I love laughing at all the Bills hope and high expectations that usually get broadcast here, otherwise not a huge fan. If I'm listening to talk, its usually a talk show that occassionally works sports into it

what kills me are a few things. Callers...plain and simple, radio hosts who think they know to much and talk down to any caller who disagrees with them, or the multi hosted shows where you have 3 idiots yelling over each other, making fun of each other, and berating callers.

LMAO, those are my exact reasons I don't usually listen too. You know who I do like though, is John Kinkade on ESPN radio, I usually listen to him on Sunday mornings when I am eating breakfast and reading the paper

we have mike and mike wanna bees on in the afternoon- one tries to play the pathetic greenie part- I end up turning them off

Cowherd tries to piss people off and our other 'locals' do that too.
they make fun of teams , players, etc and even AD's just to get some action.
It's their job to rile the troops I guess
