“I want to make TV that will lean on humanity even more,” says the host of the daily sports debate show, who also contributes to Good Morning America. “Now, I host a debate show and I want to continue doing that because I enjoy that. That is part of my personality. I like the spirit behind that and I still like watching games. But I want to make a show that is about sports being a thread in people’s lives that embraces their humanity and, in fact, can be something that helps them go through the human condition.”
