I'm sure a station will pick him up here. Head to head against the round table, hopefully my market is smart enough to make the right choice.

Saw that coming. So he's going to be part of the SEC/ESPN Network deal, obviously.

The show is humiliating and pathetic when it exposes these people to a national audience.

God help us.
That should have been a dealbreaker for Slive and the ESPN/SEC Network.
Typical ESPN though.
Get ready for ad nausem Finebaum, Pollack, etc.
Will be difficult TV watching.

I cann't stand his show either, but with him going on ESPN nation wide, he's going to have to signficantly expand his subject matter, as the SEC is already hated enough around the country. No way is ESPN going to let him make it a SEC based show. And I seriously doubt some of those "fans" of his will be able to locate his new area code to call in to. Curious as to what time slot he will have as I cann't see SVP being bumped.

As i understood it he would be going to the SEC network portion so I expect he panders to the same mongoloids as always.

Yea...he's not goign to broaden his scope outside of the sec on the sec network.
