Sure it will. ESPN will just simulcast his radio show on the SECN the same way they air Colin Cowherd, NBC Sports airs Dan Patrick, and CBS Sports airs Tim Brando.

Bspn/NFL tried this same experiment a few years ago with rush Limbaugh. He eventually said something predictably stupid and was fired. The same will happen with finebum.

If a pompous loudmouth like Tim Brando and his annoying redneck sidekicks can successfully stay on air then ANYONE can.

Finebaum = Dumbest person in the world

I'm just as surprised as anyone else he's on gameday. I thought Lou Holtz was bad on ESPN but Paul makes me look forward to hearing Lou speak for god sakes.

He has that many call his show?

Did he pick LSU or Georgia to win?

He made his name by stirring the hatred between Bama and AU people. I can't believe that garnered him national sports accolades though. It seems that "Blessed are the peacemakers" doesn't apply to his skinny, bald arse though.

He's became very wealthy by having people hate him. He knows what he's doing. Doesn't claim to know Xs and Os of football.
Posted on 9/28/13 at 8:33 am to PeaRidgeWatash
he is being paid for his opinions and not for his knowledge of how he played the game
Posted on 9/28/13 at 8:36 am to WreckingCrue
He's a radio face fo sho

He was a backup Quarterback at Tennessee. He may not be as sharp as some of the guys on here but I'm sure he knows a little bit about the X and O part of the game. He may not be coming off that great in front of the camera but once he becomes comfortable with the role, I think you will see that he is a lot more intelligent than he is being portrayed here. It's just ridiculous to say he has a picture of somebody with a goat or whatever form of dirt we are thinking.
Are you saying that he is worse than that dunderhead, Lee Corso. That guy is a cartoon character, not a commentator. Or are you saying he is worse than 'Uncle Mumbles' better known as Lou Holtz. He even makes the hillbillies of West Virginia look bad and frankly, I can't understand half of what he says because he walks on his own words. Buh, buh, buh.

Finebaum started his career doing some investigative journalism for the Birmingham News. People (anonymous sources) do tell him a lot of rumors and gossip. I think he is on ESPN because of all of his Jewish friends like Luginbill and some of the others have helped him. There is nothing wrong with people of the same faith helping each other out. I have seen it at my company, Mormons are helping other Mormons get promoted. This is just my theory because there is nothing special about him. He really cannot talk about football on a deep level of understanding. He is the Howard Stern-Jerry Springer of College Football.

Right now he looks like the nerd kid that is just so happy to be in the group with the "cool kids" 
He looks very out of place

He's a professional shite stirrer, and he's very good at it.

Like Howard Stern doing NBC nightly news.
1) Since when does it take brains to read the news to a camera. I read the news all the time and I'm an idiot
2) Stern is the best.
