Couldnt find any other female huh?
:mjpls:
She's hosted First Take on and off for years now, so it makes sense that it'd go to her. The others either already have a defined gig or would have used it as a stepping stone. For her, it's a promotion from SC.

I also wouldn't use the :mjpls: with her considering her husband is Jordan Cornette

:mjpls: not for her
:mjpls: for the decision maker who put her in the chair

She was comparing herself to less tenured peers. Like you’re using the wrong comparison. Why wouldn’t she feel a way when someone like Malika Andrews just got resigned from what is probably a higher salary and is on less popular shows and adds nothing?

I hate Malika Andrews, so I hate defending her
But I'm thinking ESPN values that Malika does other things that adds more value. She actually is on the road constantly covering the NBA, has her own show (even if it's subpar), also does some reporting on NBA news as well, also does one on one interviews with players, etc

I don’t disagree but collectively that’s probably still less TV time than Molly being on First Take for 3 hours every day. Malika is just married to someone else at the company.

I don't think you're getting it. ESPN values the different areas they can put you in and how "versatile" you can be. I've even seen Malika Andrews on the beat like a journalist asking NBA players questions. Looks like they are trying to make her into a secondary Brian Windhorst. I just named 5 things Malika does for ESPN
You can only name 1 for Molly. That's your answer, thee end
