Good riddance! Now if only Channel 345 in Anchorage will pick up Mushbuggger to cover the town's h.school games the SEC Network can bring in some new good blood.

Best news I've heard all day.

I credit tRant with getting him the frick out of the SEC.

I thought he was an LSU homer, and they are in the SEC??

He had slight favoritism toward LSU and Ole Miss. Who cares? His desire to see a mid major Boise play for it all made him hard to stomach. He tried too hard to be the guy to give them a chance.

Brando was a supporter of the "little guy" but his support went to straight up obsession as time went on. He wanted BCS chaos just to see a Boise State or a Hawaii or a Northern Illinois slip into the big game. Now that the Big 5 is on the verge of being granted autonomy by the NCAA, I'll never have to hear that shite from Brando again. There will be no "little guys" to win the national title in the big boy division that will be created.

Wow, looks like he rustled a lot of Bama jimmies. I'm not offended by him. Seems very pro-Ole Miss right now, presumably since one of his daughters allegedly goes there.

Bama fan here. I always liked Brando. Occasionally listen to his show on XM and was looking forward to him being part of the SEC Network. He was just a bit biased against Bama but so what? An analyst doesn't have to wave crimson and white pom poms to do a broadcast.

As other posters have noted on this forum, he seems to be more pro-underdog than anything. Bama's on top right now, so guess who he's going to undercut a little.

I couldn't care less if he was biased against Bama or not. His incessant bitching about how the system was unfair to the smaller schools really got on my nerves after a while.

I guess Fox Sports was the fly in the ointment for the SEC Network.....
Glad he's gone. Can't stand to hear him try to do Keith Jackson's Alabama.

Genius move by Fox Sports. They're having him go there to troll SEC fans so that they will tune into their network and talk about it/him. They need the SEC fan-bases to drive up their shitty ratings. He's already started with his ridiculous preseason ranking.

He wanted to call both football and basketball games and Fox Sports will let him. SEC Network only wanted him for basketball.
