ESPN should have PTI and Around the horn swap time slots

[Silkk]

PTI >>>>>> ATH

I been waiting YEARS for Mike and Mike to be cancelled... Sue Me

Mike and Mike is a syndicated radio show. Not the same thing.

First take is their flagship morning show. The format used to be somewhat different but it allows for their time to be longer.

Sportscenter reports what happens, and they've been showing Sportscenter on a loop since the day you were born.

Some shyt is just better off as is. If you make PTI and hour, it's gonna get so bloated and then you'll hate it.

What does that have to do with anything? Why each show is long is irrelevant, the whole point is that there are plenty of shows on espn that are over an hour that talk about the same things that every other show on espn discuss. Why u have a problem with one show hypothetically being 20 mins longer is mind boggling.

But its whatever. Personally i wouldn't mind PTI being longer. Thats just a personal thought.

They give Stephen and Skip two hours to talk about the same shyt.

If you put Stephen A. and Skip in a format like PTI, it wouldn't work. It's too rushed. Not to mention, that show since it was First and 10 is still trying to figure what works perfectly. I think two hours is too bloated but it doesn't matter because people watch it. They go in on Tebow or some other segment for 15-20 minutes and people like that shyt.

Part of the appeal of PTI is that they say what they need to say about something and it doesn't take them long to do so and then onto the next one. The longer you make a show like that, the more ridiculous the topics will be, and/or you'll make the show different from what it is.

well they do extend it like on sportscenter they are like "lets have the guys at PTI weigh in on the debate"

 

[JoseLuisGotcha]

I'm just still amazed that ESPN was too cheap to replace Tony Reali as the stat guy on PTI.

is that how he got is start...

kind feels like boardwalk empire like a young scareface or lucky luch coming up under the old bosses and getting his own turf and plotting to take over....they can only young bol' him for so long

 

[dabestkeptsecret]

i mess with numbers never lie and sports nation during that time. I think ATH and PTI are both

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

I just don't see how people can consistently watch both.... the topics are damn near identical

 

[DamonDashsRocAFellaChain]

They really need to give Max Kellerman and Marcellus Wiley (Max and Marcellus) their own show. Their chemistry is off the charts here in L.A.

 

[YakSpiller]

Around The Horn is the best show on ESPN imo

 

[cellsius]

Anybody messing with the Dan Lebatard show with his pops? I actually watch that first, then pti. Probably just because its different and after ten years or whatever, I'm kinda burned out on pti.

 

[Smokin Rider]

Don't disrespect Tony Reali da Don. What E!SPN needs to do is have ATH on at it's usual time and then put PTI on around like 7. Becuase they are just discussing the same things and the news can change throughout the day. I get tired of watching ATH and then immediatly watch PTI discuss the same exact topics, saying the same exact opinions

My man Max fukked himself by jumping ship from ATH for that Fox show. Anyone remember that, he took that one dread dude with him too. He's rebounded nicely tho.

But still PTI > any ESPN show. They just need to have Tony and Mike in studio together more often. These fools be missing weeks at a time now. I saw Chris Broussard on the other day and was like and immediately changed the channel.

You missed the valuable insight that Wilbon brings? Dude is a pathetic dikkrider.

I remember that show......it was called "iMax" or something. He took Michael Holley with him.
