Thompson and Trudell will probably be moving to evenings 6-8pm as a result.

It was good to be able to turn to local programming vs Cowherd in the mornings, but now with Screamin' A blaring away, will need to tune out for a while until this changes.

Oh wait... 10-noon? Haha, nevermind then. I'm at work so it doesn't matter. Thank God I don't have to listen to his ridiculous screaming. He's the type of dude thats riled up at breakfast, screaming at coffee, and complaining about the bagels having not enough cream cheese.

The type of guy you see in the lounge while you're walking in with your coffee mug and you walk right out, hoping he didnt see you so you don't have to have a conversation with him. A conversation that includes him screaming about some nonsense, and you looking uncomfortable while nodding along, hoping for him to finish his sentence so you can slowly inch backwards and walk out.

Me too. I live on the East Coast and they are on from 12-3. I listen to them while I work everyday.

They will be on from 6-8, which is 9-11 for me, which sucks. Maybe I'll have to download their podcast.

I won't be listening to Stephen A. Guess I will listen to Cowherd.

me three. Why is ESPN always ruining my morning commutes? First, they stick us with Monkey Brains Willard after I started warming up to Max and Marcellus. They finally get Trudell on which I have been wanting for a while and replace him with SAS.

Disappointed that Thompson and Trudell will be moving. Since they are so well connected to, and invested in the Lakers, you could be sure to get a show that mostly talked about the Lakers (which is what most of us want), as well as a fair and, at times, a slightly homerish perspective on them.

SAS, like Max Kellerman, seem like outsiders to our city/the Lakers/etc. Max tried to outwardly and obviously fake it, usually using sarcasm. SAS just kinda did his own thing and didn't try to fake being a homer.

I just hope he doesn't waste time railing on Jim Buss, and actually talks about the real issues.

The real question is why ESPN keeps thinking SAS is entertaining and about sports?

Bye.

710 was dead to me when they dumped LeBatard. That's the smartest, funniest show in sports radio and they got rid of it for freakin' Keyshawn Johnson and some scrubs? Losing Kellerman was bad enough since he carried Marcellus, but getting rid of LeBatard was the nail in the coffin.

I look forward to SAS coming to 710. I wonder if he'll have the same leeway talking about race as he does on ESPN TV.

So where was SAS between his departure and return to ESPN-LA?

Did he wear out his welcome at his last location?

Or does ESPN just rotate these guys on a random basis to try and keep things from getting stale?

Could be. Looks like ESPN is doing a overhaul. They moved Michael Smith and Jemele Hill, His & Hers, SAS, Max Kellerman, First Take, broke up Mike and Mike after, I believe, 17 years together, changed their 710am LA lineup, among other things.
