bozworthy Me either. I watch Dan Patrick then Rich Eisen on the Audience Network. I have watched Dan from the beginning in the old studio above the bar. The Danettes were like featherless baby birds waiting for Dan to feed them a lead in so they would HAVE to speak...make a comment. The Danettes are full feathered now and Dan just gets better and better. The Mother Ship was so stupid to let Dan Patrick go...actually force him to go with their stupid decisions. Then the higher ups refused Dan access to anyone on ESPN or even give credit to The Dan Patrick show when they used video or statements from his show. They revealed how they were truly ass wipes. Dan got so big, so popular, with such an enormous audience it got to the point they could no longer ignore him. They tried to make Dan’s show fail but another example of karma being a real thing and of good winning over evil.

Got to add Rich in there too, DP has the better crew, but Rich is legitimately one of the best too.

Dan Patrick WAS Sportscenter in the mid 90’s. I remember thinking “Fuck yeah, Dan Patrick’s on!” Whenever I’d catch him hosting. Legend.

My favorite Sports Center anchors were Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann. Then it was Rich Eisen and Stuart Scott. Those were the golden years of Sports Center. Now ESPN is about hot takes and debates.

@cuongngo485 3 жыл бұрын

the definition of talent is you can make something better while most people can even reach the same level ... the ability to attract a lot of viewrs is the undeniable proof for that ... And sport like any products need good salesmans to become popular by constantly remind people of how good that product it is .. Like a worldwide boxer can only fight 1 2 times a year and it may last only 3 4 mins ... his name easily be fade into people's memory if it can't repeatedly ''analyze'' about it

I love how Dan thinks and talks about being a sports broadcaster as if he was out on the court and/or field..he actually thinks that we give a fuck about “his talents’” and/or view him as a really talented broadcaster. Dude you’re talking about “the talent”...you are NOT the talent. His ego is sickening.
