Johnson wants to expand his game

May 19, 2011 - 3:51 PM

---Gus Johnson felt sad that CBS, his home for 16 years, had declined to match the offer he accepted from Fox; excited about the future; relieved that an unexpected turn under the microscope had ended.

“I’m tired of thinking. Weighing. Grappling with my thoughts. You’re giving up something to gain something,'' He said. "But you’re still giving up something. I’m leaving something that I love. And I love that thing. That was my thing. Sometimes, you’ve just got to walk away.”
