Simmons and Magary are coworkers now?

I think they're both freelancers as far as GQ is concerned.

As I was watching that clip, I didn't expect him to actually say "because he's not black". I thought was just going to infer it.

Imply. Aren't you a writer or something?

I was so happy when Colin Cowherd got canned from ESPN, but somehow I think the Dan Lebetard show is even worse

Le Batard is pretty smart by sportswriter standards

Yeah, I think he's pretty good, relatively speaking. Easily one of the most entertaining/listenable talking heads on ESPN these days. He's nowhere near being as bad as Cowherd.

It might be ok if they didn't think Stu Gotts was so funny (when he isn't).

I have no clue who Stu Gotts is, but that's not surprising as - other than live sports or the occasional sportscenter - i never watch espn. why put yourself through that? glutton for punishment?

Lebetard isn't all that bad, he's actually pretty good when compared to his peers on ESPN and the like. I'll always have a soft spot for him for when he sold his MLB HOF ballot to Deadspin. Edited December 16, 2015 by Cubswin11

Our local shows don't start until noon.

I'll never understand this.

 

its awful tv. there's a million other things to kill your time, why punish yourself.

[Sammy Sofa]

That bloc of ESPN late afternoon shows is always on a bunch of the TV's in my office. If I tried to change it I'd probably be killed.

this is so far the only acceptable answer. and just barely.

Dear god, I don't WATCH the show. I'm talking sports radio here

I mostly do, as I work during that time, but now and then I catch the last few minutes before the noon show and it's awful

[Sammy Sofa]

Yeah, I thought David was the only weirdo here who willingly subjected himself to sports radio on anything resembling a regular basis.

[Thurman Merman]

I listen to sports talk radio on my commute to and from work, and I enjoy it in the afternoon with B&B and Waddle and Silvy, but I am just not a fan of Mully and Hanley (or Mike and Mike). Anyone got any good talk radio alternatives for a morning commute? I used to have a good one when I lived in Michigan, but so far everything in Chicago Ive heard is crap.

[Derwood]

I really like most of our local sports radio programming (they're pretty anti-meatball) but am stuck with either Mike and Mike or ESPN Overnight on my way to work

[Ding Dong Johnson]

Listen to music you weirdos. The Interwebs will fill you in on the inane crap the radio nerds ramble on about.

Morning drive has very little music and mostly Morning Zoo shows. It's not a long enough commute to bother plugging in the phone for
