Rowand44 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 11, 2013 -> 11:40 AM) My ESPN rankings (worst to best): Skip/Stephen A - the worst in the history of sports. Mike & Mike - fine in a pinch, prefer M&H (though Hanley is f***ing terrible. The best is Mully & anyone else), the schtick about Golic being a real man's man and Greenie being a girly man (or one being the dumb jock versus the smart student) is terrible and old and makes me want to punch my radio. I also despise whoever does that voice that they put on all their pre-tapped stuff. Cowherd - always takes the most controversial position on an issue to be different. He's the less annoying/punchable Jim Rome, but still not good. HUGE GAP SVP and Russillo - easily the best. SVP also gets credit for getting Russillo the respect he deserves from ESPN and not being a me first asshole. Not a fan of Stephen A at all but Skip is in his own category of awful, that guy is an egotistical moron who can't even speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodAsGould Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I like Mike & Mike, my issue with them you listen for 15 mins and you heard just about all they are going to say for the next 4-5 hours however long they are on the air.

They're a morning drive show. The expectation is that the average commuter is only listening to them for 20-30 minutes, and then they try to catch the commuters in other time zones.

I wonder if Skip even believes in anything he says. I think he's paid to be an act with crazy, idiotic ideas that gets people talking about him, his show, & his network. ESPN marketing at its finest.

Harry Chappas Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 10, 2013 -> 10:44 PM) Did anyone hear Jamie Dukes on Mully & Hanley? He said that watching the Bears it looked exactly like Lovie was coaching and absolutely nothing was different. Then he insinuated not only was Lovie fired for a racist reason, but that is also the reason why he isn't employed. Today Laurence Holmes got into a little twitter war with him over it, he was sincerely pissed off about it. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/09/10/jam...nt-than-lovies/ I heard that and was astounded that M&H actually let him talk without questioning him. It was one of the worst pieces of coverage I had ever heard. I actually thought it was a caller that they just let ramble on. He was going on about all of the new players and how now they have all of these weapons. Never once did they ask him why Lovie was unable to get offensive minded people into the organization or grow any talent. The Bengals are a good team and would have beaten the Bears by 20 last year, yet there was Dukes talking about how much better the Philly win over Washington was what a f***ing moron.

He was wowed by Sanchez having the "it" factor. Everyone misses on quarterbacks...the Jets obviously did, and I am sure many other teams would have taken him early.

I don't want to come off as a Sanchez defender, but it seems like his offensive weapons have been taken away one by one and replaced with far inferior players. He went from a WR core of Braylon Edwards, Santonio Holmes, Brad Smith with Dustin Keller as a TE to a bunch of crap now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
