CBS Sports Introducing All Female Panel Sports Talk Show

CBS Sports is set to make history with a new show that will be debuting soon. A talk show that will feature all women discussing SPORTS. Think if “The View” met ESPN’s “Pardon The Interruption.”

“We’re really excited and proud to be launching the first ever all female sports talk show,” David Berson, the President of CBS Sports told The Big Lead. “We have been discussing and developing the show for well over a year. Internally and externally, there’s been universal enthusiasm and across-the-board support.”

Details at the moment are under wraps, so we don’t know if there is one central host, or exactly how the format will break down, but here are some of the names that are reportedly involved.

CBS Sports veteran Lesley Visser, Dana Jacobson (who previously worked at ESPN), CBS NFL analyst Amy Trask, and sideline reporters Allie LaForce, Tracy Wolfson and Jenny Dell.

The first thing that immediately jumps out at me is that there are no women of color on the panel. Hopefully that will change. Cheryl Miller, Pam Oliver, Lisa Salters are all names I’d like to see added into the mix.

Also, CBS Sports needs to hit me up! I’d be a great addition to the cast!
