I agree that it is more logical, but not that it is more logical than just leaving it as is - which makes me think something else is going on. I have not watched the show in a while, but it always seemed the Mikes really were good friends - but maybe there is some friction in their relationship? Or maybe Greenie has always seemed to want to know more SportsCenter type stuff?, or one of them needs a different day part to make their family schedule work? Plus, behind everything, I am always suspicious that, even though it seems counter to their ratings self-interest, ESPN is always looking for ways to undercut personality cults that develop around their on-air talent.
