> “The CBS Evening News is known for its tradition of journalism. It’s awesome to be part of that. I’m honored and thrilled. I was comfortable with my jobs in sports. But this was a knock-your-socks-off offer.”
> “I’m going to miss sports, especially the friendships. And I’ll miss the storytelling on ‘Real Sports.’ But it was time for a change.”
