Does Larry think using the term "roundtable" somehow makes a segment more intelligent or substantial? Listening today, it seems their roundtable discussion consists of Larry, Hampton, and an occasional caller. Much like "The Pulse", I don't see how this is any different than the rest of the damn show. *edit* Apparently OB will join them to complete the roundtable discussion on the Bears. Oh boy... I think Hood used to use that term, too. |

OK, we get it. You're not a fan of Holmes. But now you're just going out of your way to find something, no matter how inane, to criticize him for. Didn't I hear Buffone, too? Let's see, four people kicking ideas around ... hm, yep, sounds like a round-table discussion to me. |

Let's see, four people kicking ideas around ... hm, yep, sounds like a round-table discussion to me. Do I have a glut of posts in this section? It isn't so much the number of people that will comprise a roundtable discussion I'm questioning, it's the motivation behind using the term. I changed the station before they could get the segment underway, so I didn't know that Buffone was going to be included. As long as I'm at it, having Bears specific participants who aren't on other shows several times throughout the week would be nice as a few fresh voices/opinions might be interesting. *EDIT* And yes, it is kind of nitpicky but it's something I noticed before (and like I said I think Hood did it too...at least when he was on 'SCR) and I always thought it was on odd choice of words as I associate it with a discussion of something of significant importance and not sports-talk. |

Ah, now I get it. Why didn't ya say that in the first place? |
