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.

The bottom of the barrel is, was, and will always be Bill Simonson.

- Got fired in Oklahoma for saying a black coach sounds like Buckwheat on the air.
- Got fired in Texas for claiming that his producer's landlord was exposing herself with lap dances at a party, and them got the station sued over those remarks.
- Got fired in Chicago for getting his rear end kicked outside a White Sox game.
- Is now in Grand Rapids, where you have fun incidents like this:

Bill loving Mcallister from the 97.1 morning show is one of the biggest idiots in history and he has managed to corrupt Stony like grima wormtongue. One time, because they never talk about sports, they were talking about horses for some unknown reason. He thought europeans did not have horses until they came to america.

I....what the gently caress

I agree that Bill "Huge" Simonson is just awful and in general a piece of poo poo. For some reason Huge is broadcast throughout the entire loving state. The funniest part of his show is how thin-skinned he is, he cannot handle criticism at all and whines on air about it whenever people start giving him poo poo.

Ryan Schuiling is the equivalent of your idiot friend who thinks he's got this sports thing figured out but has no sort of opinion apart from blind homerism. It's like someone gave a 12 year old the mic for 2 hours a day.

Huge is currently on a jihad against Schuiling, it is pretty funny, Simonson might lose a lot of sponsors over this.

Hahaha seriously??? Maybe now I'll tune in so I can hear them go back and forth.

Someone has been sending all of Simonson's old incidents to his sponsors. He is testier than usual.

Good poo poo happened on Valenti and Foster when a station employee brought flowers from a wedding to woo a female employee.

Dan Leach is helping to drive the Tigers and Wings to another station, after he bought a prostitute on the air and bragged about it during a postgame show.

Cowherd is kind of unique in that he is actually a bad person and not just a lame sports guy.

Before the Michigan-Utah game, Cowherd tried to corner Jim Harbaugh so Harbaugh would acknowledge him, but Jim wouldn't even look at him.
