Charissa Thompson is new co-Host of ESPN’s Sports Nation

This is probably old news, but I just saw Charissa Thompson taking over as co-host of “Sports Nation” while Michelle Beadle is off doing the Olympics for NBC. I’ve always liked Thompson, and she’s an interesting replacement for Beadle, mostly because she brings a more aggressive style than Beadle, who I think spends 90% of her time playing the straight man to that Colin Something Guy.

I’m not sure what this means for Charissa’s “Numbers Never Lie”. I haven’t really seen much of that show, mostly because I don’t know when it comes on. “Sports Nation” is on at 4:00 p.m. where I live, so I’m usually home by the time it comes on.

Anyways, in honor of the smoking hot Charissa’s new gig, some new (or new-ish — to me, at least) pics are in order. Pics from Twitter, via, via.

    I think Charissa Thompson is doing a fine job so far on “Sports Nation”. I enjoy her playful and confident on-air personality, and she is very attractive (the way her eyebrows match her eyes hypnotize me, they are so perfect!).

    Last time I checked Michelle Beadle is no longer part of the ESPN family and has moved on to hosting one of the entertainment shows. I think it was Access Hollywood and that is also why and how she is doing Olympic coverage with NBC.

    Ms. Thompson has more talent then hosting Sports Nation and thats all I am going to say about that. Also, I don’t want her to move from Los Angeles.
