Switch to podcasts, much better as you essentially remove the commercial breaks. I particularly enjoy the Dan Patrick show, he is exceptional in my opinion.

I agree, really sick of ESPN. Where do you guys go to read about sports? Fox sports is all videos. That gets old really quick.ESPN radio gets on my nerves but I do still use their app for online reading. You can pick your sport and then choose NEWS.

I’m on the other side here. Although I agree with the comments about Golic Jr, I actually think Wingo is better than Greenie. Greenberg seemed to take himself too seriously. Many times I’d think he needs to lighten up, this is only sports. Wingo seems to get that.I can see that.. He often was trying to be sports poor man's Seinfield. and some days it got on me..
As a father I can respect that Golic Sr, was a driving force to get his son a great job, career. Maybe the kid will grow into it, but for now. I haven't met anyone that really likes what he brings to the show.

Spain and Fitz are unbearable for me thanks to Spain's constant righteousness and social justice crusading.

He’s such a nice guy and I’m happy for him that he got the national gig, but I hate it that it broke up my favorite duo. Braden Gall is now partnered with some yahoo from Philadelphia that I can’t stand and their show has become much more corporate.

I am surprised no one noted Golic and Wingo got the hook. Well, not entirely, but, they have been relegated to ESPN News rather than ESPN2 on t.v.
"Get Up" is taking over their time slot. It will feature Mike Greenberg, Jalen Rose, and Michelle Beadle. Looks like a better combo than Golic and Wingo. I have to imagine Golic is a bit miffed to lose his slot to his former partner.
Hope it is good. It has got to be better that Golic and Wingo.

I thought Greeny's show was originally supposed to start in January.
Golic and Wingo definitely lack the chemistry of Mike & Mike

I didn't mention it because I didn't realize it because I've been paying basically no attention to Golic and Wingo.
I might try the other new show. I like Beadle.

Same here. I had no idea. Ever since I started noticing all of the stupid product placement ads, during the Golic and Wingo show, I've quit listening. I imagine Greenberg's new show will be much the same so I suspect I will also have no interest in it.
In the AM, I've been listening to Cris Carter's show on Fox. At lunch, I listen to Chris Childers and Rick Neuhisel on ESPN College. I listen as I commute so it's not throughout the entire day.

Mike & Mike was lightning in a bottle. For whatever reason the two were great together and might not be any good separately. Clearly, Greenberg has a lot more on air talent than Goldburg so it'll be interesting to see if his new show is a success.

The show is terrible and Golic Jr makes it worse

I watched the new show this morning. It is a lot like Sports Nation. We will see how it develops.

I'm already at or on my way to work by then, so I'll probably miss it.
