Way too much change happening way too fast. :pin: :laugh: Title: Re: BIG & RICH LEAVE ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY Post by: Black Diamond Vol on August 25, 2023, 03:16:58 EDT They did a promo with Post Malone a couple weeks ago. I wonder if he?s the replacement. :dunno:

I luv the addition of McAfee but it seems like Gameday is a little bit of a shell of its old self. It's nice to have playing in the background, I guess.
Title: Re: BIG & RICH LEAVE ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY Post by: Tnphil on August 25, 2023, 06:18:40 EDT I liked the promo song...It meant it was Saturday morning and college football all day and evening.....I didn't care for the program as much when they went from 2 hours to 3. Watered it down and too much fluff IMO.
Wonder if Rich was too conservative for ESPN and Disney? They sure wasn't doing it for the money. Maybe Disney and ESPN were too woke for Rich?

Yeah, the song got the juices flowing because of what it signaled.

I figured that was the implication of the post. More "woke" evil. The song and band are embarrassingly stupid, and an affront to country music. Maybe that's why? Having said that, I can honestly say I had no idea they had been affiliated with ESPN for 16 years, and if I did I would have purposely not tuned in. I've never really liked the show, going back to the Spurrier/Fulmer era. Title: Re: BIG & RICH LEAVE ESPN COLLEGE GAMEDAY Post by: SmokeyJoe on August 25, 2023, 10:45:25 EDT There seems to be a creeping itch to bring politics back to the board. I hate that, BUT it ain't my board. I love you all as Vol fans, but for politics not so much :toothless: I can take my ball and go home if needed like Creek Walker :loco: I just don't see the need for politics. Isn't everybody registered with sites where current events & politics are the stated purpose? Hasn't Musk turned X into a safe space for aggrieved "non-woke" folks? :patriot:
