I've a question for you regular type posters.... re: Paul Finebaum
I'm super-curious.... Show of hands, please...
1) How many posters here have followed Paul Finebaum for 25+ years?
2) ....since his Radio Network became syndicated (2001)?
3) ....since his employment at ESPN (2013)?

My hands are in my pocket and I don't have a hole in one of them.

I watched some during the 2014 football season when he actually had a few positive things to say about us. Never before. Never again.
-
Honestly, I listened to him before syndication. I stopped regularly listening when he joined ESPN and turned into the Jerry Springer of radio. If on a commute, I would hit the XM station and he would have someone like Phyllis on spewing nonsense. It was over for good at that point.
He was, at one time, pretty good at what he did.
-
Paul had a good show in the 90's. Quit listening right after the Saban hire for good. His show is an absolute joke now.
-
Paul's show has become a TOTAL JOKE.... remove the nuts that are on, state the facts, and stop covering up for freeze....
-
Never have listened to him. Now, if I turn over to SECN for some reason, I can't tolerate more than about 5 minutes.
-
I started listening to him when I lived in the Delta somewhere in the mid 90's. I could pick him up on the dial up there, just depended how far West I got til I lost him. Then moved back down to central MS and had to get XM Radio to hear him.
He was better back when, but he hated Jackie with a passion...

Nobody with any semblance of sanity would want to do four hours a day...five days a week and most weeks in the year of listening and trying to respond to most of the inane comments that his callers make.....my question is what in the world drives someone like Finebaum to do that?

Since Tommy Charles whipped his ass.

I didn't know of him until the SEC Network deal

I called in to the show for about two weeks. But I couldn't stand the lunatics that I had to hear while being on hold. Quit listening about 4 years ago. Calling it the Jerry Springer of radio is an insult to Jerry Springer. IMO.

Since the internet put his show on, when ever that was. It sucks now, because it used to be regional.

Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.

Need another option...who doesn't follow him.
I never have.

Several years ago, I listened to him on Sirius for about 4 months. Gave him a shot, but it was really bad so I didnt last long. Seems like Tammy & Phyllis were new then.

3 would be my closest answer, but I wouldn't say I've ever followed him, just listened a few times. I never enjoyed any of it.
