What?  A southern person hating Jersey boys?  Very short sighted and honestly ridiculous.  Jeff Foxworthy might start a sport talk show but I wouldn’t wait around till the rednecks come home.

He's from Pittsburgh. He just acts like he's from Jersey.

Hat's off to him for making a living but it's basically "Jersey Shore Sports Talk". It doesn't speak highly of you if you're a regular listener.

Just sayin'.

 

I don’t care for him or his show either but was the bolded really necessary?

So sports reporting in my life went from journalism to hot take to opinion entertainment lol...

Well if ESPN died maybe YouTube will be next. Just seems like a different version of hot take sports BS by dragging it out. Not sure which is less enjoyable to me. Well to each their own, try not to kill too many brain cells.

Very similar to the national media in general

Pat's show is great because they cover the same stuff as the talking wigs but they have absolutely zero fuggs to give for who they piss off with the commentary. You get some pretty pointed criticism from them some times that you don't get other places.

He's also an easy avenue for the players to get on and tell their story without going through the normal protocols. You would never have heard Aaron Rodgers' stance on the vaccine if Pat wasn't around. 

Or, rather, maybe that's why some don't like Pat, I'm sure.

All of the 24 hr cycle stuff did on cable. They had to fill the spaces and then it took over. I'm not sure the news did the hot take BS ESPN feed viewers but they skipped to the entertainment news hard. There is still good news out there but people only want to hear what they believe that is the cesspool YouTube provides.

Yes I was referring more to the national news becoming more opinion and less about actual accurate news.   It is really too bad that real journalism is pretty much dead.

    • Yep, the Panthers powers that be seem desperate to convince themselves he can clear the bare minimum bar of demanding a legit franchise QB contract. Canales seems to be laying the groundwork here of building the case that all of Bryce's shortcomings are still there and even more glaring than you may have thought while his strengths aren't nearly as strong as you had hoped and aren't near enough to make up for the lack of pure physical tools. When you have historically anomalous lack of measurables you need historically anomalous positive intangibles to make up for it. That was always issue with Bryce as a prospect. Like Parcells said when evaluating him, "he better walk on water". 
    • I'm honestly not sure how much "west coast" plays into it. There's a huge difference between Tucson, AZ and Spokane, WA where he spent the previous two decades of his career. Chapel Hill is significantly different than Spokane but way more similar to it than Tucson. You're talking about a pretty significant plane ride to get back home either way. He and his family would be flying private and direct so we're talking about a 3ish hour flight vs. a 5ish hour flight. That's basically a wash. It's not like he went from Gonzaga to another PNW program. Tucson is a dramatic departure from Washington state. Honestly a far bigger departure climatically and scenery wise than Chapel Hill would be.
