Let’s say Rick and Douchebag miscalculated what side of history to be on. |

I thought it was fun early on but towards the end it wasn’t so much fir me. I don’t know, kind of echoes my feelings about the show. |

Like doing a poster tournament, the fun is in the reveal and the first round matches. After that, it's a chore and peters out. But as we've said, the funniest joke to come out of the Tournament of Bad was "People Who Say They Can't Find Work" winning just before the banks collapsed in 2008. |

Are you saying it’s bad because Matt is gone? |

Can't find the 2008 Tourney, but in it's place is QotY winner Shawty George Offman. |

agreed. the ToB isn't particularly great but just like WYC/FF, it was an attempt at having fun that sometimes had great moments. is QotY gone as well? man goff is miserable. |

oh wait i forgot. evernight at 5:30 they tell us they will be watching: a) bulls/cubs/hawks b) something on netflix c) a pot while making a broth out of galangal and kaffir lime while your child is watching sports. riveting and most of the time HILARIOUS radio. |

People miss B&B and hate what replaced it. Many have, such as myself, have stopped listening which you can see by their drop in ratings and a lack of discussion on this board compared to what B&B produced. |

People still love talking about anything Dan or Jason says. |

Their ratings are pretty much where they’ve always been. |

It's almost a poem. |

Combination of Terry being gone and then replacing him with Goff It was not good well before that, Paterno was roughly the crossing point into mediocrity, and then once Terry was off for long stretches, it was really not worth listening to at all. |
