In the 1990s, Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann put ESPN's Sunday SportsCenter on the map with their great repartee and tongue-in-cheek style. Now, Patrick is leaving ESPN after 18 years. Why? He was starting to take the job for granted. That's never a good place for anyone to be. Whatever you do--from taking out the garbage to being with your significant other to anchoring a national sports broadcast--it has to be fresh in some way. Droning on and mailing it in everyday shuts you off from the experiences of life, the little things that make it at least tolerable. Patrick did what we all should do: recognize there's something amiss, and make a change.
