Popular ESPN reporter Erin Andrews is leaving the network, possibly for a job with Fox Sports.
The Twitter population, particularly the male portion, is not at all happy about Andrews being off the air, even for a little while.

If Erin Andrews doesn't announce the home run derby, I'm not watching.

Calm down, guys! You do know you can change the channel, right?
One man has his sports priorities firmly in place, however:
Watch college football RT @_JVTs_: What will men that are watching college football on ESPN going to do now that Erin Andrews is leaving?

And another notes that it’s been quite the week for status changes among celebrities:
It always comes in 3's: Ann Curry gets canned, Tom Cruise gets served, and now Erin Andrews leaves ESPN. Must be the heat.

Andrews did get an interesting tweet from Rich Eisen, also a former ESPN talker, who’s now the main man on the NFL Network:
@ErinAndrews Congrats and welcome to the green grass.

Hmm. Fox or NFL? Wherever she goes, Andrews obviously won’t have to worry about building an audience. The Lost Boys will follow.
