ESPN to End Around the Horn in 2025

ESPN's long-running sports debate show 'Around the Horn' is set to conclude in the summer of 2025 after 23 years on air, as reported by Ryan Glasspiegel of the New York Post. Initially launched in 2002 and hosted by Max Kellerman until 2004, the show has been led by Tony Reali, featuring a rotating panel of prominent sportswriters. Despite its popularity and significant impact on sports media, ESPN has not publicly explained the decision to cancel the program. The show has been a key part of ESPN's afternoon lineup, influencing the format of sports discussions on television. As the end approaches, many fans and former participants have taken to social media to express their nostalgia and appreciation for the show. ESPN is expected to work on a replacement program for the time slot currently occupied by 'Around the Horn.'
