Part 8/10:
Given the pattern of dissatisfaction, the author posits that McAfee's tenure might be nearing its conclusion. With a contract just over two years into what was believed to be a five-year deal, signs of frustration on both sides could signal the end. When individuals are happy in their roles, they tend not to voice complaints or public dissatisfaction; McAfee’s social media posts and scandals suggest he’s increasingly discontented.
If both parties are unhappy—ESPN feeling constrained by his personality and McAfee feeling stifled—the likelihood increases that either he or the network might decide to part ways before the contract runs out.
