heres the scoop, found it on fantasyinfocentral.com...
Between contracts
Max Kellerman, off the air as Around the Horn host and boxing analyst since his ESPN contract expired last week, might wind up at Fox Sports Net. "We've admired Max's work for some time," Fox senior vice president Lou D'Ermilio said. ESPN has a right to match another offer for Kellerman.
From LA Times 2/14/04 written by TJ Simers (sounds like TJ must have been banned from Around the Horn or something):
USA TODAY reported that Max Kellerman, the host of "Around the Screaming Horn," had parted ways with ESPN. Kellerman, who reportedly sought an increase to about $850,000 annually to embarrass himself five times a week, might now wind up at Fox Sports Net. I presume parking cars.
There's no way ESPN would match anything near that 850 mark. I don't even think that loudmouth Stuart Scott makes that much (that's why he has to resort to doing those 'boo-yah' commericals). Maybe Kellerman can end up doing some boxing commentary on HBO, since George Foreman quit his post and started training again for a money fight against a fake champion.
