Is Booger Mcfarland a ESPN football analyst? If so he gets a small salary and if he does really good on his local ESPN affiliate appearances he'll get his own radio show or work his way up to being in the rotation for shows like College Football Featured, College Football Live, SEC Inside, SEC Film Room, College Football Daily etc etc etc

I know for sure Booger gets paid because Jordy said over the air to Booger there's a paid weekly appearance open if you want it

He's definitely on SECN stuff. He hosts a lot on NFL Radio.

I'm curious about these guys' deals with SiriusXM. A lot of them bleed over on three or four channels, so I'm guessing SiriusXM pays them, not necessarily the specific channel like NFL Radio, Bleacher, Mad Dog, College Sports Nation, etc.

If he's an ESPN analyst I don't think any of those other stations pay him. He does those appearances to build himself to get a radio show and/or ascend the hierarchy of ESPN's college football analyst(1.Kirk Herbstreit 2. Jesse Palmer ...)

I would agree with that if Booger only did radio bits here and there. For instance, Herm Edwards does a few minutes with Mad Dog every week. That is probably promotional and he doesn't get paid.

Booger is doing entire shows for three hours on NFL Radio. No way he isn't getting paid for that. Same with Matt Leinart on College Sports Nation. Fox must be cool with it. Linda Cohn has even done whole shows filling in for Mad Dog. Heck, Stephen A has a daily show on Mad Dog. It's weird that ESPN is OK with that.

Oh if they're a part time host thats different he definitely gets paid for that but probably not much. Stephen A's show on Mad Dog is probably more of a passion the money is probably a drop in bucket compared to what ESPN pays him.

I know for a fact that Bobby Hebert, Mike D and at the time Hokie all got a check to go on Saints on the Bayou..... the show that HTV produces. I'm sure Mike D is getting a check to go on with Matt.

Matt's pumping is nails on a chalkboard

But I have to say, after my 1st realtor couldn't sell my house for months, I finally gave in and called Darren James. Sold in a month, $2K under asking price which was a little better than I thought it would end up. And he is a good dude irl.

It would be highly unprofessional and somewhat illegal to pay for a guest to come a show. (TV is a whole different story and it wouldn't surprise me if guest were paid for appearances)

I know for a fact Mike comes on to promote himself and there isn't anything other than self promotion. Radio stations are stingy and hate losing money so paying for a guest is looked down upon.

She is pretty but her voice is annoying and her love for Bieber is nauseating!
