NO MORE LISA G ON MNF
ESPN.com
Michele Tafoya has been hired by ABC Sports to replace Lisa Guerrero as the sideline reporter for "Monday Night Football" telecasts, the network announced Monday.
Tafoya, who spent last football season as ESPN's on-site reporter at "Monday Night Football" games, joined ABC Sports two years ago as a courtside reporter on ABC's NBA telecasts. She will work her second NBA Finals for ABC Sports in June.
This news isn't shocking at all.
I sensed that Lisa Guerrero wasn't going to be on Monday Night Football too long. She isn't fit to be a sideline reporter, quite frankly. Unfortunately, this means that she will not be on the sidelines at Seahawks Stadium December 6 when the Seahawks host the Cowboys on MNF.
I thought that ABC was going to hire Jill Arrington (she was signed by ESPN/ABC earlier this year), but I was wrong. Tafoya's solid, so it's not a bad deal at all.
It's May 3. And you know what?
I'M READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL.
GO SEAHAWKS!!!
