Caught a second of ESPN's draft coverage, but as soon as I heard Mike Greenberg's voice I PTFB.

Pay the fewest bucks. It’s a way to say you’ll no longer subscribe to ESPN+ if they prominently feature Greeney.

I did the same with Discovery+ when they stopped pushing Guy Fieri content.

Basically, who causes you to push the change the channel when you hear/see them.

Kind of wide ranging for me, Tucker Carlson, Boobs Powell/the old Astro's guy on Cubs TV, Trevor Noah, Stevie Nicks.. it goes on and on

Greeney, LeBron, Joe Scarborough, any of the harpies from the view in any context, oddly enough Hannity, Trevor Noah, Jimmy Kimmel (really anybody on the Utah Jamz)…most cable news people.

Anybody with a strong commitment to talking points (which again…cable news). That must be such a soul sucking, mind numbing job.

Dick Vitale was an all timer. If he was announcing Neil Armstrong's steps on the moon, I'd PTFB.

HATE the my pillow guy and his commercials, find myself distracted by the certificate he has in the background, from what I can read on the big screen I bought my mom (she has Fox News on 24/7 in the background) it looks like he gave it to himself, that and the uber creepy lion/Jesus painting, this guy is a lunatic.

Also add women doing in depth analysis on the NHL Network, will always be a Kathryn Tappen guy, like my NHL highlights delivered in a visually appealing package.

A lot of votes for Mike Greenberg. I have no issue with Greenberg personally, but the "Hey Golic...yes, Greeny" intro to an ad was an automatic PTFB.

Fantasy Football Talk = PTFB
Golf Talk = PTFB
Danny Mac busting into song = PTFB
Mike North Adopt A Pet = PTFB
National "Experts" like Peter Gammons or Jon Haymen = PTFB
Most player interviews = PTFB

Agree. I have always been creeped out by the My Pillow guy ever since his first commercials where he'd wear a cross outside of a dress shirt. He's a conman.

What? Vedder and Murray have been Cubs fans since childhood. Its one thing to say you don't like them, its flat wrong to call them bandwagoners.

Yet like moths to a flame they were seemingly always there when the Cubs were good, but haven't seen them lately? Perhaps windsocks would be more appropriate than bandwagon types.

Pretty sure they do the 7th inning stretch every season and have for years. Good team, bad team you will see those two guys around Wrigley in the Summer. Were the Cubs good in 2013? Because that was the first year Pearl Jam played a concert at Wrigley.

If you want to see a windsock, look in the mirror.

Easy there pal, I am sure I'm not alone in my dislike for the grab ass atmosphere they created around Wrigley where the game is just something that's going on while you drink your White Claw.

Vedder was a big Jose Cardenal guy back in the day, a neighborhood dude also like the slap hitting outfielder, but I was a Jerry Morales guy, also Jose was at opening day for little league one year and he acted like he hated being there, so that alone is enough to dislike the sawed off Edward Vedder. Bill Murray, well, really don't have to get into what a tool he is, plenty of stuff out there about him acting like a diva.

damn man. If there was a guy on here who doesn't offend anyone, has good content in his posts, and is pretty non confrontational its Clawmaster.

I guess Frank really is a miserable person! :scratch:

This is a good list here. I've always liked Greenie and listened to Mike and Mike for years but got so tired of Golic that his voice made me PTFB for the second half of the show's run.

I can not stand any of the late night hosts. You would be hard pressed to find a group of bigger cucks out there than these guys. I can tolerate pretty much anything on sports radio but in depth NBA (bucks) talk is painful to listen to and must be launched. How I met your mother gets launched as well if I see it on TV.

Honestly since I spend so little time in the car, I don't remember the last time I listened to any sports (& increasingly political) radio. And don't feel like I've missed much over the last decade.
