ESPN SportsNation’s Michelle Beadle
First of all, Yes, I realize it’s been ages since I’ve updated the site, please stop emailing me. Now, let’s get to the business at hand: I’ve been seeing Michelle Beadle on ESPN a lot lately, mostly because the net is hyping up her new sports show SportsNation, which she co-hosts with some guy. Bonus brownie points: she’s a fellow UT alum — albeit from San Antonio. But hey, close enough.
Her bio from ESPN:
Michelle Beadle joined ESPN on June 1, 2009, as co-host with Colin Cowherd of the studio show SportsNation on ESPN2 after spending time with 1050 ESPN New York as the New York SportsCenter anchor for ESPN Radio’s The Michael Kay Show. Beadle, who was the pre- and postgame reporter for the New Jersey Nets, also has been a studio anchor, reporter and host for the YES Network on shows such as the Emmy Award-winning Ultimate Road Trip; SportsLife NYC; and Yankees on Deck.
In addition to her work at YES, Michelle was hired in 2007 by People Magazine and People.com, for which she hosts the online feature What You Missed over the Weekend. She has been a Red Carpet reporter for the Golden Globes, Grammy Awards, SAG Awards and the Tony Awards, and contributed for People Magazine on television, appearing on The Today Show, The Early Show, Extra, Access Hollywood and Entertainment Tonight.
Michelle has been the host for Major League Baseball Production’s magazine show Cathedrals of the Game, which brings viewers an inside look at baseball’s most historic stadiums and venues. She was a feature reporter for the NFL Films syndicated program NFL Under the Helmet, which gave an up-close look at the players, coaches and fans of the NFL.
Beadle previously was a primary host and anchor for College Sports Television (CSTV), where she co-hosted the network’s flagship program, The #1 College Sports Show, in addition to CSTV pre- and postgame sports shows and specials.
Also, she hosted the Animal Planet series Animal Planet Report; co-hosted the Travel Channel’s Beach Week series; hosted the Discovery Channel reality series Get Packing and the network’s one-hour specials Inside Orlando’s Resorts and Outrageous Room Service; and hosted I Want Your Job, an original series on the Fine Living Network.
Beadle got her start in television as a reporter for the San Antonio Spurs and Fox Sports Net (Big Game Hunters) and soon moved on to TNN, now known as Spike TV, where she worked as a sideline reporter on the network’s coverage of Professional Bull Riding (PBR). During her time at TNN, Michelle also worked freelance as a reporter for ESPN’s Titan Games and CBS Sports on its coverage of the PBR.
Michelle, who now splits time between New York City and Hartford, Conn., is a graduate of University of Texas-San Antonio.
Also props to Waterdrinker for reminding me of her.

Michelle is fantastic! Smart, pretty, funny and knows sports. It doesn’t get any better than her.
August 5th, 2009 at 9:01 pm
Cute kid. Seems like Cowherd’s kid sister.
August 8th, 2009 at 12:14 am
Michelle is the total package. She is hot, funny, and she knows her sports. Out of all the sports chicks out there, I think I have to put her on top.

Yeah? You and what army?
August 20th, 2009 at 8:01 am
She is really hot!! She is also smart and quick witted.
BUT!!!!! You can tell shes worked for the YES network on Sportsnation because she clearly favors the Yankees. As a Red Sox fan its great to look at her rocking body…..but we all wish she would shut her mouth and stop sucking on the Yankee power tit.
P.S……She hates the Pats too!!!
August 20th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
She is very funny. It’s nice to see a beautiful woman into sports as she is. Her knowledge is amazing. I can say that I tuned in just to watch her, and see what she comes up with next. congrats to espn for this find.
August 20th, 2009 at 11:44 pm
I just heard her comments on ESPN about Michael Vick, the debate was whether or not you would support his return. Basically, because “of how she feels about dogs” she “would never forgive him for what he did” and therefore not support him.
Yeah whatever, who cares what you think?
I bet you’re just a perfect human being….right?….right
Get over your righteous self blonde!
let he who hath no sin throw the first stone or should I say Bone.

I would love have a couple beers with her and watch a football game. My next life I want a girl that loves football and beer!
September 16th, 2009 at 3:53 pm
shes the best talk show host on tv sports or not. beautiful girl, smart, funny, and she actually knows sports about time you get a host with all those qualities.plus a ut grad hook ‘em horns.
September 17th, 2009 at 3:51 pm
I am in love with this woman. She is, as others have stated, smart, funny, and gorgeous. She and Colin have great chemistry…definitely a great TV show couple.
September 19th, 2009 at 2:22 pm
Shes ok but a little 2 manly for me
September 22nd, 2009 at 4:38 pm
Perky and smart, she’s the perfect counterpoint to the argumentative and sometimes smug Colin Cowherd. Michelle can stay with Herd retort-for-riposte and stuff him when the situation arises. She’s attractive, professional and very fast on her feet. ESPN has a true win-win proposition here: Michelle Beadle and this new show. Let’s hope Michelle eventually graduates from SportsNation and its motley message-board geek audience.
October 6th, 2009 at 3:52 pm
Stunning. Always quick on her feet. She has a lot of knowledge and uses it very tastefully. She is breathtaking and is the by far the best female broadcaster to ever be on the T.V. Keep it up!
October 15th, 2009 at 4:21 pm
Michelle is very eloquent and has a high level of sports knowledge. She knows how to state her opinion without being overpowering. Is very attractive with excellent features, a terrific smile and a super body.
October 21st, 2009 at 12:09 am
I got hooked as soon as I flipped to SportsNation and saw her. Then I actually listened to her and now I’m hooked on watching the show on a regular basis. Quick-witted was my first impression of Michelle. Then I noticed her acumen in sports matters. Finally, I saw how she can easily dish with Colin Cowherd. How can you not love this chick!
October 22nd, 2009 at 3:06 pm
beatoff material!
November 6th, 2009 at 10:40 am
Michelle, I want to personally thank-you for wearing A-Rod’s Yankees Jersey last night on SN. You looked so Hot, in your Yankee Pinstrips. You did the Yankee Nation proud. Keep up the good work. Will definately keep watching you on Sports Nation…….

