Change at The Score

Producer Richard Garner, the man who foisted the egregious Drive This on an unsuspecting public, is leaving The Score.

In an email to Score staff, Garner says he's leaving to pursue a web-based global TV initiative that aims to ``provide programming that focuses on the many similarities that all human beings share instead of the few differences."

Sounds like a definite upgrade from a satellite radio show that prided itself in featuring as many obscenities as possible.

I'm assuming that "egregious" does not mean innovating or groundbreaking.

Simulcasting radio shows on TV is cheap programming, that may market the show to a certain extent but does nothing for the visual medium.

Garner always seemed like he was on drugs. He really never knew the sports stories of the day either.

Garner is a savvy sports person .. not to mention a very learned and wise journalist with a deep history in his endeavours both here and abroad. I would advise you do not judge this book by his "Hardcore" cover.

To all of you wannabe, high moral types who can't handle a few 'obscenities' don't make a point, stop being a hypocrite. We should be thankful there's a guy like Richard Garner out there to sort through the mainstream, corporatley-biased, editied BS we are spoon-fed each day! WE ALL swear, and there's much more socially offensive nonsense out there, like the Rush Limbaugh show. So lets no get caught under the illusion that profane language is not somehow deserved, or warranted. You dont like it, dont watch it!
