    “Duties as assigned”.

    Probably throw Greenberg another 300k to show up on Sundays and play traffic cop. The mouse saves 700k and gets a host with more of a following than Ponder.

    Boom. Done.

    "The Sports Reporters is back without any actual sports reporters but everyone likes these guys so we'll roll them out first and maybe someday we'll go back to panelists who are newspaper columnists. OK we won't, but come watch us on YouTube anyway!"

    God, ain't that the truth. I used to roll out of bed every Sunday morning in college to watch The Sports Reporters. I wouldn't watch this if I was chained to my couch and this was the last thing on YouTube.

    This has been up nearly 24 hours and has about 13.5k views. Seems low. Also embarrassing to have them log in via Zoom from their attics, wearing slob clothes.

    Pretty much the equivalent of newspapers and online outlets firing writers and editors and putting "citizen journalists" in their place.

    In theory, a broadcast with these four guys could/should be entertaining. In theory.

    That was a pile of meh. "Parting Shots" back in the day was always a good end with all the scribes, but Schaap doing it alone is lame and the Deion/reporter stuff is a little old now too.

    Don't imagine this will make my regular YouTube rotation.
