Big Daddy Ron Franklin Suing ESPN For Wrongful Termination

by Holly Anderson • Jan 19, 2011 1:16 PM EST
ESPN analyst Ron Franklin, fired following yet another run-in with a female colleague, is suing the network for wrongful termination with that big pouty mouth of his.

The college sports announcer, whose quarter-century of servicing American ladies with his bedroom eyes via their television screens came to an end after a reported spat with Jeannine Edwards, called his last game for the network on New Year's Eve, covering South Carolina's loss to Florida State in the Chick-fil-A Bowl and distracting the working professionals around him with his well-turned calves.

Franklin has yet to land with a competing network, but in the meantime, these kitchen floors aren't going to mop themselves.

Although it seems like an overreaction to fire him after he apologized, I've also heard this wasn't the first time this has happened. No idea if the rumors are true though.

I was under the impression he only had a few months left until retirement. What could he possibly get ? Lost wages for that time or a lot more?
