Whenever he comes on I change the channel or station. It has nothing to do with Bama, he is like a corpse.

Because the SEC HQ wants a Gump.

I don't watch the SEC (Gump) Network so it's not an issue.

There is no way a sane human being could watch that man for three hours.

What you don't get it's really nothing to do with him. His callers are the show. Period.

Any other talk show in America, they cut callers off that are stupid, idiotic etc... Not Finebaum, he let's them completely have the mic. And that's the show in a nut shell.

Because people like you keep giving him and his network free publicity.

Just do what I do every time I see Rosie O'Donnell, Barbara Steisand, or Hillary - change the channel.

The first time I ever listened to him was on that video on the front with Marcus Spears and he irritated the hell of me after less than 30 seconds. I can't understand people listening or watching that crap.

That is exactly what I do. I just can't listen to him or most of his callers.

This.

I get why ESPN brought his show to the SEC Network - people like listening to the tards call in all day (I love laughing at them). F-bomb is nothing more than the guy directing the three ring circus of callers. Southerners love stopping to look at a car wreck, and his callers deliver car wreck afer car wreck all day long.

Which is why I'm surprised they brought him on also as an analyst. He has nothing objective to offer doing analysis. He's not a reporter.

What should have happened was that he keeps his own show, he runs it himself, and he signs an exclusive contract to have it air on SEC Network. But ESPN wanted more than that, they wanted to syndicate it to ESPN radio as well. And once they were paying him for all that, they figured they might as well get more use out of him.

I agree. I don't think his show is cut out for a national scope. And certainly isn't cut out for a TV simulcast.

It is more amsuing on the radio. Listening the Gump and Hog callers pretty much confirms what everyone here already thinks of them.

I have never understood why TV Networks decided to life broadcast radio shows on TV. Its just not interesting to watch.

What's worse than listening to Finebaum on the radio? Having to watch him on TV. He's got to be the most passionless, monotone host on radio/TV.
