Those two were hosting together last night. I was waiting for someone to call and say "I could have sworn you two were the same person."

You are completely right. What I wrote sounds stupid and just brings in a group of like minded individuals. I'll blame it on the hour and lack of sleep for a dumb suggestion.

I still believe they need to go out of house for new hosts.

How far out-of-house? I don't want some guy from Atlanta to come here and tell me how much better the Braves and Falcons do everything, how rude we are, and why college sports are so much better than the pros. A guy like that would last like, what, a year, give or take?

But in all seriousness, barring a few sportswriters (Steve Rosenbloom is an Angeleno, I believe), I would like for my sports talk personalities to be from the area. Radio has become so sterilized and deracinated over the last 20 years. In a world where traffic and weather reports for Milwaukee are being delivered from a guy at a cubicle in Fort Worth, to have local people talking about local sports is the least I can ask for. Is this provincial? Yes, but that's kind of the point of sports. There are roughly ten million people in our tri-state area. If we have to look beyond those ten million to find people who can talk about the Chicago Bears with adequate eloquence, we're doing something wrong.

The funny thing is it should be MUCH easier with the popularity of podcasts.

Well said. RIP Michael Holley. The other problem is that there are now 3 stations, so the shallow talent pool is even shallower. You could make a pretty good station if you combined them into one and trimmed the considerable fat.

I object. I think there are only two real "stars" for lack of a better word. Mac and Berns. The rest are sidekicks or replacement level guys.

Well, that could be. Let me run this through my advanced metrics and see what I can come up with.

You laugh, but it really could work.

Is there much difference between the guy on the street and the guy with a bachelor's from Columbia College?

Thank God others agree on Rosenbloom...the guy makes my ears bleed just a little bit less than Larry does.

I think the thought of getting bloggers makes a lot of sense.


I know that Big Cat was already offered a spot at the Game but refused their offer of a trial basis.


I'd die for Bernstein to have to work with a post frat dudebro.
