I'll say this for Josh Pate. His arrogant self-importance and inflation of his own influence is right up there with Skip and Stephen A. Remember, this is the guy who claimed he was consulting with Lane Kiffin daily during his move from Ole Miss to LSU.

Saturday's, during football season, I turn the game on around 1205 Est. Gameday has become unwatchable with Meatball McAfee, and Snoring Saban. Dont even bother watching all the other crap during the week.

You're right. They're not. It's why I don't watch ESPN, unless it's for a game. The days of Stuart Scott giving me the highlights with a few catch phrases are long gone.

Pate is a dumb guys idea of a smart guy.

He has some decent takes, but thinks far too highly of himself, and too many people treat him as some sort of all knowing CFB diety.

"Did you see what Pate said about the 12 team playoff? No I didn't and I don't give a frick what Josh Pate thinks about anything.

Pate is good looking at the games in season.

He does have a high opinion of himself and that can get nauseating.

The whole you won't believe what I am hearing then not give any info or details is very tiring as well.

Pate in his Auburn preview video said they are the sneaky team to be a high level SEC team with a G5 new coach and a G5 transfer qb.

For LSU? They might go 5-7, 6-6, or win the conference. Too many questions and unstable.

I unsubscribed and won’t watch again. Straight rage bait all the time from him.

A little McAfee every so often can be fun

Like every talk show it’s only interesting when the topic interests you. If you are a cfb fan you’ll enjoy his 12:00 hour show from today. More people need to give him a chance. All his episodes are readily available to stream for free. Just skip the parts you don’t care about.

The tight white t-shirt that shows his nipples, his use of performance enhancing drugs, and his need to wear a bra is also kind off off-putting.

I've gotten to where I'll watch YouTube a lot

I watch David Pollacks podcast on there

and Crain & Cone

I wasn't joking when I said years ago on this board that I only watch ESPN when actual football games come on

Pardon the interruption always was a shite show it's got high viewership because of the time slot

If McAfee's show was on the same time it would get probably the same numbers maybe even more

People forget Taylor Lewan threatened to rape a Michigan student after she accused his teammate of raping her. A true scumbag.

A TV show with Josh Pate is fine if you're trying to have an early morning/late night show like NFL Matchup with Ron Jaworski. He's not charasmatic at all, if you're trying to create a show to draw in large viewership numbers.


I have no clue why Pate gets so much hate around TD

I don’t agree with all of his talking points, but I usually understand his logic and how he arrives at his opinions. I really enjoy his show during CFB season

I hope Josh Pate doesn't forget his landscaping skills from west Georgia. He's going to need them.
