Wow. Now he's doing Mathcounts. He's funny on it, but now I know how much ESPN respects him. My goodness. This is embarrassing.
So I'm assuming if a nationally-televised cable network ever called you to host a show that will never air in any time slot except 3AM on Sunday morning, you wouldn't take it? You sure sound confident about that.
It's work. It pays the bills. It's exposure. It has the potential to lead to something bigger. Chick Hearn, considered universally to be one of the greatest announcers to announce basketball games was the host of a show called "Bowling for Dollars." A contestant would win the jackpot if he/she bowled three consecutive strikes. Chick didn't need the gig, but he took it because it was exposure, and it paid the bills.
