there was speculation that it had to do with sexual harassment, but again they were just speculating, they said that's pretty much the only thing they thought it could be. it was mid season and he had been there for 11 years.

what could have harold have said to kruk to get fired? "hey fattie" or "hey, at least i have both of my balls" ??? I can't believe Harold would get the boot before Kruk.

If this was about a girl PA running her mouth i'm gonna be fucking pissed. I don't know what happened, but I SERIOUSLY doubt Harold Reynolds sexually harassed some girl. I need some serious proof. If they fired him based on her word, that is not cool
espn's a pretty big company. i'm sure if it was over sexual harrassment, they had a little bit more to go on than one person's word.
and i love reynolds, but today it's hard for me to doubt anybody being capable of sexual harassment. not saying everybody's bad, but it's all in how it's taken by somebody.

(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.)

Bonnie Bernstein has struggled with her Jewish identity only once. Fresh out of the University of Maryland and applying for her second broadcast journalism job, she considered dropping the "stein" from her last name. "It was my mom who reminded me that I was better than that, that I should be proud of who I am," she recalls.
From now on, she will be known as Bonnie Bern.

maybe it's just because i like harold but i can't picture him harassing co-workers. but anything's possible.
I'm hoping it's just a blow up with him and the producers that got him axed, like an email deadspin showed. but who knows. eventually you'd think espn would have to talk about it, wouldn't they? i mean, tons of people are going to notice if harold's just not there anymore.

Thats why MOST yankees fans need to be shot. no loyalty at all.
And i wonder why i get shit for still supporting a struggling astros team.
you dont understand. you MUST earn our loyalty. he has been good for us. but for the amount of money we pay him he should be fucking exceptional. until he does something truly deserving of our love forever he will not have the fanbase as say derek jeter or mo.

Riiight... and Derek Jeter's not paid alot? Or do you think he's exceptional enough to be worth 18 Million?
Oh, I forgot, he's Captain Clutch. It must be that exceptional .249 batting average he possesses in close and late situations in the past three years. Or maybe it's the .744 OPS? I'm not sure. His clutchness is impairing my judgment. I guess ARod's incompetent .945 OPS in the same situations over the same period of time is just not exceptional enough for you.

worst baseball player ever. if i had the last pick of the draft and had to take a kid with no arms, no legs, and was blind and deaf, i would take him over fucking bobby higginson. I mean, seriously. We gave him $53 MILLION! who the fuck tricks people into giving that asshat that much money? ugh. he should be locked up for fucking theft.
and now, whatever amount of money we're giving hasek, charles rogers, and mike williams is way too fucking much. plus however much we gave damien easley and dean palmer. dhasipbaivhasupbhae.
at least you've got overpaid players (no one deserves ARod's contract, ever) produce/are on the field.

Mr. Met is the gayest looking thing in the world. The dude just looks like a pedophile. I'm surprise they don't have Faith Day and let him walk around the stadium touching little boys wee-wees.

stop acting like you speak for anybody besides your own dumb ass.
must prove his loyalty?? how about switching from SS to 3B, does that count? It's not like he came to NY for the money, he was getting that money anywhere. You think he wanted to play 3B??

Lol. Let me ask you this..what the hell is the phillie phanatic? What creature?
I will admit our mascot does jackshit compared to the phanatic. Im guessing he does more of appearance stuff than rallying the crowd.

It really can't be considered theft if the team's executives agreed to the deal. If you can get that type of money because the execs are that careless, more power to you.

no, it's stealing when you under perform then get hurt, then play like 8 games all of the 2005 season and make all that money. thank god, he's finally off the fucking payroll. we could throw in one of those attack dummies that police dogs train on, out in right field and he's make more plays AND probably strikeout less than higginsuck.
