First it was Rick Reilly of Sports Illustrated. Then it was Mark Fainaru-Wada of the San Francisco Chronicle. Now ESPN has added T.J. Quinn of the Daily News to its inflated payroll. Quinn’s reasoning for leaving the news business:

There is a world of difference between what TV pays you and what newspapers pay you. You hate that to be a deciding factor, but I have three kids. That alone isn't enough, but it pushes you in that direction.

On the plus side, the overpriced burgers at the ESPN Zone are ultimately funding award winning sports journalism.
