Espn wants to go another way albeit a scattered and inherently flawed way.. I’m a Keyshawn Johnson fan but he’s really better suited in small spurts as an analyst, same goes for Jason Williams..




I THINK their idea is to have "versatility". Meaning, they want Jay for college basketball and Keyshawn for pro football.....so, pay them to host the morning AND have them for the other duties. Just my guess. But, it is likely a cost saving measure to have dudes doing multiple things rather than "specialists" doing one thing each.

ESPN IS THE CNN OF SPORTS TELEVISION.

Never listened to or watched sports radio/TV. The whole concept seems to be to say or view something as controversial to kick off some fireworks and get people to call in and rant and rave. 2 min of Finebaum is 119 seconds too much.

If college football gets shut down for Covid, can ESPN even survive?

Golic Sr, was quoted several times, before his program with Wingo started, that he was close to retiring to Arizona. Doubt he's that upset now, and he's leaving with his son's career safe for now.

Screw ESPN, Disney, and all cable TV.

Cut them last month, saving $1500 per year.

Will mis some live sports on ESPN, but I can't send money to a company that gives racists people like J. Hill jobs and opportunities but crucifies any non-black person who says controversial things.

i don't think that's the case....

But Golic doesn’t plan on walking off into the sunset.

“I’m not retiring. I’m too young to retire. My wife won’t let me,” Golic said. “I’m back Monday and I’ll be back until July 31. I’ll talk more about it then, what I’m going to do. I’m still going to stay in the business. This was management’s choice to do it. Just like coaches, they have every right to do what they want to do. I would love to keep doing it, but not in the cards right now. We’ll see where it goes.”

I only watch ESPN when forced to for live sports.

Too mush politics and not enough sports.

now he can't even write a tell all book because they're holding his idiot kid hostage!

Didn't have a poster melting about Mike Golic on the PT board on my card for today, but here we are.

Melt away...

Wasn't he at ESPN since the 1990's? shite, he should thank them for being able to stay that long and getting paid just to blabble stupidity daily.

No shite. Doesn't matter who is the talking head on the shows, it's all the same BS. Make shite up to talk for two hours or make outlandish claims to talk for two hours.

I disagree about him not being upset. His wife was on Twitter yesterday saying she went to bed crying, woke up crying and cant stop crying. I would say that is a good indication of how Golic feels as well.

While this is true, the reason why Golic is out is because Greenberg >>>>> Wingo. It just wasn’t the same


This is true. Mike & Mike had chemistry on-air, and it was a great show. I listened to it on ESPN 2 while getting ready for work every morning, then in the car on the way to work. Golic & Wingo, I gave it a shot for close to 6 months, but it just wasn’t good. Trey Wingo is good on TV and as a fill-in on radio but being on the radio every day is not his thing.

I always thought Jeff Garlin and Mike Golic we’re separated at birth.

If football season is cancelled there won't be any sports radio. Stations will change formats if there aren't going to be any sports for at least 6 more months, there won't be anything to talk about. Moscona will be out of a job too, that's why he's so "sure" there will be football - his job depends on it.

I take it that English is your second language.

Keep at it, Sport, you'll get there.

Mike and Mike sucked something awful, and Golic and Wingo was worse. That dude made a crap pile of money to suck at something, and got his kid a great gig to boot.
