I've become less and less a fan of DP over the past year or so but it's going to suck to see him go. Especially since I listen to ESPN Radio most of the time at work. I'm afraid to see who they replace him with on the radio airwaves. Hopefully they'll just give Cowherd 3 extra hours. Not gonna happen but it should.

As long as they don't just give to KO... I hate that guy and I have never figured out why Dan has him on every day. For that reason alone I'm not sad to see this.

And please don't let Steven A. Smith have it. I can barely take 10 minutes of him. "At the end of the day" :roll:

I can't stand KO. I'd rather be KO'd than listen to him for 3 hours per day.

Amen.

BRING BACK TONY KORNHEISER!

I was sad to see Tony K. leave. I was convinced they would never successfully replace him - The Herd is now my favorite ESPN Radio show. I was sad to see Kusilias <sp?> leave the Sports Bash, they still haven't found anyone suitable to fill that spot. I'm gonna really suck to see Dan leave.

I don't remember ESPN before Dan. He was the absolute best at SportsCenter. His show is still one of my favorites (I even like Olberman).

I always like when Schlereth fills in on Mike and Mike, maybe he could hold down his own show?

Ditto. By far it's my favorite, too.

Kusilias was decent but I wasn't heartbroken when he left. I don't even listen to that timeslot anymore. John Sible (sp?) sucks and if it's not him, it's usually someone else that sucks.

I like Schlereth as well.

In my opinion, Mike & Mike and The Herd are the only shows worth listening to these days. ESPN needs to do something about that.

Oh...and by the way...
I'm gonna really suck to see Dan leave.
WTF, Spall? :lol:

Listen, I really like him ok? That was in no way a typo or Freudian slip. I love Dan Patrick. I don't think it gets said enough, why can't a man tell another man he loves him without it being gay? I love him, and I don't want him to go.

<End semi-homo-erotic rant.>

You're right. I'd totally give DP a handy.
