told Sports Illustrated <\/a>of \u201cMike & Mike.\u201d \u201cThat that\u2019s been pretty much documented. But somewhat like my football career, when I got cut by the Houston Oilers and went to the Philadelphia Eagles, I didn\u2019t reminisce about the Houston Oilers. I was playing for the Philadelphia Eagles. The same thing when I left Philadelphia to go to Miami. You move on and you study the task at hand.<\/p>\n\u201cAs far as the relationship with Greeny, we don\u2019t keep in touch much in all honesty, but occasionally we\u2019ll check in. Quite honestly, mostly it\u2019s about how the kids are doing, how his kids are doing, how my kids are doing, because I was growing my family during \u2018Mike & Mike\u2019 and Greeny had his kids during \u2018Mike & Mike\u2019 and we were always a very family-oriented show, so kids were always involved.\u201d<\/p>\n

Golic and his son, Mike Golic Jr., are returning to ESPN to host a new show called \u201cThe Golics,\u201d which will begin on Monday. <\/p>\n
The senior Golic is returning after six years away from ESPN. <\/p>\n
His first stint was from 1995 to 2020.<\/p>\n
\u201cAgain, we don\u2019t keep in touch much, but he texted me about coming back to ESPN and was very happy for me, and certainly for Mike [Jr.],\u201d Golic Sr. continued. \u201cAs I said, we talk about the kids, so it\u2019s cordial\u2026We certainly meshed well on the show. So, it\u2019s not very frequent we keep in touch, but when we do, it\u2019s cordial.\u201d<\/p>\n
Golic\u2019s description of a cordial but distant relationship between the two seems to indicate that the tension that was originally reported at the end of \u201cMike & Mike\u201d has lessened. <\/p>\n

Both former co-hosts previously stated they were frustrated when the news of their breakup reached listeners before they had a chance to announce it on their own terms.<\/p>\n
Golic said the year-and-a-half before wrapping was \u201ceyebrow-raising\u201d and that the show\u2019s future was the \u201cworst-kept secret for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt would\u2019ve been nice if we had been the ones to tell our audience that we were going to be going on to do separate things,\u201d Greenberg said<\/a>. \u201cInstead, the overwhelming majority of our audience had already heard that by the time we were ready to tell them. That was the part that bothered me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cMike & Mike\u201d had a 17-year run on ESPN Radio and its networks from 2000 to 2017.
