Skip Bayless leaving ESPN for NBC...
It's a good thing in my opinion. He had way too much face-time on ESPN for his stupidity.

I think that's because they have limited content because it's the NFL only

That said, I expect that to expand somewhat, at least with talent and new segments, once they move into Stan's $2.4 billion dollar palace.

Yeah, it's possible, although I watch those games with the sound off, as I do most NFL games.

Nessler's that good, IMO.

I've always wondered if Skip Bayless literally believes some of the stuff that has come out of his mouth and/or he has written, or if it is just a "shtick" that he pulls off. Or both...if he just kind of embellishes his actual thoughts to create a shtick. Whatever the case, I've caught some laughs from watching he and Stephen A. bicker with each other about things like...Tebow. It's been funny, IMO...and funnier yet, is the reaction(s) they get from people who watch them. I've seen a ton of people get their panties in a wad while watching Bayless be Bayless...and it's been funny as hell.

I really enjoyed Gus Johnson when he was on CBS but since he's moved to Fox, he's been invisible.

ESPN will be fine.

They keep hiring big boobs and hot bodies. They know What's up.

It's schtick.

Unfortunately being controversial and acting a buffoon makes you money. He knows what he's doing

I wouldn't shed a tear if ESPN bit it and just went away.

People keep saying he sucks but no network is throwing him to the street. So he must be doing what he is told pretty well.

Skip Bayless' schtick was sooooooooooo ****ing annoying. I had a lot of respect for Stephen A until he went to first take. Now he is just a more articulate Bayless. Hopefully that model goes and gets fisted.

Trico is good. I enjoy his commentary when he is a guest on radio a lot. Like an awful lot.

Pretty much all ESPN has for talent I Care what they have to say is Russillo. I like SVP most of the time, but I rarely catch him and there is only so much you can do with the sports center model.

LeBatard has some decent take if he's not too busy being reeruned in an effort to "not take himself too seriously."

ESPN sucks.
