Mike and Mike breaking up

[siberian khatru]

Personally, I disliked them, a lot. Used to listen for an hour in the morning before 810's Border Patrol came on, but every show was: Patriots, LeBron, Cowboys, Jets, Coach K, LeBron, Cowboys, Belichick, Steph Curry, Izzo, Brady.

I tuned back in the Monday after the Royals won the WS. I swear to God, this is how the show opened: "Congrats to the Kansas City Royals for winning the World Series, what a nice team you have. But we've got to talk about how the Mets blew the series, literally handed it to them ..." And then they spend the next 10 minutes talking about the Mets before moving on to the NBA.

Anyway, good riddance. I hate all non-sports-events ESPN anyway.




Sources: Greenberg leaving Mike & Mike for new ESPN TV program

The end of one of the longest-running partnerships in sports radio is coming soon.

SI.com has learned via multiple sources that ESPN executives are moving forward with the plan to shift Mike Greenberg—one half of the long-running Mike & Mike radio show on ESPN Radio—into a new role as the lead host of a television show that would air in the mornings on ESPN. The new show will have elements of SportsCenter—which currently airs at that time—as well as a traditional morning show. It is expected to be based in New York City. The new program would put an end to end to Greenberg’s on-air partnership with Mike Golic, which began in October 1998. Mike & Mike currently airs weekdays on ESPN Radio from 6–10 a.m. ET and is simulcast on ESPN2.

Via an ESPN spokesperson, Greenberg and ESPN executives Traug Keller, Burke Magnus and Connor Schell declined comment.
