OT: Last LeBatard Show on ESPN
For those of you who listened to LeBatard over the years, today is his last show on ESPN.
It is crazy to think that this show started in 2004- was a mainstay in sports radio. I know a lot of people around here aren't big into sports talk, but this was the best national show on radio, bar none. While I was living on my own, their show got me through a lot of difficult times with the humor they provided after a shitty work day.
I hope they end up landing on Sirius or some other platform. ESPN decided they were much too "risky" for sports radio and decided to add more Greenberg (yay). There's no more room for creativity on regular networks- that's why guys like LeBatard are pushed to the fringes and have to start their own companies.

What in-depth analysis, on anything have you gotten from an espn show in the last decade?!

Exactly. Endless talk in September about who is the Heisman Trophy favorite, predicting the records for each NFL team, etc. What is the point of it all?

I honestly thought it may have been the worst sports show anyway, I found it annoying. I’m sure he’ll land on his feet!

Disagree with OP. Much prefer Dan Patrick.