Michelle,
Hi, it’s me again, Kerry G. I wanting to thank you again for wearing THE PINSTRIPES. But, what I would really like, is for you to let me buy the Yankee Jersey you wore the other night on Sports Nation. I am a die hard, long time Yankees Fan and would love to have the Yankee Jersey you wore that night. Please make my day.

Michelle is the most incredible woman to EVER walk the earth – she’s a 72, on a scale of 1 to 10. I never thought I’d love someone more than Linda Cohn, but Michelle is unreal.

Good morning Michelle,
I’ll bet you would never hear this from a straight man, but here goes. If ESPN is making you wear dresses, tell them to stop! Your on air persona has changed. You don’t look as comfortable. You are a model of beauty and one of the few women that I respect to watch and listen to in the sports world. But if ESPN is trying to “soften” you up, they have it all wrong.
Thank you for your daily knowledge and smiles.
December 16th, 2009 at 12:38 pm
stop wearing dresses? are you kidding me? we love Michelle’s legs! More like stop wearing boots and wear heels
December 18th, 2009 at 12:29 am
You are so beautiful, If you are ever in Huntington Beach come to the beach and play some volleyball, I have a good friend Misty May we can get a game with her, or maybe some golf,
December 18th, 2009 at 4:59 pm
To Dustin Pedoria, she does not favor the Yankees at all. When she worked for YES she worked as the Nets sideline reporter. She went to University of Texas and is an avid Longhorn fan and Spurs fan. Also, if you had the chance to be an announcer are you telling me you wouldn’t show the soxs any bias what-so-ever? Come on, man!
December 22nd, 2009 at 10:38 pm
SMART,HOT,KNOWS HER STUFF,HOT,BETTER THAN THE REST OF SPORTSWOMEN OUT THERE,HOT,SHE AND COLIN MAKE A GOOD COMBO,HOT,WOULD LIKE TO TAKE HER TO MOM’S HOME,HOT,LOVES TO EAT REAL FOOD,DID I MENTION SHES HOT? SKIRTS JEANS WHO CARES LOOKS HOT ON EVERYTHING SHE WEARS I JUST LUV HER HOTTTTTT!!
December 23rd, 2009 at 4:36 pm
One of the sexiest things in the world is a gorgeous woman who knows her sports. Michelle Beadle & Sage Steele, mmmmmmmmmmmmm………
December 24th, 2009 at 3:16 am
You know Colin wants to mount her like a horny herd of cows!
I wonder how many times she had to stoop him to land that job! 
December 26th, 2009 at 1:45 am
She used to be in Porn. I have many of her vids. OK, that’s not true. I just like thinking about it.
December 29th, 2009 at 4:53 pm
One of the most beautiful , funny and knowledgeable (did I spell that right?) female TV host I’ve ever seen. She should have her own show.
January 4th, 2010 at 9:41 pm
Beauty and brains in the same package?With Michelle Beadle, you bet!
January 6th, 2010 at 2:56 am
C’mon… to the guy who’s on Vick’s nuts: SHUT UP! The guy is a dog-killer and he deserves to rot in prison. He should have never gotten a second chance.
January 6th, 2010 at 2:56 am
OH, and Michelle is such a hottie. Gotta love her.
January 6th, 2010 at 4:58 pm
Hey Bob, youre an idiot. You like Vick should be beaten, drown then buried in your back yard
January 13th, 2010 at 4:31 pm
Wow! Chuck J. BHS would reallly be suprised.. However, I’m not. You always had this this in you. Have the last laugh always. I love your show.
A real old counslor.

There was once Something About Mary,but Mary can’t touch the Beedle because there is MORE THAN SOMETHING ABOUT MICHELE cuz she is the real deal.I love HER show to death !!!!
January 26th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
In a world where there are so many over hyped so called “beautiful people” (Angelina Jolie #1 on the overrated list of beauties) Michelle Beadle is definitley one of the top five out there today. She is the total package. We not only go crazy for her insane beauty, but her brains and humor as well. Sorry to say, but many beautiful women take themselves way too seriously and as a result they have the personality of a shoe. Beadle is a breathe of fresh air and as a result is a perfect 10.
February 1st, 2010 at 11:37 am
I love to eat her
