No one's safe.Apparently, long-time writer and columnist Jean-Jacques Taylor and senior writer Sam Gwynne are leaving The Dallas Morning News and going over to ESPN Dallas. Basically, the World Wide Leader's Dallas contingent is the Triple A affiliate of the News having hired Calvin Watkins, Richard Durrett and Tim McMahon.
Gwynne, frankly, was a ghost. I never noticed his byline and he apparently wrote a couple of pieces and largely shared bylines. He won't be missed.
And, I'll be honest, no one is going to miss JJT from Dallas' only daily newspaper.
Taylor is the worst sports columnist The Dallas Morning News has ever paid, and this is the same outlet that pays Tim Cowlishaw.
If you wanted half-hearted, half-assed thoughts on sports and athletes, you could turn to Taylor to give you 1,000 words of drivel that didn't say anything and was devoid of any real emotion and opinion. Taylor tried to assume the role of Kevin Blackistone and those were shoes Taylor was never up to even trying. I was often floored after reading Taylor's columns in disbelief that he gets paid probably a nice paycheck to say absolutely nothing.
Both guys -- especially Taylor -- can easily be replaced. Will it be internal or external?
