Seriously though, Mike & Mike is the greatest morning radio show there is. Believe dat!

As for Cowherd, not a big college football fan and I am a big Redskins fan so I don't listen to his show that often (plus I'm generally busy, meetings, work, posting on the warpath, etc) at that time of day. But I must say, while I've dealt with his producers the past few years, only recently have I really gotten to know Cowherd personally...and honestly I was kind of ready for him to be a total jerk. But he's not, not at all. Extremely down to earth, friendly guy. I never thought when I came up here that Colin Cowherd and Sean Salisbury would be my favorite on-air personalities off-air. (Brian Kenny is up there as well)

Sorry SS, but respectfully I'm not a fan of the big dogs on ESPN radio. I think Golic is funny, but Mike Greenberg's girly man schtick is SOOO tired. And I just can't stand his voice. Plus, commercials take up at least half of their show. It's amazing to me how many ads there are. And nothing is more annoying than radio ads IMO.

I think Colin Cowherd is pompous as hell. He LOVES the sound of his own voice, and without anyone else on his show, it has a feel of him just forcfeeding his opinions. Plus he loves to bash the Skins.

I've only heard Brian Kenny's show once, and it was pretty solid. Doesn't Van Pelt have his own show now? He's my favorite of the ESPN anchors, plus he's a local guy. Is he a Redskins fan? I think he went to Sherwood High School and I know he's a Terp.

Seriously...I watch SBTB reruns in the mornings. My thoughts on Mike and Mike the show are that they can be good and their shows have good elements to them, but overall sometimes maybe they try too hard. My thoughts on Mike and Mike the people I'll save for another time. But honestly, I don't listen to them that often because in the morning, apart from checking this site, I tend to limit my sports exposure before I get to work because I know I'll be bombarded with it at work. I need balance in my life.

Not as big a fan of Cowherd is of college football so I generally don't listen to his show but he's grown on me as a person

SVP is a huge, huge, huge, Terps fan. It's kinda disturbing but good for him for being so passionate about his Terps. His radio show is pretty solid. He's got a face for radio ...seriously though, his show is good.

I like Doug Gottlieb's show.

But truthfully, I don't listen to that much sports radio. And come football season, I generally will tune in online to 980 to get my Redskins fix
