Figure this might as well be here since we're talking podcasts. The Grantland NFL podcast has started their season predictions by doing a division twice a week. It's pretty funny because they recorded them a week beforehand and started with the NFC West, recorded a day before Aldon Smith went off the reservation and then the AFC East went up the day after IK punched his ticket to Buffalo. Anyway, it's good poo poo.

I rarely listen to sports radio but when I'm driving around back home I like Mike Valenti and Terry Foster. It's amusing to listen to Valenti be really mean to dumb callers and of course he delivered the infamous "MAKE PLAYS!" rant/soliloquy all those years ago. I live in Chicago now and my roommate just walks around with Boers and Bernstein blasting out of his phone at any possible hour. They're smug and annoying. I don't get why he likes them, and even he thinks sports radio is stupid but loves listening to it for reasons that he can't articulate.

For anyone here that wants to poo poo on MIKE Golic? Just remember his brother is a pretty unapologetic racist radio host in NEOhio, so keep that in mind. (that there's a WORSE Golic on the radio). I don't know...92.3 has had a decent thing going here with the Ken Carman Show. I said HAD because they moved him away from the 7 to midnight shift where he had a great co-host/engineer dude in one Kenny Kidd, and a lot more freedom to goof off. They stuck him in the morning show slot and he's not been as good. We get stuck with "The Bull and the Fox" during the mid-day shift which has been loving AWFUL for a long time. Literally it's just some guy from New York screeching about how the Browns "SUCK. THEY'RE AWFUL. I HATE JUSTIN GILBERT. I HATE JOHNNY MANZIEL. THEY'RE A DISGRACE". Like that gets on your nerves.

NC-17 posted:The worst part is their commercials they run during the show. Awkward live reads are a radio staple. Living in Philly I am glad we have two local sports stations. One basically running 24/7 and the other about 12 hours of local content before it goes national syndicated at midnight. Having listened to sports radio more than regularly over the last 15 years I can tell you that national broadcasts suck. They're bad. Even the worst homer local show brings something a little unique than the most obvious hot takes on a national level with little level of depth. Our local shows are generally not great anymore. WIP has turned it's afternoon drive time into a Howard Stern / Sports hybrid. Across the dial has been just as bad. Yet I still listen for the calls and local opinions.

Just now catching up with Bomani. Really like Shannon as someone for him to bounce off of. I'm still amazed that whoever edits the podcasts 1) leaves minutes of silence in the middle, and 2) still thinks buttrock guitar riffs and bells fit with the tone of the show.

So Olin Kreutz and Big Cat Williams are replacing Doug and OB for Bears post game. I honestly dont know what to think. I dont recall ever having heard either on the radio before, but nothing will be able to replace Doug and OBs pure post game rage. Though Big Cat does have one of the most linemany voice I have heard. Im shocked that Pat Mannelly is not involved in the post game show. I figured that would be a no brainer.

Doug Gottlieb is great until he does interviews or opens his mouth about almost literally anything not sports related, both of which happen way too often. So basically not great. Local show has a writer famous for being friends with Brett Favre 20 years ago as credentials, and Harry Sydney (who actually DOES have creds) who stutters and mispronounces names and things so badly he sounds like Adam Sandler doing "The Excited Southerner" on his comedy albums. He once spent half of a two hour show calling Kaepernick "Copernicus" after being corrected multiple times.

My drive home is usually 2:30 - 3 so its the barren wasteland of Twin Cities radio programming, but it has given me an appreciation for how vast the audio book selection is in the Hennepin County libraries. I miss the good 'ole days when I went home at 11p-12a and I could listen to Rob Dibble and Amy Van Dyken.

So this is interesting, the FM carrier of ESPN Radio abruptly became an alternative rock station, 104.3 The Shark. The AM frequency still exists, but obviously the quality sucks. Let's see how the gang is taking it: (show summary for each segment)  The first hour is worth a listen simply for you realizing that the people making the show found out at the same time as listeners that the station was switching formats. You also have Lebatard desperately trying to find the line so he can toe it because apparently there are rules about what he could ad couldn't say about it.

I still wish whatever rear end in a top hat broke my power antenna dies in a fire. I get 1500 for like ten minutes heading into work. I like the variety, but Reusse has one of the worst radio voices I've ever heard.

I listen to Bucky Godbolt and Erin Hogan out of Austin on 104.9 the horn. They're fun and relaxed and mostly keep ~hot takes~ to a minimum. e- Bucky recruited / coached Ricky Williams at Texas, so that's pretty cool. Although buck is a bit of a dumbass sometimes.

Some guy has been filling in for the Morning Men the last few days and it's been a pretty listenable show. Today he was talking about Madden vs old games and how much better the old games were. Tomorrow, however, we're back to Patriots apologist/Tom Brady concubine Evan Cohen and I'll have to listen to Stand-up Comedy or something.

A classic from 2006, Mike Valenti loses his drat mind after MSU suffers yet another disastrous loss. He has since grown up significantly over the past decade, I think he is like 24 here. Valenti and Foster is routinely the most entertaining sports radio in Detroit, although their station forces them to do way too much taking calls and reading texts then doing interviews. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWmXe1w6XBk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjGxfiebmuo Something from yesterday that made me laugh. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kpit8cW0o4

Valenti and Foster is great. I wish they would get a Lansing affiliate. Here we're stuck with some local Grand Rapids guys or MSU blowhard Jack Ebling. We also have the pleasure of someone giving hot-take machine Ryan Schuiling a show. He's bottom of the barrel when it comes to local radio hosts. Basically don't expect anything decent on the radio outside of the national shows if you're in mid or west Michigan.

Man, that game is still the worst I've ever felt after watching a sporting event (bonus points as I had seats in row 4 of the student section); Smith should have had to walk across the street and pack his poo poo up in that thunderstorm immediately after blowing that lead. This rant is still my favorite and pretty perfectly captured the feelings of every Spartan fan at the time.
