Get Up!

Doesn't get it. Watched 20 minutes, she put down college basketball's "one shining moment" and then the masters..... she is awful!

A show like this needs to exist, and Greenberg is the perfect person to host it. I used to like Beadle before she left ESPN the first time, but she is not a fit for this morning format, and it's obvious Greenberg can tell already it's a failure. Jalen is fine for a segment or two, but he isn't ready for this. It took Golic years, there is a reason why people go to college for this.

Please save us and Greeny.

This show had a rough start but got better for a short time. Now it feels worse than at the beginning. It's more about the sets, graphics, and personalities, than it is about sports news and insight. Occasionally a guest will come on with some real insight and there are times it feels worthy of my time. More times than not it's like Maury Povich but sports related. These sports personalities are spouting their opinions more for the entertainment value than actual reporting or insight. For some reason they feel that the more sports entertainment personalities they put on screen at the same time the better it is... It's not.

I simply don't get what ESPN thinks it is doing devoting even more airtime to the "hot" takes debate format that has been killing its ratings for years now.

The hosts are beyond unappealing. This clearly was a vanity project that Greenberg's agent must have blackmailed or begged management for. He has no presence and only a cursory knowledge of athletics after all these years in SPORTS BROADCASTING. Jalen Rose is just smug. Beadle had nothing to interact with. And she probably said what she said about not watching football to get thrown off the show before it dragged down her career. Sadly it is now just a revolving door of female fill-ins in shorter and shorter skirts.

In the morning, stick to the facts and highlights of the previous day's sports events. This show must be aimed at a demographic that needs to be screamed at in order to awaken them. Unfortunately, this show will put them right back to sleep.

Destroying Mike & Mike in order to create this dreadful mess was a mistake of epic proportions. The best way to salvage Get Up! is to bring Golic in recreate it as Mike & Mike 2. That would have the added advantage of rescuing viewers from tremendously annoying Trey Wingo.
