Mully and Hanley win by default simply because Mike and Mike is something straight out of A Clockwork Orange. A show that has seemingly been devised to tourture the listener. Even the one refuge from the M&M attack on the ears, commericials, has been co-opted to the detriment of the advertiser - are you listening Regus?

Don't listen to middays so I won't comment though I do hope Mac hasn't faced any further quandries over boat purchases lately.

B&B can be excellent but only in small doses. When they are on point and haven't beaten a topic to death for days on end they are very enjoyable to listen to. However, just when you think you can stay tuned regularly Dan becomes a condesending douchebag and it's PTFB time. Unfortunately the ESPN 1000 altenative is worse. Do these guys even talk sports? It seems that everytime I tune them in all I hear is Jurko and Harry fighting about something that has absolutely nothing to do with sports. Not that I blame Jurko, working with Harry must be maddening with his horrible jokes and total lack of accumin. How did this guy get hired in the first place?

Could not agree more. Since Penn State happened, I barely listen. I podcast the show and listen the following day. Rarely can I get through 20 minutes of the first hour before we have to our update on Penn State. And Dan's rant on motivation about child rape was just awful. He wants to carry the banner against evil Penn State and then makes jokes about rape. I don't see how those two positions are congruent. Penn State and child abuse are serious subjects, you talk about them seriously or don't at all. Your show is about silly nonsense, stick to it. That being said, I must be in the vocal minority on this because day after day, I see people on this board wishing they would give it a rest about Penn State, and day after day, Bernstein is at it again. Must not be hurting their ratings.

And yet, if you agree with him, but your rationale for the agreement to reach the same conclusion differs from his, he STILL goes all nuclear superior dickhead on you.

This WAS my favorite show. It used to be appointment radio. It still CAN be all things informative, educational, and sophmorically hysterical, but Bernstein has become so insufferable that most days I PTFB and listen to satellite.



I'm probably in the minority, but I never really cared for Mac. Speigs is still HORRIBLE on the show, what with the phony "smarmy cleverness" he always tries to inject. I like Speigs MUCH better on hit and run where he is much less schticky.



I have never understood some of the out-and-out hate toward this show. For the most part, it's harmless enough, even with the cringeworthy humor. Having said that, I pretty much have Johnny B. on until I leave for work, then tune in the West coast Howard feed...



Ditto.



What I don't care for is that he values his own importance a little too highly. When he drops the attitude of "I'm just as important as any one of the 'premier' hosts on this station", he's much easier to listen to.



I like Jason. Don't care for his annoying bumper mixes, though...



Like it better than M+S, but Silvy's voice is almost as grating as HT's. Again, don't understand all the Waddle hate; he comes across as a goof, which works IMO, and his sports thought are not that ridiculous for the most part.



Hardly ever listen, as HT is unlistenable and Carmen is too vanilla.



Agreed; still kinda miss George on the show



Grote's OK; Rosenbloom can be either really good or really miserable depending on the day.

I loved the old Baum and Rosenbloom Saturday show - now THAT was appointment radio.



Good for Fred, but I can't listen to Bruce Levine.



That's 'cause he's been "ESPN'ed"



Les' knowledge is amazing, and the fact that he can still do a show with all the nutcases calling in is pretty admirable.

The fact that most humor goes right over his head makes me think he is SHARK on this here board...

Mac & Spiegs is the fun show that doesn't challenge you. B&B is the interesting show that pisses you off.

Anything involving Larry is the worst show in the universe.

M&H vs. M&M: Toss up, whatever topic or guest is more interesting.

M&S vs. S&W: Well, take a guess. I actually like both shows, but gotta go with Mac & Spiegs. Their show is fun like sports radio is supposd to be. They challenge the audience too. I'm probably one of the few that likes the paraody songs and the goofy music stuff.

I'll catch B&B when I'm in the car at lunch sometimes and maybe flip to CJH at a commercial. I've kind of given up trying to listen to the live stream at work.

I like Larry's bits sometimes and ask Herb is fun.
Also like to catch Matt Abbatacola when he's on. He sounds prepared and has thoughts.
And of course there's Les....how can you not like Les?

About the only time I listen to ESPN over The Score is when The Score has Yahoo Sports on late on the weekend when I drive home from work. I cannot listen to that. Something always sounds funky about their audio. Amy Lawrence is a pretty decent listen on ESPN.
