I can't see him doing anything other than what he said, hug the woman. This is probobly a case of a disgruntled dumb bitch that wanted to try to cause trouble and sue for money........a la Duke Lacrosse

HA, Hammerin' Hank?
Anyway - the 'word on the street' is that Reynolds has a long history at ESPN of hitting on girls, especially PAs and others 'lower' than him on the ladder. It's never been a problem before because it's never been acted on, but apparently this time he hugged the wrong PA and she filed a complaint and got him canned. Deadspin has a lot on this.
He was probably the most personable of their on-air guys, though, and definitely was held in the highest regard by outsiders - in that regard, even though I disagreed with a lot of his actual analysis, I'm sorry to see the dude go. What a bizarre situation . . . it sounds like he got fired for something innocuous based on a repuatation in the past. That's awkward.
