Michael McCarthy of Sporting News rejoins the podcast this week! We discussed:
- His report that execs at Fox Sports are pushing for less NBA talk and more discussion on sports the network has rights for on FS1. How on Earth can Skip Bayless and Colin Cowherd talk NASCAR?
- Should Skip Bayless really be looking over his shoulder after the regime change?
- Would an average of 65,000 viewers per day be considered a success for First Things First with Nick Wright and Cris Carter this Fall?
- When will Katie Nolan join ESPN?
- How Mike Greenberg is already working with sponsors for his upcoming morning show.
- Who will Fox be bidding against for UFC rights?
Hope you enjoy!
