Before "PTI" or "First Take" or any of today's popular sports debate programs on TV, there was The Sports Reporters on ESPN. For nearly 30 years, every Sunday morning, top sportswriters exchanged in passionate, intelligent conversation about the major sports issues and personalities today. Now, anchored by Mitch Albom and Mike Lupica - two of The Sports Reporters longest-standing members - the mag... more

Popping in to share (and I’m sure I’m not the only one) that it’d be a great time for these talented journalists to return. Maybe one day a week? We’ve started the best few months of sports (in the USA) and the only thing missing is the voices of reason and entertainment to make sense of the crazy/fun world of sports.
Thinking about a return?!
Hoping everyone is well!
What happened to the Sports Reporters?
I grew up watching Sports Reporters on ESPN with my dad every Sunday. This show coupled with being a lifelong Detroit sports fan was part of the fabric of my youth! When I was 13, Mitch signed my Fab Five book at Summit Place Mall in Pontiac, MI. I have followed his career ever since. A few years ago I stumbled upon this podcast and I felt really fortunate to to be reunited with my favorite sports crew. They have been part of my weekly routine where I have easily listened to over 400 episode... more
Was hoping that the announcement that Last Thursday was the last show was an early April Fool’s joke. Will miss this podcast.
I have listened to every Sports Reporters podcast. Yes, all 474 episodes! A great show with wonderful hosts that provide great insights.
I was surprised and disappointed to hear that the episode on Thursday would be the final show. I want to thank Mitch, Mike and Bob for dedicating the time to offer a great show. I will certainly miss listening.
