It's embarrassing that ESPN has set him up as the SEC representative to the nation.

He definitely fits in with everything else at that network though. He's as much a troll as Bayless or Screamin A.

Finebaum is the original troll, it's no coincidence he looks like one

Finebaum and a Birmingham Tv Sports Director, Rick Karle, have a huge man crush on Saban. They will do anything to spend time with Saban. In addition, Finebaum hates LSU. His hate for LSU came from a one year position he held at the Shreveport Journal (no longer in print) he was assigned the LSU beat. He hates Louisana and LSU. That combined with his man crush of Saban means he will always talk bad about LSU because they will challenge his belove Nick Saban for wins and. Championships.

This whole post was spot on. I know in the grand scheme of things it all comes down to ratings (because ratings generate $), but I'm kind of disheartened that the SEC would agree to putting Finebaum on the SEC Network. It makes me wonder how much power the SEC has over shows on the network.

The only thing I'll give Finebaum is that he is a good interviewer when he wants to be.
