“Around Hornet” will leave the air waves later this month, which means some of the show’s panelists are making their last performance in the coming weeks.
It includes Kate Fagan, who appeared for the last time on the show on Thursday. Fagan, a long -time author and reporter, also played College Basketball in Colorado.
Fagan has appeared on the show since she was first hired by ESPN in 2012. She left the network in 2018, but has still appeared on the program.

Fagan was determined to be the “winner” of Thursday’s show against Jemele Hill, who returned to the show since leaving the network in 2018. The winner of the episode typically delivers a short monologue and Fagan said “to be on this show has been a privilege and a platform.”
With Thursday marking her last episode, she used the platform to request transient athletes.
“I know it’s my last time on it and I would say something worth this platform, and it’s Trans Kids deserving to play sports,” she said. “Think about what you remember from your time playing sports. Night-seven percent of it finds that jersey for the first time, your favorite number, community, joy, these high-fives.
“That’s the moment you have a good game with a teammate. That’s the feeling of belonging. And it doesn’t know gender. Trans kids deserve the same thing everyone else does.
“Sports are joy. Sport is humanity. And the more people who have it, the better.”

There is no law or order that prohibits transnry children from participating in sports. President Donald Trump signed an executive order in February prohibiting biological men who identify themselves as girls or women to compete against biological women.
ESPN announced the show’s cancellation in March, and shortly afterwards, former panelist Jay Mariotti, who was a regular on the show, said until an arrest at home in 2010, in an interview, the show was canceled because it Went “woke up.”
“I think what John Skipper wanted from some of the shows was that he started installing people on the show that became anti-Trump,” Mariotti told Front Office sports.
In a recent post on his own substack, “Around Hornet ended a long time ago – when I left the show,” Mariotti repeated that some of the panelists went “woke up” while others were “on dope.”
