The Dan Lebatard radio show or Highly Questionable with Lebatard and Bomani Jones?

Let me start off with this. I usually don't watch ESPN during the day. I'm off today and just watched highly questionable for the first time ever. Man it's just so awkward and choppy! And Lebatard's dad is mentally slow.

I thought Lebatard's "sports" radio show was tough to stomach but DAMN! The TV show is brutal. Why is ESPN so high on Lebatard?

Isn't the radio show televised on one of ESPN's channels as well?

Dan Lebatard has grown on me. I used to hate watching him but now I know he really isn't the kind of guy to talk about the ins and outs of sports. He's more of a big picture kind of guy, and I like that. He can say some pretty insightful stuff at times.

Bomani isn't really bad. I haven't watched him in a long time, though. I don't know if he's a member of BLM or something.

anything with bomani for more than 3 minutes is harder to stomach.

ESPN radio in its entirety sucks really bad

There was this dipshit at work that insisted on listening to it all day for about a week

If you didn't know any better they just report on themselves. Stupid topic no one cares about gets a lot of play on Mike and Mike in the morning and then every other stupid show for the rest of the day coincidentally harps on the same stupid topic.

The amount of relevant sports content on ESPN radio is abysmal. It's a dumpster fire.

Both of them seem like smart enough guys, but down here in SB, we only have the ESPN radio station, and LeBatard is always on during my short drive to class. It seems more like frathouse hijinks than sports talk. I usually switch it off before the second stoplight.

I honestly don't know why people don't like either show. Lebatard's radio show is awesome.

Highly Questionable is far worse, thanks to the Bomani factor. Dude is awful

I cant stand Lebatard show on ESPN radio. Especially when the Messican fella says
"Es Stugatz."

I see that he is intelligent and he could be among the best if he actually talked about sports.

I don't hate Lebatard. I just hate his shows. Does that make sense?

thats not the point of his shows. he talks about the social effect that sport has over actual sport and both his radio show and highly questionable succeed

Right. But it's a SPORTS show. Not Dr Phil or Oprah.

Give me numbers, stats, inside information, and interviews. You know, the things that make up sports?

At least shorten his radio show. It's just too much of Lebatard on his high horse talking about racism and sexism.
