish more content. Right now’s a slow time and our off-season as well so it’s a bit more sporadic. But we’ll be working on getting more content up here regularly during the season as well.
Thanks to everyone for the kind thoughts and d-fence against witless attacks. We love our fans and loathe our enemies.
But this dude is just a tool, and falls into neither bucket.
Besides, MQ get so much content through his computer, I think his head would explode if he had cable.
DOMERdOMAIN UIS HERE FOR YOU AS LONG AS i’M SENIOR MOD
Biscuit,
I thought we all agreed never to speak again of my head exploding. It wasn’t funny then. It isn’t funny now.
it’s KINDA funny. kinda.
