anyone know a good place in San Francisco to watch the game?
-
Joe Buck is overrated. Like him for baseball not really for football. Jack Buck just crushes his son when it comes to play by play. Dick Stockton still remains one of the most solid ever. Switching to radio, I love John Murphy but he's limited. Listen to the Raiders guy Greg Papa sometime, he's amazing. Kornheiser needs to have his mic unplugged.

ty Cynical...103 feed is much better
-
Using 97rock.com feed and the commercial breaks are 7 minutes long which is screwing up my Tivo synch. Need to hear Murphy in California. Any other feed around? Nfl.com?
-
TY "theesir" for enjoying my history. Please note that Brad, still........repeat....still.....is...................horrible. Love You
-
As bad as WGR is, and it is that bad, Brad is just as worse if not more. What is so great about listening to a moron muse about things on the internet he thinks is funny? Brad plain and simple (I've never met him but....) is a horrible broadcaster and quite ugly. He and his show are whats wrong with radio these days. It's laughable that some find him an "alternative". What a joke!
-
I have no clue as to why some of you think Brad is doing good radio. He sucks plain and simple.
-
Mrs. Schoop?.......that is pretty funny. Please, Schoop is worse than Brad and thats saying something. GR and Brad are pitiful.
-
God....I thought the best thing that GR did in many years was get rid of Brad. He gladly acts like a moron on the air and thinks it's cute. He has nothing original to say and his personality is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Idiot radio.
-
Very good points by many of you. GR is horrible. Schoop, when not getting into idiodic tirades about the stupidity of callers, has no real sense or feel for sports in this city or nationally. He comes across as a pampered know -it- all. Which he is. Bulldog has been collecting his paycheck with a mask and gun for 10 years. How someone who can't verbalize has a career in broadcasting is beyond me. His responses that start with".....aahhh,...aaaa, eeeaahh" are legendary. Simon would be a really good reporter but he does not have the personality to propel a morning show. White is just plain brutal with no sense of timing. Making matters worse are the insistance of implimenting comedy bits into the morning and afternoon shows. Really, it's not funny and it just adds to the misery. Worst yet, they would play these inane bits during breaks on Sabres broadcasts. I think the idea of "anti-promotion" has been born. Many have refered to Brad on 1230 as being an alternative. Never really being a fan, I tuned in to see if the switch would provide a refreshing angle. It was the same thing. Doing some sports and then reading whatever he finds amusing from the internet and comments on it. He just doesn't have the sharp wit or personality to pull it off. In fact, he sounds like Bulldog on a bit of GHB. The night I listened he had Bob Gaughn on. Can you say "trainwreck"?. Awful radio. I love the idea of 1230 but if Brad is their big and only move, then its more of the same.

WGR's self-promotion and "number one ranking"
gomper replied to zonabb's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It really is a shame that such a great team like the Sabres has to be covered by such a horrible station. We've gone round and round about this but the facts remain: it is not good radio. The hosts (especially that pos Brad) have a semi-coherent grasp of broadcasting. Yes, the Sabres are amazing, but you'll never hear any insightful analysis of the team. Listen to the comments you and your friends make while watching the game.........it's way better than GR. How Buttdog still has a job is amazing never mind the chumps in the morning. Poorly produced and poorly executed. Forget about any decent Bills coverage.......they dont know football at all. Let's not forget all those funny and insightful forays into pop culture. Homeland Security probably uses some of their segments to torture detainees. GR is awful......maybe another station will take them on again.....until then its just sad. -
In all seriousness....he gives potheads a bad name
-
Would you really rather Dominic Rhodes or Chris Brown...
gomper replied to rolly's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Rhodes. He's quicker and can catch the ball. Brown is a solid RB but his upright running style leads to too many injuries. -
yes LA you lack humor.
-
Ummm guys...the rumor is the Pats are looking to add Moss not trade Brady. Trading Brady for anything short of liftime number 1's would be insane.

WGR Schopp & Bulldog Fantasy Geeks?
gomper replied to Dual RB way to go's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I only listen to this load of a station for the updates (which can be mangled at times) and then switch to 590 or 660. Two real sports talk stations. I did however catch a few minutes around the Super Bowl when the topic was "Does 0 for 4 still hurt?" or something like that. No, all Bills fans have forgotten about that. Talk about lazy. How Buttdog still has a job in this city is truly amazing considering his articulates as well as a lamp. They just ride on the Sabres coattails and are fortunate they have no competition. They have it too easy and it shows. Want to hear just how bad they really are? Listen during the Summer when they actually have to work at it. These two are bad but that POS at night is even worse. Catch the updates and turn the dial. After all, you're not missing anything anyway. -
Mike Schopp: biggest joke in Buffalo radio
gomper replied to buffalobillsfootball's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Please don't stop with Schoop. That dead weight Bulldog deserves slaps too. How bad does WGR suck?.....listen to Brad Riter sometime. But thats beside the point. GR is top to bottom a below average station that doesn't try and create anything new. They just tread the same stagnant waters year after year. many of you are right........another station is not only welcome but needed. -
Hey Quitter.......F U! p.s......how's the family?
-
Nicely done Zonabb. This is the kind of explanation you should hear on a good spportstalk station......but GR and those two idiots on now dont have a clue.
-
It is not as lame as WGR but its on its way. What has become of the days when the highlights and some additional information abouts events were actually the show? Now all we have is each anchor trying out their lame stand up routines while the other one laughs like an idiot off mike (wait, does sound exactly like GR on that point.) Stupid little segments abound like the Bud hot seat. they should set it and the host on fire with it. PTI on sportscenter. I dont care what those two have to say. Dont they have their own show to bore people stupid? Is it too much to ask to have ESPN not act like 8th graders?
-
Haven't watched it in years but back in the day no one came close to Rowdy Roddy Piper. The best on the mike of all time. I nearly died laughing when he broke that coconut over Snuka's head....or when he called Flair the "May West of wrestling"....what a guy!
-
Smerlas is perfect for Simon and Whitey in Diapers. All three are terrible at what they do. When you think GR cant get any worse.........it does. The only thing that would have made that segment more miserable would have been that tool Brad Riter.
-
Well, I travel a lot for work so I do get to hear plenty of stations around the country on GR is as bad as it gets. Some stations come close but GR sucks for so many reasons. Good point on the Quinn ass kissing. How that marblemouth Bulldog still has a job is beyond me.
-
Cowterd show sucks. He fits right in on WGR. Worst sports station in the country.
-
Freddy had some good points this morning....but boy does that morning show suck moose testy's
