    New ESPN lineup:

    Get Up (starring Mike Greenberg) 7-9am
    First Take (with Stephen A.) 9-11am
    Lunch with Pat (Pat McAfee Show) 11am-2pm
    Green lighting the afternoon drive (with Mike Greenberg) 2-5pm
    The Night Shift with Stephen A. 6-8pm

    ESPN got a fever and the only prescription is more Stephen A & Mike “Greeny” Greenberg

    *LOL Lineup is not real

    I loved JVG, I wish Tilman had the money to make him the home color commentator for Rockets games...

    Max is great on combat sports, boring everywhere else.

    Rest of those guys were very replaceable. McAfee is a character and probably better for that spot.

    Haven't watched ESPN in years unless it is a live game I am interested in. Was done with them and most other national sports coverage after they dogged the Astros daily for like 2 years, and they STILL talk about it if given the chance.

    @Os Trigonum
    @J.R.

    they fired Jalen Rose but Malika Andrews is still there
    It’s pretty safe to that Jalen knows more about the NBA than her

    but you know.. why

    the worst business move by Disney has been promoting Bob Chapek to replace the retiring CEO Bob Iger m 2020.

    in his short tenure as the CEO, Chapek
    • has managed to alienate everyone from high-level company insiders to park guests to talent.
    • was at the helm when the ultimate cash hog, Disney-plus was launched.
      • this streaming business has been growing rapidly
        • but it has lost over $1.25 billion in 2022, after a loss of $660 million in 2021

    the best move by Disney in 2022 was to fire Chapek, and replaced him with former CEO Bob Iger.
    But it would take a while before Iger can fix / un-do Chapek's screw-ups
