The story of ESPN’s firing of  Ron Franklin looks like it will continue (original story).

Franklin has filed a lawsuit against ESPN for wrongful termination.  He confirmed that in an interview with Game On! from his home city of Austin, Texas.

Franklin, who worked for ESPN for 25 years, declined to comment on how much he’s seeking in damages or details of the lawsuit.

ESPN fired the veteran college football and basketball announcer after he allegedly called sideline reporter Jeannine Edwards “sweet baby” and “a–hole” during an argument during bowl game preparation. ESPN yanked him from coverage of the Fiesta Bowl that he was supposed to work with Edwards.
