A caller asked him for his opinion on whether he would rather see the Blackhawks take on the Ducks or the Kings in the next round, and his response was "Does it matter? You feel that the Blackhawks are going to win, anyway, right?"

Why not just answer the caller's question? Probably because you had no opinion and didn't want your audience to know that you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

Welp. You're in trouble.

I know a board member that can help you smooth everything out if you need it.

Being that I pretty much cant take a full B&B show these day, today was enough at the part when the greatest hockey mind of our time, Jason Bernstein, wazs explaining to his father how he sees things before they happen! Hawkey Savant!

Thus I dont even get what I will just assume at this point is the same blatant racist comment, that has been painted over as just a compliment by Terry of LO' Homes and SHO BIDZNESS! and of course the response of "Thank you uncle teary."

Tuesday I climb into my car at 5:56 p.m. and his show is starting,
"I know the Blackhawks are playing an important game tonight, B&B didn't want to talk hockey and we won't either..."

Then I here his show's open, and I realize that it is approximately 200 seconds of verbal noise featuring random sound drops that are as disjointed as they are informative. During the introduction, why is Herb Lawrence featured first? What does he teach at DePaul and why not introduce the the station's bookkeeper or the security guard down in the lobby "Mike Williams, Tilden Tech, security guard."

And yeah, for someone wanting his name properly pronounced, he attaches nicknames and modifies everyone else's name but lets Terry make him his bitch.

I really can't stand that opening of his show where they they say what schools they're from. cringeworthy.

It's designed to aggrandize Sir. Everyone else graduated from schools more aptly considered 13-16th grade and he gets to big ball it with a De Paul (I could have gone to Yale but chose communications at a commuter school) degree.

He might as well say "B&B's rating are declining and I'd like mine to decline, too."

I'm sure he would try to spin it as "If that means that dumb people find the show too difficult to follow and only the REALLY. SMART. PEOPLE. are listening, I'm OK with that."

Im not sure DePaul is that much to brag about. What are the other schools?

I believe Conner went to uw Madison which is usually ranked in the mid to low thirties last time I checked. That puts it next to u of I nationally, both of which are ahead of DePaul. I don't even know where DePaul ranks, but it's definitely not ahead of Madison, pretty sure about that.

The more important point is: it doesn't fucking matter where you went to school if you're talking about sports on the radio. And we certainly don't need to hear about it every night.

Well when he was there he was part of the lineup pageantry. That's how I knew he went to UW Madison.
