Kinda. I just needed to stop listening to it as a sports show and listen to it as a parody of a sports show. The constant racism angles that Dan brings up get kinda repetitive, but the other segments are great. The bucket of death/grid of humiliation are awesome.

Yeah it is very much not a Serious Sports Show™ and I think that's why I like it.

I love that they don't let guys give boring athlete answers. Dan would rather do no interviews at all than do boring Mike and Mike style interviews and I appreciate that.

Glad you're enjoying it a little more than you originally did

I've always looked at them as the Daily Show for sports. They are mostly taking a piss but they come up with quality points a lot.

As far as Cowherd he's like someone gave a pile of garbage the ability to speak and the first thing it did was call up a stylist to get a ridiculous dye job.

I've been a cowherd fan for the last few years, but I must say I have really been enjoying listening to lebatard and stugotz. they are highly entertaining.

I'd agree with that, and add that they do a good job treating serious problems (CTE, sexual assault, mental/emotional trauma) seriously and not-serious things (sports). It's amazing when you listen to something like Mike & Mike and see all of the above completely reversed.

The Call in this video is one of the greatest Sports Radio Calls I have ever heard. This was on a Radio show yesterday talking about that Ditka in a Packer's sweater commercial. And It's goddamn fantastic.

http://sports.cbslocal.com/show/670-the-score/video-3316252-ditka-betrayed-us/

Call's like 50 seconds in. Jason Goff is the best sports radio guy in Chicago.

I have to say, the donut challenge between Stugotz and Golic has provided more entertaining content that I expected. Golic is about to attempt to eat 36 mini powder donuts in the next hour and if he does it, Stugotz has to shave his head/chest/etc.

hahahaha golic just did it in like 10 minutes while staying in the conversation

he ate an omelette beforehand

golic is a fat idiot I love it

stugotz took 3 hours to try and eat the same amount and failed





edit: he just went offset to get the bag of donuts and eat more

Does 105.1 have a morning show? I am rarely in the metro area during the morning drive and whatever they have on 97.1 is hot garbage.

It's so nice to be able to listen and laugh during Lebatard instead of having Cowherd grind on about everything that is wrong and not white about the world today. Though knowing he is losing his poo poo over Iowa being ranked so high just makes me want to cheer for Iowa.

Lol, the Lions are moving from 97.1 to WJR and allegedly part of the reason was because Mike Valenti is too mean and they wanted him fired.

I just found out that Giants OL Geoff Schwartz has a podcast specifically about offensive line play, which sounds like it could be pretty interesting. Just subscribed, has anyone given it a listen yet? Either way, I'll report back with a review.


Also I saw that Nate Burleson has a podcast from the NFL Network and that has to be good, right? Nate is so affable and charismatic on TV and makes some good points when I see him on there, so I'm sure this will get added to the rotation.

Anyway, this thread should have more activity because I am bored at my desk
