Chicago Fanatics Message Board :: View topic - Pat Boyle takes over "Sports Sunday"

Just because Pat Boyle, or as NBC5's Dick Johnson said last night "Pat Doyle" at the end of the 10p news, and Sarah Kustok are joining the NBC Universal-owned station does NOT mean either are leaving Comcast SportsNet. That's the word from NBC5's Station Manager/V.P. of News Frank Whittaker. From what I've read on this story, Boyle & Kustok are there to help out the station's sports staff, and as things stand now, Mike Adamle, Laurence Holmes & Peggy Kusinski, aren't necessarily going to lose their jobs. NBC & Comcast SportsNet happen to be on the same team now.

I saw the first 10 minutes and Larry mentioned he had some Vegas stories he was going to tell later on. So, Beardown, did he share his shenanigans with the audience?

It's funny how they pushed him in to the corner, further off stage, towards the exit door. He's completely superfluous to the show. Boyle is a pro and will do well. Why persist with the slow and painful death for L. Wilburforce Alowishus Holmes IV and Adamle?

You never cease to amaze, Scorehead.

There really isnt anything amazing about this. Corporations hire people to satisfy EEOC requirements every day.
All I am saying is that NBC5 will have all bases covered in the sports department.

So the 1 black guy you have working for you, does he get a company car?

With NBC, I think it'd be a hearse.

Too soon?

He went to that heavy weight fight. He basically said "It was a really, really, really great fight." And that he was "soooooooooo excited to be there" Said he saw some celebrities and that was also "really, really, really great."

That's about it.

But Larry and Adamle are still there!!! Noooooooooo!!!!! Boyle joins Adamle at the desk. They pushed Larry off to a stand up role to do some stories. Maybe they're trying to ease them both out. Maybe they have to bleed out their contracts so they use them until they expire.

He's really not a part of this new format very much. They really don't need him. Looks like they're just give him one highlight story to read and now they have him read people's facebook/twitter comments. It's mainly Boyle and Adamle.

You don't need 3 anchors to handle a 30 minute highlight show. They need eye candy for the 95% male audience anyway. NBC 5 knows this well by all of their women hires through the years. I expect Sarah Kustok and Pat Boyle to eventually have this show. Larry and Adamle will be gone soon.

This was Boyle's first night on the show. I think Sarah Kustok signs on Friday. That's the plan, according to Whittaker as well.
