Vinaccia Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Sal is clearly the best currently covering The Bills...IMHO it's not even close... But that's mostly the football junkie in me...I think Sal knows football, and he seems well studied...I'm not going to agree with everything he says, but who does? When he tries to read the tea leaves, like how a single answer by Rex shows EJ is not his guy, I admit he loses me there a bit...But anyway... I think he's consistently good...And I genuinely like Sal...I love that stupid chant/song they intro him with too...I laugh every time... LOL! I thought I was the only one who loved the "sal capacCIO sal capacCIO" intro tune. It literally stays with me throughout the day and makes me laugh. Also the fact that every single person even at WGR mispronounces his last name is hysterical. It's pronounced "capa-CHO" not "capa-CHI-OH".
Dr. Fong Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Anyone know why when sal is filling in for John they don't upload the show to the podcast feed? I never listen live, but hate that I don't get the show when Sal is filling in.

Buftex Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I listen to the show almost every day (the podcast), and all in all, I enjoy it. I like it best when there are guests. The callers don't really add much, most of the time...I give kudos to Sal for not being afraid to reference old Buffalo Bills. I enjoyed him talking about Jerry Butler the other night, in more than just passing reference...I would love it if Murphy, or Sal, or whoever is hosting, from time to time, had former players on to talk about the nuts and bolts of their time in Buffalo. I am not talking about Andre Reed, Thurman, or Jim...I love those guys, but we always here from them. I would love to hear from older players like, for instance, Rob Riddick, Lee Evans, Billy Brooks, Steve Freeman, Ben Williams..hell give me Joe Dufek... guys who are such a big part of our love for this team...maybe that is just the old guy in me...but I enjoy reminiscing about the older years... and I am sure a lot of these guys would be thrilled to get some air time... they don't necessarily have to be trying to raise awareness for some cause, or promoting something...just reminisce about their peak years as Buffalo Bills. For some reason, hearing 25 people call in about the same topic, all, essentially saying the same thing, is just not compelling. Edited June 25, 2015 by Buftex
jeanbe Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 I can only take about five minutes of Murp and am enjoying Sal and my commute home. Murp is boring and every show is the same.

GunnerBill Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 I can only take about five minutes of Murp and am enjoying Sal and my commute home. Murp is boring and every show is the same. I do think it has gone stale. The format has now been essentially the same for what is it? 2 or 3 years since they started? Particularly at this time of year... they scrape the barrel for guests. There is the odd really good interview on there though. I have said before though that I'll always love Murph. The one time I emailed the show he took the time to email me back personally, which I did not expect and which I thought was a very classy touch. I'd like them to maybe mix in a bit of Sal once a week as a regular thing.
