Disappointing news about the show

quote:

Not sure who they'll get to replace SVP. But ive enjoyed Adnan Virk on the show at times. He's kind of built in the same mold as SVP, nerdy but hip. Sounds good on the air, can fill dead time because he loves to talk.



Agree with the Adnan comments. It seemed like him and Russillo had chemistry on air when he filled in. I always got the impression that espn was grooming Adnan for a radio spot.

I don't think the show would make too much of a decline with him filling SVP's role.

Would much rather him than someone like Coachmen, Sedano, etc...

Coach's only redeeming quality is when people ask him about wrestling stories from back in the day....other than that he sucks.

It goes in this order:

Jim Rome Show
Dan Patrick Show
everything else

I will at least give SVP & Rusillo credit that they are at the top of the "everything else" heap. Decent show but not irreplaceable. Cowherd has his moments but for the most part is a blowhard. Mike & Mike used to be a staple for me now haven't listened to them in a year or more. For the most part ESPN Radio is boring and just a shill for the network. The independants like Rome and Patrick are better because they have the freedom to say what they want.

Ah ok. I forgot that SVP starts at 1 in the Eastern Time Zone so I'm regrettably listening to Colin Cowherd

I'm getting close to being completely done with Cowherd

I don't know why I'm so picky, but when it comes to people with with weird voices or speech impediments, it's like nails on a chalkboard

and his smugness has worn on me through the years

All of his callers sound like they need vocal surgery and a breath mint.

Me too! But I still listen to him, mainly because he's so dramatic at times.

Solo sportscenters suck, unless he plans on changing the whole format of it.

Would have been much better with he and Levy every night.

I'm interested if they are doing some sort of late night show. That could be something I'd watch, but he better bring Outsider and Stanford Steve.

his analogies trying to compare real life and sports are just so fricking terrible and usually just serve as a vessel for him to tell you how great he is. He's a wannabe elitist.
