In a wide ranging interview with former ESPN Sports Center anchor Kenny Mayne, the boys from Ref The District mined a bunch of nuggets for the man known for his dry wit.

Among other things, Kenny talked about whether he would go back to ESPN if they offered a good deal but he said he's already done that.  He also talked a bunch about the behind the scenes at ESPN and his relationships with not only on-air hosts but also the producers that helped put together quality programming.

Kenny touched on his favorite charity www.runfreely.org which helps vets with prosthetics to say pain free from various injuries to include his own ankle which he broke while playing quarterback for UNLV.
