Yeah. There is something about Mully that bugs me too.

I also hate when he goes "we now go out to the phone lines" when he has a guest on the line.

You say that when you go to callers and use the plural "phone lines". Don't say that when you go to guests. Just say "we are now joined by". I know it doesn't matter but it bugs me.

He also says "and um, and um," while he speaks. He does it alot. That's annoying too.

I think it's easily the best sports talk show in the city. As dolphin says, it's refreshing to hear hosts who are actually, I don't know, informed. And they are funny, too, though their funniest stuff flows from the shifting tone of the show rather than their "bits", which frequently fall flat.

There is so little sports talk I can even listen to that I am happy to have Mully & Hanley on the air. They know their stuff, they aren't arrogant about it and it actually is fun to listen to. I'm not listening for shock and awe. I want to know what is going on and go one level deeper than I can get elsewhere. They do that. Mulligan is actually one of the smarter guys on sports radio and brings civility to a medium that often is offensive to the listener.
