General Sports Water Cooler

No idea who that is

Dino sounds a bit like Rush Limbaugh (to me) so I was initially turned off by him and turned off Mad Dog radio as soon as Chris' show was done.

Now its the opposite. Mad Dog is great when he has an inspired rant but I like Dino's show quite a bit more over all.

Satellite radio crushes the free stuff in every aspect.

It's easy to listen all day everyday to nfl channel even with all the commercials and repetitive news segments

The rah rah we support whatever the nfl says or does gets old though

Otoh no where else were people talking up Eli the summer before he won anything...giving details on what he was doing differently and how that translated etc

I couldn't keep the radio on Czabe's show today w/ Russell filling in. Just unbearable. Surprised no one has mentioned Rome yet (unwritten rule?), for better or worse.

I mean, Russell is the Redskins beat guy for 980, right? Yet somehow he's expected to host a 3-hour national radio show?

I heard he won't be around much longer. It is confusing that they choose him over Galdi, or anyone really. Give me Rich Campbell as redskins beat over Russell any day.

Russell has been HORRIBLE this week, relegating me to stupid Mike and Mike in the morning, and various music stations in the afternoons. Not only are Russell's opinions horrible, but the way he yells about nothing is super irritating.

There cannot be anybody in any major market who is worse than Chris Russell. His voice (not even counting his ridiculous opinions) make me want to drive my car at a high rate of speed into the nearest tree. I'm not even sure he belongs in a market like Topeka, Kansas. I don't know how he got lucky enough to get the Redskins 980 gig and parlay it into a Medifast schilling thing -- it probably saved his life.

His twitter feed provides great insight like pictures of 95 South during rush hour and the amazing revelation every day that yes, there is indeed still traffic on that road.

My hatred for that donkey Russell distracts me from another person on 980 who deserves almost as much hate, Thom Loverro.

JT Sr, Doc and Bmitch were much worse. "Doc, just what is illegal procedure. I've done that to get a sausage sammich befo I'm sure."

Unbelievably sad how awful Baltimore sports talk radio is. I stopped listening months ago to the fan except for the pre/post game Oriole stuff.

Russell is on par with Mike North. They both have pictures of people. That is the only explanation.
