Exclamation ESPN/Fox in bidding war for Sean Payton

WWL NFL Analyst Mike Detillier says ESPN and Fox Sports are in a bidding war to try and get Saints Coach Payton to be an in-studio analyst during his looming one year .

"I've been told that it looks as though he is going to end up at ESPN," Detillier said.

He says his sources are saying that ESPN is the likely going to have an announcement soon.

"You'll see Sean Payton on ESPN... with Chris Berman and the gang every Sunday," Detillier insisted.

I kinda feel bad for Mike D.

With the Saints having so little presence in the draft this year, I don't think his guide is gonna sell very well.

I feel sorry for Bobby, just because he's awful.

I hope his salary wherever he goes offsets the insane penalty the league hammered him with. Other than that I don't care much because I rarely watch any of that pre-game BS.

I like Bobby because I understand what he is, an unabashed "homer" that is all emotion and little thought.

I stopped listening because of Deke's superior, know it all attitude towards callers. And no, I am not one of those callers, I just cannot stand the dude.

Oh, the 45 min of commercials and news vs 15 min of content sucks too.

I agree. I can't stand the way Deke talks to callers. And Bobby is aggravating but as you said you accept him for what he is. But I also get VERY frustrated with the callers. There are so many morons that call in to the show, I really think whoever the "filter" for the show is, they need someone to do a better job. If Deke and Bobby didn't have so many TOTAL NINCOMPOOPS calling in, it wouldn't be so bad.

Im a huge fan of Bobby and I like Deke too. I think you're lucky to have them both, and you dont realize it. Listen to some Houston sports radio some time. Houston sports radio will bore you like tax code.

Its not rocket surgery, its just football, and its for fun. even if it does affect my moods.

Bobby and Deke sound like nowhere else in the country, and WWL's Saints coverage is ridiculous in a good way. I love their passion, their knowledge, their crazy callers-- their craziness themselves. You just dont know, if you havent been somewhere else... doesnt get any more honest than these guys. You know you're in Louisiana.

... and hearing you guys b***h about them... I also know Im in Louisiana. lol.
Dont change
