    The Poll: Is Wyc burning Brad- Should CBS be torched at season's end?

    I voted no in large part because the available known quantities to replace him are not very enticing. It’s not that i haven’t been frustrated at time with his performance, it’s that firing a head coach with a track record of solid results in favor of an unknown is a non-starter. There are better...

    Big changes at CSNNE and WEEI.com

    I sincerely do not see what people see in Keefe, he has always seemed to me to be a dime a dozen bloviating hot take artist. Nothing special.

    Craig Carton in talks for MLB Network morning show

    One of the most loathsome people in sports media. I don’t know why MLB Network would do this over hiring people who aren’t repugnant people, they could just keep reairing Quick Pitch and be just fine.

    2020 Pats: You Cam Go Your Own Way

    Thrilled with this, been a Cam Newton fan for a long time and the worst that happens is he gets cut. Hopefully this signals Hoyer not starting the bulk of the games at least.

    Commentator evaluation: Mike Breen

    Breen is often good locally on the Knicks broadcast but is consistently grating on ESPN/ABC telecasts. He gets cast as a LeBron suck up and I think he’s deserved that, he makes the most of dealing with JVH/Jackson who are unbearable. He could be better but he’s fine most of the time.

    Commentator evaluation: Joe Tessitore

    I gave Tessitore a 3.5 solely because I watch more college football than pro football and Tessitore’s excitability worked better there and I thought it made the game better. I like announcers to sound like they’re enjoying the sport they’re announcing but with that said Tessitore has been brutal...

    B/R's Top 50 NBA Players of All-Time

    Making Kobe zealots mad is always good, but 14 is a pretty accurate appraisal of his career imo. This list is not as bad as I thought it would be, although I would switch Bird and Shaq and make Hakeem tenth.
