Apparently her contract is up in May and she’s going to Amazon. Between Amazon and Apple, I feel NFL viewing options are really going to change.  I’m good with that, so long as it doesn’t exclude people from watching certain games because they don’t have the right subscriptions.  
 

As for Kay leaving, I will miss her.  She pulled off the hoodie look very well and I thought mixed well with the other hosts.  I’ll still watch for Kyle 

BYE GINA!!

Your telling me the local news guy on channel 2 or 4 (if your in Buffalo), is making over 80k a year? Not saying your wrong, I’m just shocked if that’s true. I always felt that was maybe what the head anchors were making. I can’t believe a local news channel shells out that much for a position they could easily replace with the next person out of college who pursued journalism.

This anchor just retired here in Atlanta.  She was the 6:00 pm host.

 

This is her house worth about $2 million.  How does she afford that on a $80,000 salary?

There is a HUGE difference between the Atlanta and Buffalo markets. One is home to CNN and Turner Broadcasting. The other has... Empire Sports Network? lol

 

Local news folks in smaller towns like Buffalo probably do start out in the $75k-$90k range. But long-tenured anchors in big markets/national shows absolutely make well into 6 figures.

Yeah but Buffalo has Josh Allen and Atlanta doesn't.  So Buffalo wins.

Not surprised, feel she has been mailing it in for the last few months.  A few years back thought she was knowledgeable, then she turned into someone more intent on flipping between her hair down, or in a bun every other camera shot.  
 

Im good with her going, hasn’t added to the show for some time.  Bonnetta?  Don’t see it. Doesn’t have chemistry with Shrager and Brandt.  Seems too frenetic for the show, which is really Brandts schtik anyways.  
 

Colleen Wolfe seems to me to be the right replacement.  Probably sit a handful of hosts in the seat until they choose.  Anyone but Bonnetta. 

Couldn’t agree with this more!  Spot on.

For many years I would consume as much pregame programming as possible on Sundays, but at some point a switch from information to entertainment happened and I just lost interest.

 

 

Agreed. The older I get (I know I am old) I still love the game...but all the periphery NFL coverage is just excruciating... I feel dumb for watching it!

I looked it up once because I was interested in what she was paid.  She only made 80k/year hosting gmfb.  Not surprised to see her make a move.  She has name recognition and should strike while all these crazy announcing contracts are being handed out.

Ha ha. 80K in NYC. She must have 15 roommates in her studio apartment

Colleen Wolfe all day.  She’s better than Kay 💯 

I'm biased against Philly and she doesn't speak Polish, so I can't quite follow you there. I do like her or Jane Slater as replacement, though. I recently switched to Directv and they don't carry NFL Network, so doesn't really matter to moi.

That's not what she makes. It's an estimate by someone who has no idea. I also have no idea and would guess 300-500k.
