After three years as host of FSN Ohio's "Best Damn Sports Show Period," Chris Rose is leaving - and it's the best darn move the Shaker Heights native could make for his career.
Yes, the "BDSSP" gig brought Rose great exposure: he'd been on the popular nightly national show since its July 2001 debut. But it also came at a price - each evening, Rose had to babysit buffoonish "BDSSP" star Tom Arnold (a comedian who knows little about sports) and fellow contributor John Salley (a former NBA player whose egotistical rants suggest he hasn't yet accepted the "former" part).
It's now time the talented Rose had a chance to shine on his own, and leaving "BDSSP" offers that opportunity. Rose plans to do play-by-play on upcoming Arena Football League and NFL Europe telecasts - with an eye towards eventually doing NFL broadcasts on Fox.
