Looks like not much interest on this topic but I agree with MW I liked him when he did sports.

Not much interest because he is bland. Good luck in retirement, try the spicy chicken.

The bigger angle is who are they gonna replace him with?

Representation of what?

I would be nice if they replaced him with with a real journalist that had a good on-air presentation.

Davey Lew won’t be easily replaced. He anchors, reports, and hosts big events both on and off TV. He is well known in this market. Those aren’t roles that someone can just step in and fill instantly.
And not that it matters to viewers or the people in this forum, but he’s a really good guy. He’ll be missed in Broadcast House and beyond.

That's one thing that's obvious... he's a really nice guy. I've always like him.

I agree 100% but in today's world talent and ability dont always seem to be the #1 requirement.
