Man, ESPN is seriously messing with my world. First Simmons is nonrenewed, then they renew Van Pelt and as a result, he's off the radio show.

They are giving him the midnight Sportscenter and making it a talk show. Apparently they tried last year to get Seth Meyers for the same project, but missed.

Not sure what happens to the afternoon radio show, SVP and Russillo. Not sure if they just give it to Russillo or they add someone new.

Either way, it's a drag. I listen to the show on the way home from school. I will likely never see the midnight sportscenter. Drag.

Yet Colin Cowherd still has a job!?! They need to get rid of the right people. -- nm - Krusty May 12, 09:04 6
- Read the IM. They didn't get rid of SVP. It's actually a promotion of sorts. -- nm - volnelk May 12, 09:34
- You misspelled Don Le Batard. -- nm - Spawn May 12, 09:08 3
  - There's a long list of people that should be home writing a blog no one reads instead of on the air. -- nm - Krusty May 12, 09:11 2
    - Yeah, but at least Cowherd sticks with sports. Every time I try DL, he is talking about the most ridiculous non-sports stuff. -- nm - Spawn May 12, 09:13 1
      - I don't get him here too often. I will count myself lucky. Afternoons is all Michael Kay and it's too much. I'll go to WFAN often. - Krusty May 12, 09:17
- maybe the wrong people are just asking for it! -- nm - Stephen A Smith May 12, 09:07
