Wherever Dan goes... I'll go too. He was one of the last reasons I still tuned into ESPN, I'm not interested in some Mike Greenberg generic hot take topics all morning. I want the shipping container!

[@sevenfivesgaming5515]

Mike Greenberg seems to be replacing everyone or pushing out others. Greenberg pushed out Golic from mike and mike to have Get Up. Golic seemed to be the star of mike and mike. Greeny was just there for the ride. I don’t even watch espn any more because they have forced everyone out in one way or another by people leaving to other networks.

Thank you Dan, Stu, Papi, Mike, Guillermo, Roy, Chris, Ron, Greg and the rest of the crew for everything you guys did at espn. You guys became my favorite show over the years and were one of the only bright spots during tough times. I appreciate you guys always keeping it original and always having a good time with each other. You achieved the goal of making it feel like the audience were part of the family and loved the way you guys did your show from all the bits to making fun of sports and ppl, to talking and having guests from different subjects other than sports. Espn is losing letting you guys go. Love you guys even tho I never called in or tweeted. I wish you guys best of luck, hopefully fox or another network takes you in and lets you guys be you. I want to apologize for not listening lately to the podcasts so I don't really know whats going to happen to the cast or the show but if someone can let me know where and how I can continue listening to you guys or what you're going to do next I'd appreciate it.

Whatever platform you used to listen to the show will still have it. Unless you were listening directly from ESPN. I listen to the podcast from Stitcher for example and I won't have to do anything, just stay subscribed.

Man......ESPN.... how you let 20 years of devotion by Dan go like this... he wrote for ESPN the magazine, had a crappy weekend show way back in the day with y’all, did PTI....(BAM!), and stayed with ESPN for years when he could have easily jumped ship like so many others.. I’ve been a follower of Dan since his early Miami herald days and a listener of him and Stugotz since 2003. He’s a unique talent that did it his own way even when ESPN tried to change him.

Jeez this hits hard, man... I´ve loved this show for a couple of years now but this past year it's one of the only things keeping me sane. The crew Dan has managed to put together is a fantastic group of smart, funny, caring, interesting people. So many of my favorite entertainers, analysts, personalities have come out of the exposure from HQ or the radio show. I am very hopeful that this will be in the gang's best interest in the long run. I don't envy all the uncertainty and all the very hard work they have coming their way, but we have their backs. Onward and upward.

3:15 _"I gotta wait... I don't wanna commit myself..."_ I don't follow sports. I was more into music and nerdy, geeky stuff, growing up. I am also the 5th of six children, 3 girls, all older than me, and three boys. Our mother left our father permanently when I was about 3 or 4 because I don't remember them as a married couple, and he filed for divorce sometime later. When I was 9 and my brother, the "baby" of our bunch, was 7, our father told the two of us that if we wanted to see or speak to him *_WE_* had to call or come see *him.* *HE* was not going to contact either of us because our mother (the woman who he nearly had 7 children with, mind you) was "crazy and would call the "po-lease" on him. It wasn't until I was in my 20s that I was truly insulted by what I had come to recognize as not really him putting US in charge of the father-son relationship and directing us to do all the heavy lifting, it was actually him washing his hands of the two of us as our mother's problem (I stopped calling him when I turned 16 when it occurred to me, *_"Why should we go on CTA buses and trains to the southside of Chicago to get cursed out, slapped down, scorned and let down by this fool when we have a live-in woman, our mother, who does all of that and worse on a daily basis?"_* Seeing that he made absolutely NO ATTEMPT WHATSOEVER to try and reach out to me to ask why, I finally "saw the light")... He died in May of 2020 at 82 I think. I wasn't there. I wasn't welcome when he was alive and boys crying, as far as he was concerned, was a crime, not even crucifixion could punish severely enough (even IF I was "sad" which I wasn't... 😂)! Why the hell should you give a crap about any of this? I watched the video as it was attached to a _Yahoo! Sports_ article and seeing your "Papi" giving you the business when you asked him if he was proud of you made me think, while this endeavor ends in a somewhat shabby way, you get to play a starring role in one of life's finest buddy comedies, and it still going! *How cool is that?!*
