MattFancy Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 The fact that Shanny has been gone for 2 years and is still talked about daily on DC Sports talk, just shows how pathetic DC Sports talk really is. Is any other coach with a record of 24-40 during his time with a franchise held with such high regard? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamebreaker Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Well GMSM and his wife have been sacrificed as the new controversy. They had to have something to talk about now that the RG3 talk has lost steam. I called it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@DCGoldPants Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 At least kornheiser is back. and their ratings overall in the market will go up. Sadly, they won't accept that its just for Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Tony is the best sports talk show in DC. That's because he barely talks about sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 That's because he barely talks about sports I think its because when he talks sports. He has good guests. He doesn't do lazy and tall callers. Then when he talks politics or movies. Its the same. He gets people who know what they are talking about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then when he talks politics or movies. Its the same. He gets people who know what they are talking about. And I wasn't taking a slight at Tony. He's the only one worth listening to on 980. But he really doesn't focus on sports like the rest of the shows, so it makes it easier to listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 streaming 980 right now to see if they have the balls to call out Wyllie by name on the story from last night. So far. No. They are on the impact on McC and if he can do his job. Very quick mention of the team denial before apology. If you are on twitter. Let @kevins980 and @thomloverro know that if they aren't talking about @tonyylee in all of this, and his other mistakes. Then they are just glazing over the obvious.

Yeah, but why would they place the real blame on the guy no one knows? It's way more fun to put everything on McCloughan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grego Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 sheehan today- "we owe the shanahans alot "........i'm sorry, for what??? for the mess that this team is? well, in part, certainly. but to give mike (i give kyle credit for what he did with robert in 2012) "credit" for anything concerning robert is like giving a doctor who shoots somebody credit for reviving somebody for a few minutes before he dies. "sure, he's responsible for ultimately killing the guy, but for a sec, things were looking really good!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@DCGoldPants Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I'd love to know what Denver sportstalk guys would say if somebody could record those clips and play it for them. I bet they'd laugh their asses off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebreaker Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 I really need Sheehan to STFU about Shanahan. The complete lack of objectivity in regards to his tenure here used to be humorous, now it's just annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spjunkies Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 So Grant got his wet dream and Griffin was benched now he's having a **** fest about the guy being on the team. Come on! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) "He will cause a distraction because we won't shut up about it." - Radio Guys. I always get sick of thee way these clowns talk as if they are not the source of the problem they complain about. They don't complain that Griffin may push for playing time, they complain he might make a tweet that they will then rip to shreds, all the while claiming "he doesn't get it!" But if he made the tweet and they din't rip it to pieces, it wouldn't go anywhere. Something drives it.. but it's not them. today I'm listening to Loverro once again call Washington fans all sorts of losers for leaving the nats game in the 7th yesterday. he's criticizing Harper for calling out the fans, squealing that he "can't talk to the customer that way". Meanwhile, he's calling all of HIS customers losers and fair weather fans... AGAIN. How he continues to be considered a sportswriter is beyond me,, as much as i've listened to him, he is way way way more concerned with trumping up off-the-field ridiculousness than he ever is with anything that happens on the field. the fact he won sportswriting awards is a severe indictment as to how far the craft has fallen. ~Bang Edited September 8, 2015 by Bang 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice_of_Reason Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Maybe be its just me, and it's nothing, but I really find it condescending the was Jason Reid refers to mike jones as Littke Bull or Young Bull or whatever. He must have said it 1000 times this morning. I listened to the segment because Jones has grown on me. But it was just Reid spewing hate. At the end, Chris asked Jones if he could stay another segment: "Sure, I didn't get to talk very much because Jason talks a lot." (Paraphrased.) Reid sucks. almost as much as lavar sucked on radio but not quite. That was epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice_of_Reason Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) Somebody must like Lavar (I don't know who), because he is now on NFL Network. You don't have to be liked to be on TV. You just have to be interesting. That could be interesting good/interesting bad/interesting completely ridiculous and laughable. Lavar is in category 3. My only issue is (I'm assuming, I've never watched him on the NFL network) that they try and pass him of as an expert. He was an expert at not knowing what he was supposed to do. How he continues to be considered a sportswriter is beyond me,, as much as i've listened to him, he is way way way more concerned with trumping up off-the-field ridiculousness than he ever is with anything that happens on the field. the fact he won sportswriting awards is a severe indictment as to how far the craft has fallen. ~Bang Damn, you had to put that line about him winning sports writer of the year in there. Because as I read the post, and saw "he continues to be considered a sportswriter" I was jonesing to reply simpley "An AWARD WINNING sports writer." You disallowed me from making an insightful though slightly snarky comment by having a coherent, complete thought. Boo Bang. Boo. EDIT that shouldn't be necessary but probably is: (For those who's sarcasm and joke meters are off today, all of the above was an attempt at humor. Great post Bang.)

@DCGoldPants Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 I do find it funny that a station who has consistently been ranked in the 20's as far as listeners, and below the other sportstalk in town....rips attendance for any event. That's like blaming listeners who don't turn in to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
