Cheech Tremendous 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2007 Not sure if this has been mentioned, but is anyone else sick of ESPN's overuse of the word Walk Off? They'd probably use it for a winning fucking putt in golf! I have heard them use that term for a putt in golf. On a related note, has anyone noticed how obsessived they've gotten over "clutchness." It seems that every situation is broken down into who was and wasn't clutch. Cavs lose? Lebron wasn't clutch. Cavs win? Lebron is learning how to be clutch. Doesn't matter what sport or what time of year either. It's so annoying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest George's Box Report post Posted May 31, 2007 Yep, he was covering the denied appeal for that one kid who didn't get an alternate pronunciation on a word. I liked this bit: "What is the origin of the word?" "Possibly Scandinavian." Haha. Possibly Scandinavian? Our friends at Scripps Howard are not paying the same attention to detail as they were back in my spelling bee salad days. "It's possibly Scandinavian, it's possibly Sanskrit. Maybe we just made it up. Fuck you, Hadji." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hyperchord24 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2007 On ESPN radio Saturday, John Clayton and Sean Salsbury were discussing NFL news items and came upon the planned UFL. It was reported that Mark Cuban was going to be part owner and you can imagine the idiotic discussion that followed. It's obvious they dropped Cuban's name just to add some meat to the story, but they had to know that he was just an interested party and not one of the organizers like it implied.

TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2007 For those of you in ESPN Radio markets, I was wondering if you could share the lineups of the your local affiliates - so we can see just how much suck these stations are putting out, as well as where else this garbage is being syndicated to. In New York: 6-10 Mike & Mike 10-12 Max Kellerman (this was Colin Cowherd's slot for the longest time) 12-2 Steven A Smith 2-4 Dan Patrick 4-7 Michael Kay (During Yankee season he leaves at 6 for YES) Then it's a combo of Knicks/Rangers stuff during the season, Gamenight, and All Night with Jason Smith (Weekends is Bob Valvano) I gave up on this station roughly a year ago, with the exception of catching Kay during Yankee season, though lately I've given up sports radio altogether it seems. Mostly because of terrible hosts between 1050 and The Fan. As bad as SAS is, I think Mike and Mike is by far the worst sports talk show around. Possibly ever.

MillenniumMan831 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2007 We get Mike & Mike in the morning, then local stuff up until Game Night. I believe the other affiliate (yeah, there's two affiliates of the same station) has Fox's First Team in the morning and then ESPN's other shows after that but the reception is too crappy to try to listen to it.
