I actually prefer Keith talking sports over Keith talking politics. Wish Dan Patrick was joining him.

(32,074 posts)7. Yeah, I really, really miss "Countdown".
I watched it from nearly Day One. His sports show has some of the same elements, including the "Worst Person", complete with the same music, and the same Keithy sense of humor and not-dumbed-down commentary. He even throws his stack of papers at the camera. It gives me a feeling that all is well with the world again.

I don't think I've ever watched anything on ESPN2, but for KO, I'll make an exception!!!

(20,899 posts)10. I wrote ESPN's head-honcho, skewering ESPN for getting rid of KO. I had though the parting
was likely so acrimonious that KO would never set foot again in their domain. Silly me.
