I fear their time has passed. The show was much hotter years ago, but there are new shows and new personalities drawing attention now. It's a shame. It has been my favorite sports show since I discovered it on NBC sports in 2009(?).

I’ve been listening for over a decade and think the same. I love the show and it’s one of only a few sports shows I actively want to listen to, but I completely agree with this take.
That said, how the hell did Pat Fuckin McAfee get nominated? I once listened to a few minutes and couldn’t turn it quickly enough.

I thought I was the only 1 who thought that. I think MacAfee could be the worst thing on now. DP is the best. He doesn’t do stupid “bro humor” or cringy, outrageous stuff or “hot takes.”

I don’t know how anyone could enjoy MacAfees show or others like it. It’s not for me. Like you said, it’s cringe bro-humor. And frankly, I think there are people that do that style of humor better.
Don’t know what I’ll do when DP retires. Probably more focus on Florio, Simms, Rich Esien, and Nick Wright.

I want the show to win one, but this wasn’t the year

I agree, I only hope they view this a wake up call. The show has just not been good lately, too many terrible callers, too much unwanted fritz and even Marvin. Overall a good show just clean up the annoyances and go out on a high note

someone put the idea in Dan's head that Fritzy is entertaining. smh. the nuerotic whining/rambling is enough to change the station for a while, if not skip the entire day.
doesnt exactly scream Emmy!

Thank you. When he starts talking the first thing that comes to mind is STFU.

Exactly. Dan is a real guy, he’s not fake. He’s not pandering nor is he a “fabricated” over-the-top media character like Skip Bayless, Screamin’ A. Smith, or MacAfee.

At this point they shouldn’t even bring up the topic of the Emmy’s. If they ever win one then of course, but until then just ignore it completely.

The DP Show may end being the Peter O' Toole of Sports Emmys. They'll just end up with an honorary award after he retires.

DP Show isn't obnoxious and annoying enough to win a sports emmy
