Chiefs_5627 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Big rips, he always had that snarky demeanor followed by that smirk at the end of the segment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaximusGluteus Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I'll never forget when Sean Salisbury questioned his football knowledge because he had never played, and John said "I got about as much playing time as you did". Salisbury had nothing to say after that. Was so awesome. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salisbury had nothing to say after that. Was so awesome. John would usually get him with a nice burn. My favorite was Sean saying "You never even played in the NFL!!!" and John retorting "Neither did you!!!". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefenseWinsChampionships Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) Sports is apart of my childhood this is sad. Death is the only thing I hate about life. Thnx you for all the ESPN memories over the years John Clayton one of our favorites you're one of the legends. 🙏😥🙏 Edited March 19, 2022 by DefenseWinsChampionships Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awsi Dooger Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Very sad. John Clayton was so unique he shouldn't be allowed to die. For some reason I always thought he'd restore to a prominent role somewhere. BTW, I knew Sean Salisbury in college. He hasn't changed in 40 years. Everything was a double entendre locker room caliber joke or a similar physical prank in the locker room itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingOfNewYork Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 I can’t count how many times I went to sleep with ESPN on only to wake up in the middle of the night and John Clayton is on my television watching over me like a sports guardian angel. Rest in Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
