Sports Talk

it's terrible, anthony is not interested and therefore hardly participates, opie obviously knows the bare minimum and is boring to listen to when he goes through the same recap of last night's Sports, nobody gives a shit it's garbage and the show immediately improves when the subject matter is diverted from Sports

This goes for music as well. Was his addiction THAT bad that sports and music were wiped from his life for a decade?

I tuned out. If I wanted to listen to a sports show, I would.

I am not fond of sports.

Then Jim acts like he's such a passionate football fan when he trashes Tony Romo. Boooo.

How about Opie thinking they heat the numbers on the snow covered fields.

I mean... they're not huge sports guys, but by and large they don't act like they are, either - it's not like they're doing sabermetric analysis or anything. They're going with the casual fan approach, which is what the significant majority of listeners are going to look for.

The chant segment was killing me.

If I were awake, I would have called in with this great example. (0:34)

These are the same guys that will be incensed when the red carpet isn't rolled out for them to attend the super bowl. Listen to last year's show the day after the super bowl they spent 2 minutes discussing the game, and the next 58 discussing the half time show.

Think about how many times have they mocked sports radio. A lot of you must be bigger fans than me, why would you ever think they would do sports talk more than half-assed? Jimmy does a character where he talks sports, it's hilarious, because he sounds just like those guys, but he isn't saying anything intelligent. If you are on 4 hours a day, sometimes you mention some sports, what a trivial thing to complain about.

Grade A ship steering if you ask me.

ship

What's that? Tss tss

Opie's sports talk is sort of like Anthony's race talk. Opie hardly pays attention, and Anthony obviously knows the bare minimum and is boring to listen too and the way he goes through the same recaps (zimmerman, knockout game, guns) it gets old. Nobody gives a shit and the show immediately improves right after they move on to something else.

dynamite observation, thanks for letting us know

I'm really enjoying your positivity lately.

You are a sweetheart, thank you.

Keep it up and you are going to win my personal upvote award.

You're warming the cockles of my heart.

I think you have read me wrong. I ain't doing nothing with your cockles.

Well fuck, now what the hell am I supposed to do with all this peanut butter?

I'm sure you have a few gems for ideas.
