Once again, in the face of some awful news at ESPN, Bob Ley sums everything up perfectly.

The Worldwide Leader announced a round of about 150 employee layoffs, and Ley closed Thursday’s Outside the Lines with a message to specific producer — David Brofsky, who had worked with Ley on OTL — that he said applied to everyone who lost his or her job. He mentioned the “parade of people” coming to say goodbye to Brofsky in his office.

“There are dozens of such Bristol tales from yesterday. If you have any thoughts of any of these people, please include the words ‘Thank you.'”

Tony Reali, the host of Around the Horn, also paid tribute to Brofsky on his show.
