Then there's Richard Chamberlain:

They're saving themselves for the return of American Gladiators.

We should look as good as they do when we're their age (a little cosmetic "s" can make that happen).

The only ESPN person who could host this, IMHO, is Kenny Mayne. There is no way in the world Dan Patrick can get this job.

Then how do you explain the apparent fact that he was asked?

The same way he explained that there's no way in you know what that Drew Carey's getting the job.

Which has me wondering if Adam Wade has been considered.
Surely you mean Adam West, don't you?

At least Wade had a hosting job in MUSICAL CHAIRS (then CBS came to their senses and restored TATTLETALES to the post-MG7x spot).

I've been thinking about it.  This might work out. Let's reinvent the show for a new generation.    Maybe have Pat Kiernan host (off-screen) and have Dan Patrick and Lisa Guererro/Dergan/Whatever do play-by-play.
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

Don't know why I'm doing this, but Rich Eisen's working for NFL Network these days, where he hosts their "Total Access" studio show.  They're based in LA, so if he was offered "TPIR," it would be in the neighborhood.

Now to add more fuel to the fire--Dan Patrick is leaving ESPN after 18 years.  His final ESPN Radio program will air August 17.

Story here, among other places.

Although a Google News check shows that he repeated on today's program that he didn't audition for "TPIR" and is not interested in the job.

I think I know what job he IS interested in - the vacancy created by Don Imus when he put his foot in it last spring. The Westwood One folks would be stupid not to get him, as the network (and WFAN) have been foundering with a variety of guest hosts over the last three months.

I know that and you know that.  But other people didn't know that.  Just trying to have a little fun.

Is Patrick's radio show any good? He seems too dry for morning radio.

When I listen to it, it's not that bad. (Considering Dan Patrick is opposite Randi Rhodes and I'm an Air America fan, my choice for the afternoon is clear.)

I think he could do well in that slot on The FAN and syndicated across the CBS network...it would be wise to sign him if they give themselves the opportunity. (considering CBS/Westwood One's recent hires and format decisions in NYC, I dunno...)
