Be honest, up until yesterday, you had no clue who ESPN Announcer Robert Lee was? 

But, thanks to ESPN shooting themselves in the foot, many people learned about Lee yesterday. 

As FTVLive told you, ESPN has decided to pull Lee from covering a Virginia football game this season due to the simple fact his name is Robert Lee. 

While this story has been a nightmare for ESPN, for Lee...maybe not so much. 

USA Today writes that Broadcast Agent Dana Adams, however, said Lee could come out ahead in all of this.

“From an agent’s perspective, I think it’s fair to say more people know Robert Lee works at ESPN today than they did yesterday,” said Adams, who does not represent Lee. “You know what they say, ‘Any publicity is good publicity. Just spell my name right.’ The fact everyone knows his name now isn’t a bad thing.”
