  I was told he is retiring to start a sports handicapping service with some unknown family member...
  I can't wait for this.

  
  Tortuga's article says he's moving to LV to start a family handicapping biz. Whatta fukn joke, but don't worry there are a few guys here that will subscribe. Do the the work and network. You don't need these 'shoemakers'. Musberger's resume includes being a caddie for JTGreek.

  This is clarification from the ESPN article via the above:
  
  "Musburger was unavailable for comment, but sources said he will host the main afternoon show on the network’s SiriusXM radio channel. He will not be a tout and sell picks."
  
  Might stimulate interest but doubtfully winners.

  Hopefully he won't have all the usual touts as his guests.

  Claims he hasn't bet a game he was broadcasting since the 70s...I assume he also has the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy on speed dial.

  Nice setting for Brent and crew. Near most of the restaurants so neither of these guys will continue to never miss a meal:toast: Oh, not you Vinny.

  Good luck with this but what anyone who can sell this(because my guess is SP won't give two shits about it) should be the salesman of the year...
