OT ESPN the changes

[Mediocre Man]

I get people are different and all, but basically terminating Golic sr is asinine. He’s relatable and in the FUCKING BROADCASTING HALL OF FAME.

New lineup features Keyshawn Johnson and Jay Williams in the am and a half hour of Le Batard going away to make room for Mike FUCKING Greenberg

Listening to LeBetard makes me wanna shove an ice pick in my ear.

I've not much liked any of ESPN's personalities, at least not since the 1990s. I liked the old school SportsCenter with Dan Patrick, Keith Olbermann, Stuart Scott, etc. At this point, for me, it's re-arranging deck chairs when they make changes.

I'm still amazed that theres any viewers to any of those shows.

I remember a time when I gave a shit about the talent on ESPN, or ESPN radio.

Must've been 20+ years ago.

I don't think I've watched ESPN in 10 years. I do miss Chris Berman though. He's the real Boomer. Baseball Tonight and Web Gems were always my favorite.

The only reason to watch ESPN anymore in the age of Twitter is for live sports. The whole morning after show concept is dead. Who even watches Sportscenter anymore?

I loved the mike and mike show back in the day. Greenburg and Golic were a great paring for radio I thought.

I'll say, the ONLY time I watch sportscenter nowadays is after the Blazers have a big win, like a national TV type win, and we're going to be the lead. I watch 2 minutes, and then change the channel.

Probably more like 40+ years for me. I just remember that I didn't like Dick Enberg when he was on NBC, CBS and then ESPN.

God I know. My coworker used to listen to ESPN radio every day on our 1.5 hour commute. Such torturous trash. Lebetard and his crew are always laughing HYSTERICALLY...at nothing. None of them are even remotely funny so they just talk loud and fake laugh to make the show seem wacky and exciting.

I miss Barry Melrose and the NHL on ESPN.
