I'm getting sick of Josh Pate. It's not his takes, its his style. It's not his takes that I find bad. He seems to be right/wrong about as much as the next media schlub, which is to say about 50/50. 

No, it's him, personally. He's so full of himself, so arrogant. Perhaps YouTube success has gone to his head. I just watched a part of his Ohio State-Texas prediction show and he just really rubs me the wrong way.  

I won't be watching his shit anymore. 

I know, I know ... "Dear Facebook" and all that.  I just had to get it off my chest.  I feel better. Thank you.

I like his gambling stuff 

I listen to his oped CFB news takes on 2xs speed though because he requires 10 minutes to get a 1 minute point across, which gets old fast on a one-man show

Also he visited A&M a few offseason ago and got VIP treatment, and he’s treated them with kid’s gloves ever since

I have a love/hate thing with him.  Currently,  he's whoring himself to every pod around. Not sure if it is marketing or he's paid for it.  He's now too close. Too many contacts in media and blindly believes everything they say.  Probably has to fence sit on every team or just flat out say he likes them in order to not lose access. And boy does he love that access. On the flip side, I think he has good 30,000 foot takes on the sport and genuinely cares about it. It's the team level that he fails. Pate goes to a practice. Comes back and that team is now a contender because he knows because he was there. 

I saw a youtube short of him on a private plane going to Penn St. The clip was all about him. Maybe that's the point but he's getting pretty high on his own supply.

None of my friends listen to him so I don't have anyone to complain to so here I am.

Doesn’t bother me. But I don’t really listen to any national media on college football because I have found most to be worthless know-nothings.  So I’ve got no idea what he says.

His style and his attitude have definitely changed over the years imo

Josh Pate to me is at the extreme opposite end of the spectrum to people like Cowherd and Bayless. Those kind of guys will have extreme & ridiculous opinions (that no sane person could possibly believe) just to stir the pot. Pate hedges in every direction and seems afraid to take a really hard stand on the fortunes of any team. Pate is always optimistic about the season-long outlook for programs like aggie, but hedges just enough to cover any potential outcome.
