      Personally, I think Greeney is a terrible listen, there were several times I thought Golic would haul off and clock him.
      I would have paid cash money to witness that.

      Greeney got that gig because he had a great reputation as a journalist, and he knows people in high places over at the Bristol Ct. Clown College.

      ESPN still hasn't learned that a good columnist/writer rarely translates into a good on-air personality.

        I was at Florida a decade before her. When I was at Florida, it was voted the number one party school by Playboy magazine. There were so many beautiful women on campus, if you threw a stick, there was a beautiful woman. This was before aids and sex was truly for free. Now UF is so hard to get into, finding cute women are much, much harder on campus. Most of the fine women are now at FSU or UCF.

          I don’t think kids party like back in the day. Maybe they do but it’s much different than your time or even my time late 90’s/early 00’s.

            They're too busy studying. We had time to party, go to sporting events, actually go out on a date, etc. There's no way I could graduate today. These schools put so much pressure on the kids today, too much work, kids are staying up, doing all nighters each week. Schools are weeding out the weak. It's an endurance contest. It's awful. I know students that have classes all day, into the evening. Wth? They have evening classes. Crazy.

              Plenty more they can cut.

                  Emmanuel Acho will replace Bayless in that morning slot.

                  Great decision, Acho takes are terrific, he's articulate, played the game for the Texas Longhorns, played for the Cleveland browns (and others).
                  He's a terrific listen.

                  Seems that pompous, blowhard of a hack Dan Le Betard has a problem with this.

                    Buzzy was 50 when I was 20, so he had a ton of great stories from when he was a kid in the 1930's.
                    The old timers have all the best stories from the 30's and 40's, because they were kids then, they were there.
                    God Bless Old Timers.
                    My dad had some great stories from the 1950's and so on, so I write about their stories as like I was there, even though I wasn't...

                    Thanks for the love Jaker, appreciate you brother.
                    This is some good wisdom. ALWAYS listen to the old-timers' stories! You can learn so much, and if you're lucky get a real glimpse of history to the eyes of someone that was there.

                      That dopey f@cker suited ESPN to a tee. Griffin still thinks he can start in the NFL.

                        I can see Acho doing well on that show. He fits in well with the show. With all the hot air he blows out there he will fit in well. Not a big fan of his. I feel bad for Joy Taylor. She gets stuck with Keyshawn Johnson and Paul Pierce. They are the worse. Paul is just good for trying to get Shaq to come to Fox. Let's see if it makes it through football season.

                            Greenburg is the perfect weak cuck white male for ESPN...no backbone and will gladly go along with anything they want him to do.
