Sean McManus has had little time to reflect on his nearly 27 1/2-year tenure leading CBS Sports. Over the past month, there has been the men’s NCAA Tournament and this weekend’s coverage of the Masters.
If anything, McManus has approached the last six months since he announced his retirement with a greater sense of gratitude. McManus’ final event as CBS Sports chairman is at the tournament that is synonymous with the network.
“I’ve tried to soak them all in even more than I usually do and appreciate the incredible opportunities that I’ve had,” McManus said during an interview last week with The Associated Press. “Some is looking back, but looking back with nothing but pride and fondness for both the events I’ve been lucky enough to cover and the team I’ve assembled.”
McManus, who turned 69 in February, started to consider retirement two years ago. With CBS carrying the Super Bowl this year along with the NCAA Tournament and the Masters, McManus and CBS President/CEO George Cheeks agreed the timing was right. David Berson, president of CBS Sports for over 10 years, is McManus’ hand-picked successor.
