BRISTOL, Conn. -- A book, which gives an inside view of the Bristol-based ESPN, has folks in town seeing red. The book," Those Guys Have All The Fun," describes the sports station as a "sex-crazed frat house in the middle of nowhere."It's the nowhere part that city officials and residents have taken issues with.The book paints a pretty sordid picture of the early days of the ESPN with X-rated excerpts and steamy gossip, which one former ESPN executive attributes to the fact that the company is located in Bristol.Steve Bornstein told the author of the book that part of the problem is that Bristol is "one hundred miles from civilization.""After hearing the excerpts I was quite dismayed," said Bristol Mayor Art Ward.Ward said ESPN has been a great corporate partner and an asset to the city. He points out that the disparaging remarks came from a former, not current employee. "The personnel is no longer with ESPN, nor do we care why they're no longer with them. We're actually really grateful that ESPN has opted to have Bristol as their home," Ward said.Mike Soltys, an ESPN spokesperson, also said the Bristol-bashing was done by former employees."The current employees, and we have thousands of them, like living in central Connecticut and look at our location as a positive," Soltys said.
I can 110% motherfucking honestly say that this will be one of the first books in a long time that I read cover to cover. This type of shit revs my engine. Everyone thinks I have this hate for ESPN but I really don't, the whole operation over there in Bristol just fascinates me. You don't mix former athletes, young female talent, veteran newscasters, the worldwide leader in sports and not have a giant clusterfuck of extramarital affairs, dick yanking, ass grabbing and nipple tweeking. It's kind of like a carriage drive bash. All walks of life come out and everybody wants to close on top.
