ESPN updated their website design for the first time in 6 years and it's arguably their biggest redesign in more like 13 years. Weirdly they are sticking with the whole failed "go.com" thing from the late 90s though.

That's it. Looks like every other fargin' website now. Also looks like it was made for tablets, not PCs.

No...he's going to host the morning show with Marks. Say goodbye to mike and Mike who nobody listens to anyway.

PhillyPhreak54 · April 01, 2015, 07:24:46 PM

Mike and Mike are awful. The 17 minutes of sports "talk" per hour is trash. The other 43min are commercials.

I thought ESPN affiliates had to carry them though?

MDS · April 01, 2015, 07:39:55 PM

there's either some wiggle room around that or 975 is dropping its affiliation with espn

SD · April 01, 2015, 09:18:34 PM

They want to keep their affiliation with ESPN. Don't know how they're going to pull it off. They've wanted a local morning guy for some time but couldn't find someone decent.
