[QUOTE="IlliniFaninHoosierLand, post: 1548345, member: 85743"] McNeil sent out the following tweet about ESPN's Maria Taylor, who was the sideline reporter for last night's game between the Steelers and Giants. Here's what he said: [IMG]https://awfulannouncing.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/94/2020/09/dan-mcneil-maria-taylor.png[/IMG] The tweet stayed up for about 30 minutes before he deleted it. Here is Taylor's response: [MEDIA=twitter]1305719693207121921[/MEDIA] Honestly McNeil was on borrowed time as it is. This was at least the 4th or 5th chance he has had at the Score and the show with him and Parkins was tough to listen to.
