    Perhaps this has already been posted. Proof that there is a higher power... perhaps it's the Mouse, but I'll throw a prayer towards anything that got this lug nut off ESPN.

    I have nothing to base this on other than Dakich’s “personality” but I’m gonna take a wild guess that he refuses to get vaxed and ESPN requires it so he’s gone. Whatever the reason, buh and bye spells buh-bye.

    He's shuffled off to the Clay Travis school of sports broadcasting. Good riddance.

    I'm not a big fan of Greenberg, Cory Alexander, and a few others. But Dakich takes it to another level because he just seems like a truly miserable human being. Good riddance.

    Good riddance. A know-it-all who talked incessantly. My mute button will get a rest.

    He can peddle his wares to the dozens of people who watch Outkick Network. Have fun with that, Dan.
    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    I didn't realize who Outkick is and what is roots are. Given that, and the information contained in the article I'm linking, I feel even more strongly in my hunch described in my earlier post on this thread as to what is driving Dakich's move: Covid testing and Covid messaging. He's gonna fit right in with this collection of cranks and quacks.

    Well it’s not like ESPN can’t give Mr Elmore a call.
    While Jakitch is a drag, it can always get worse.

    I would take Elmore or almost anyone else over Jockitch. I don’t need all of his pre-teen angst. And knowing where he is going now makes me think even less of him.

    He took all of the bad from Knight and none of the good.
