    Nah, I'm not one of those "any publicity is good publicity" guys. Everett is terrible, and if I had been on a deserted island for a year, and had a chance to watch a Neil Everett sportscenter to catch up, I'd rather just go back to sitting on the sand getting skin cancer.

    For the record, I think the SVP Sportscenter is the best sportscenter in the network's history. I think Matt Barrie and Elle Duncan are really enjoyable.
    For the record, I think that Toni Collins, while I am sure a nice young woman, makes more mistakes than any anchor I've ever heard.

    I'm not even sure there's a close second. One stop up 10-0 against the Broncos and the Jets beat the Falcons by five TDs two weeks later and today Fireman Ed and Joe Benigno are only fretting over a 23-year Super Bowl drought. Don't worry, though. Zach Wilson will be the one that works out! See you in four years for the next savior.

    Not when you loathe him so much even the possibility of him appearing on your screen is enough to watch a Friends rerun for the 765th time.

    Same going back to the Channel 5 days with KO. Then at KCBS with Lampley and Bree before he went to Bristol.

    I don't know that ESPN did much more than just give Beadle too many outlets to speak and eventually that bit them in the ass once she went after football. And then went all in on those who commit domestic violence (GOOD!) while being shown hugged up to repeat DV offender "Stone Cold" Steve Austin (BAD!!)

    My favorite 3 SC host/duos in order.
    1. Kilborn/Ravech
    2. DP/KO
    3. SVP

    I don't mind Randy Scott/Nicole Briscoe at all.

    There are two voices that the milli-second I hear them on SportsCenter, I either turn the channel entirely or watch it on MUTE.
    1 is Linda Cohn. The other is Toni Collins.

    Kenny O'Brien was a damn good Quarterback on Jets teams that couldn't stop a fucking nosebleed. 1985 AFC Player of the Year

    Barrie and Duncan have worked out really well, I think they get the dynamic ESPN is trying to accomplish with that 6 p.m. SC. I think Sage Steele is solid as an anchor. Not a lot of flash, but she seems extremely well prepared.
