ARTICLE: Dan Patrick strongly considering leaving ESPN

[J-DOG]

can't listen to his show for longer than 30 minutes, bores the hell out of me.

Agree.
I for one would love it if he left.
Same for Berman...those acts have way out lived thier self life.
If ESPN would stop putting self promoting hosts for thier shows and more content driven material they would be better off. And I mean REAL NEWS not fabricated crap like I see half of the time.

I love DP on SportsCenter. Can't STAND his radio show. There's more dead air and repetition in ten minutes of Dan Patrick than in an hour of almost anyone else in sports radio. He has some great one-liners, true. But his vacant pauses and the way he pounds every decent story he introduces makes his show as tedious as grinding teeth. Give me Eric Kusilius any day.

agreed. eric k. was gold.. still can't imagine why he got replaced.. i can't even listen to the Sports Bash anymore its so bad.

He left for a NASCAR gig on ESPN2...

I don't watch NASCAR, but knowing him he will do his research and make it interesting. He is enormously talented...

Dan Patrick is one of the few ESPN reporters I like. However, hosting TPIR is a big deal. I would prefer Patrick over Rosie anyday of the week.

He and Olbermann together were as good as ESPN ever got, and there was a time when it was greatness...

Do you realize how long it's been since Olbermann was at ESPN?

You are talking ancient history.

Get rid of Berman and Screaming A. Smith and keep Dan.

Why BSPN let David Aldridge go for Screaming A I'll never know.

For every person that hates Slava A. Smith, theres someone who loves him. I personally think he is a little over the top at times, but he is entertaining. Chris Berman on the other hand.......................painful to the ears.

I wish ESPN would go a little younger instead of all these fogies (no offense CBZ40) on air.

I think it would be cool if they had Max Kellerman. provided he knew not to discuss boxing.

michael smith is great

When he's not being a Patriots or Commanders homer.
