Mike Greenberg's Intelligence Is Compromised By Mike Golic's Chronic Dumb Jockyness
Mike Greenberg, the well-manicured, impish half of "Mike And Mike In The Morning" was interviewed by Dan Levy on his OnTheDL show and was asked if the show is"dumbed down" to cater to the average sports fan. Greenberg would never undermine or insult his audience like that, but he did take his usual ...

Would You Pay $57,000 To Have These Men In Your Living Room? Rush Limbaugh's Ex-Wife Did
Everyone remembers how awful the Rush Limbaugh experiment on ESPN was. How long did it take for him to say something inappropriate? Two weeks? But Limbaugh resigned, ESPN looked a little foolish, and everyone moved on....

Bonnie Bernstein Is Not An Expert On The Middle East
Bonnie Bernstein, everybody's favorite Jersey sideline reporter, has had a relatively quiet couple of years at ESPN. That is, until a couple of days ago, when she made a bit of a verbal misstep on the Mike and Mike show....

Mike And Mike, Sad Media Folk And The Fox Sports Grill
Because of a missed appointment, after we filed our Sporting News column last night, we spent the evening stranded at a cheesy Glendale sports bar, waiting for a cab that never came. (We literally spent four hours roaming around the greater Phoenix area doing nothing last night. We miss public trans...

Dana Jacobson Has The Sole Appropriate Reaction To The Mike And Mike Roast
Last Friday night, they held that "Mike And Mike Celebrity Roast" thing in Atlantic City. It was about as entertaining as you'd expected it to be, according to the Press Of Atlantic City. (No offense to Trey Wingo, but when you host half the show, and the other half is hosted by Jeffrey Ross, you're...

Greenberg Game Show Takes Nation By Storm
Some of you may have liked Duel, the new Mike Greenberg-hosted game show on ABC. I'll admit to being confused by the entire enterprise; for the first 10 minutes I thought I was watching the first episode of the new season of Lost. Answer the question, Hurley, and The Others will release Sawyer! For...

The Upcoming Vivisection Of Mike And Mike, Truly
On January 11, 2008, you're likely to still be recovering from Dennis Kucinich's stunning wins in Iowa and New Hampshire on his way to become the 44th President of the United States. So there's not much better way to clear your cluttered mind than to attend the Mike and Mike Celebrity Roast....

Does Anyone On Earth Own A Fathead?
We ask with genuine curiosity: Who in the world puts a Fathead on their wall? What started out as an odd marketing campaign with Ben Roethlisberger screaming at us to "get a Fathead," or "be a Fathead," or whatever, has clearly grown into ... well, a larger marketing campaign. We've never quite seen...

Buzzsaw-49ers MNF Live Blog
All right, we'll tell you right now: This is a terrible idea. Not only have we been up since 4:15 this morning, but we're also in the odd position of attempting to type non-stop, for three hours, about the season opener of a team for which we have an emotional connection. And we're going to do it ...

What's That Lassie? Mike Greenberg Needs Our Help?
The sun is shining these days on ESPN radio host Mike Greenberg. He's on the backup team for "Monday Night Football," he's got a wacky "Everybody Loves Greeny!" book on the shelves, he's introducing spelling bees on network television and he's the official face of Arena Football, for better or worse...

Mike And Mike Are Everywhere You Look
All told, we think we gave Mike and Mike too hard of a time on the whole spelling bee thing. They weren't so bad; maybe they toned down the schtick for ABC. Anyway, as part of ESPN's plan to have Mike Greenberg (the gay one) and Mike Golic (the fat one) broadcasting every event that Berman and Tiric...

How Do You Spell "P-L-E-A-S-E L-O-R-D G-O-D S-T-O-P T-A-L-K-I-N-G?"
Sometimes we wonder if we are too hard on ESPN. Sure, collectively, they seem to have sucked the very life out of sports, packaging schtick and corporate pablum into a stew of impossible-to-digest soulless muck. (And, unlike the rest of us, they mix metaphors!) But they're still just individuals, ou...

Tony Parker Would Like To Talk To You About His Feet
Via the outstanding Pounding The Rock, we proudly introduce you to Get Your Game Feet On. It's a product promotion from Lamisil featuring Mike and Mike from ESPN Radio — one's gay! one's fat! — and Spurs guard Tony Parker. And it's called Get Your Game Feet On....

Celebrating The True Romance Of Mike Golic
You might have been cynical about the "Mike and Mike Marriage Madness" last Friday — which was "tastefully Gator," in the words of the groom — but that's because you're cold-hearted and don't believe in the "special company [ESPN] has created and nurtured every day." Soulless bastards....
