    It's for sure not Baseball Tonight.
    Ok, that must be why Bayless is coming back.

    Maybe a little Stump the Schwab?

        I was trying to figure out what made a show like ATH or PTI, which are talking heads arguing over sports, different from the newer shows that I don’t care for. Maybe it was the novelty — as soon as EVERYTHING became talking heads arguing over sports, it was too much. I get why ATH would be expendable now. Maybe just growing up and these figures aren’t as cool as they seemed when you’re a kid.

        The format was pretty cool with points and different segments, like a game show on a sports network. Excellent sports referential name too. Sounds like a reboot in 10 years.
        Taking from an old post of mine in this thread, here're my thought on the matter:

        - Get Up
        - First Take
        - Jalen & Jacoby
        - Highly Questionable
        - Around the Horn
        - Pardon the Interruption (the OG)

        . . .

        I'll enjoy PTI because not only was it the original, but they also cover every sport, they keep on their time limits, you pretty much know their entire half-hour schedule ahead of time, they remain focused on the content with less bias and more statistics, it lacks any gimmicks (such as the scoring of ATH), and they have likable long-term hosts who have fantastic chemistry with one another.

          I kinda wonder if Meadowlark Media might go after him, they scoop up lots of former ESPN personalities and it seems to work out pretty well

          I remember he was on Stupodity or God Bless Football, can't remember which, with Stugotz after he said Tony was the most under utilized talent at ESPN years ago

            Haha when did I post that one? Must've been years ago.

            EDIT: Wow, not even two years ago. Yeah, that definitely aged poorly.
