Wow, this guy is bad and absolutely unfunny. It's like he's trying way too hard.

His show is quite enjoyable if you can separate his politics from your viewpoint

bingo.

Judging by the comments he receives on twitter, many people have an extremely hard time separating his politics from his sports opinions. The show isn't nearly as bad as some folks try to make it out to be.

I like the show. It's not DVR worthy, but I watch it when I catch it. He calls people out for acting retarded.

I like it. It reminds me of the good ol' days of Sportcenter when they'd goof off a lot more ("They're not gonna get 'em!").

I would tend to agree with this but, if worn out schtick is cause for dislike, how does Chris Berman still have a job ?

Olbermann was good a couple decades ago. He's just not worth watching regardless of politics.

His political show was a huge troll job. I don't think even he believed half the hatred he spewed. Olbermann and Patrick were very good together years abo though on ESPN. I'm surprised they gave him another shot as he burned bridges when he left last time.

Better question, how does the the ESPN 2 morning rotation survive this long.
