I agree with him again. I'm getting a little worried about myself.

Well it's pretty easy to do.

Maybe, maybe not. They use that one a lot. It's a big yuk yuk yuk line.

One producer told me as we were discussing it a while back that they did not need our few fans and their ratings were fine.
Folks on here can list insult after insult from the JOX employees alone.
Name a competitor. Of course their ratings are fine.
They don't need us? So I guess they're just okay with being fine and not trying to grow their market share for the benefit of their sponsors or their employees. Sounds like an okay plan to be good enough to stay on the air, or thereabouts.

I listen to WAPI in the mornings & WAPI in the afternoon swapping over to WYDE at 4 pm or so.
When I am in the car at lunch, I would be listening to Rush Limbaugh.

Yeah, with fans like that first caller diagramming your every shortcoming, who needs a mother-in-law ?

Nothing like "writers" taking phony phone calls & turning it into a story.

It is very hard to call in on a show when you know the people you will talk with don't know even the UAB starters and therefor can't really discuss anything UAB sports. I believe that is the main reason for the jokes and such. They have no knowledge base on which to make informed conversation.

Dog days for football writers, journalists, personalities, whatever else they call themselves. No actual football is happening, so let's just transcribe some idiot caller from that station Finebaum used to be on.

Not a lot of sports talk in that list. JOX isn't competing with news talk, at least not directly. I think all the other sports stations tanked. AM 690 is still limping along playing national Fox Sports Radio content, but no one really cares, and that's WJOX2 or 3 anyway.

I think they transcribed it wrong. I could have sworn the guy said Clark's job at Prattville, not Jacksonville, was better than UAB. I thought he would get dumped after that line.
