Dan Patrick to leave ESPN; next career move unknown
Dan Patrick, who said he wanted to breathe “different air” is leaving ESPN after 18 years with the network.
His final radio broadcast will be Aug. 17.
“I think it has been there the last couple of years,” Patrick said about his decision to leave. “I was sort of fighting that urge. I didn’t want to take what I was doing for granted, and I actually thought I was. I wasn’t getting better doing SportsCenter and radio, and I wanted to be true to the product.”
Patrick, 51, became a household name and face as a SportsCenter anchor from 1989-2006. Since 1999 he also has done The Dan Patrick Show on radio for the network that has 700 radio affiliates and has been a host on the NBA show on ABC.

Irish bookie pays out as cops bust ‘wrong’ Gore
An Irish bookmaker who offered 14-to-1 odds that Al Gore would be the next high-profile American to be arrested paid out on Friday after police detained the former vice president’s son, also named Al.
Having not specified which Al bettors could back, Paddy Power said some of the 50 or so people who placed money on the rank outsider being arrested had been quick to claim their winnings.
“We got a good stoning thanks to the vice president’s son,” the company said in a statement.
The “bizarre coincidence” would cost it more than $13,600.
