Salisbury also had a huge problem with guys like Emmitt Smith getting the job for NFL Countdown when Emmitt couldn't and still can't put 3 words together in the English language.
On February 26, 2008 Salisbury's contract was not renewed by ESPN. Salisbury suggested, according to Profootballtalk.com, that he was unhappy with his salary and status compared to those analysts who were more prominent players in their NFL careers. Salisbury explained, saying that “I’d grown tired of being punished for not being an NFL superstar,” He also complained that “analysts who don’t work as hard as me, don’t prepare as hard as me, and don’t have my resume were making more than me just because of their ability to throw or catch a football.”

Its all about ratings and allowing name recognition to raise the profile of your show. Cant take it personal, Sean. His bullying of that skinny little wimp Clayton grew pretty uncomfortable.
Oh well, some second rate Fox show will scoop him up eventually
