Idiots!
So many idiots.

Two questions: does your station host any shows themselves, and if so, do they take live calls?Somebody shoot me. March Madness is upon us, and I'M IN CHARGE OF A SPORTS TALK RADIO STATION AUUGH
First, thankfully no, it's all piped from ESPN. But the second question, yes, AND WE CARRY PAUL FINEBAUM, the Gas Bandit of SEC commentary. Our locals CAN call in live to these shows, and already have started.Two questions: does your station host any shows themselves, and if so, do they take live calls?
(If yes, I can only pray you're not in a mostly SEC part of the state.)
Can we all start prank calling them? :^pFirst, thankfully no, it's all piped from ESPN. But the second question, yes, AND WE CARRY PAUL FINEBAUM, the Gas Bandit of SEC commentary. Our locals CAN call in live to these shows, and already have started.
That's not as bad, since handling those calls should be ESPN's problem, not your station's. You don't get direct exposure to the crazy, stupid, and crazystupid.First, thankfully no, it's all piped from ESPN.

I still have to cross promote and make commercials for the stupid. And I'm expected, naturally, to monitor my own station for problems. Previous years I was able to just tune out all the Madness. Not so this year.That's not as bad, since handling those calls should be ESPN's problem, not your station's. You don't get direct exposure to the crazy, stupid, and crazystupid.
At least I hope that's how it works, for your sanity's sake.
I mean, a good many of his books are literally titled "I hate (your university here), and here's 303 reasons why you should too"

You're on your own with not liking the tournament. You don't have to deal directly with the callers, which is far, far worse. Like that guy who killed the Auburn oak trees. He was a regular on Finebaum's show.I still have to cross promote and make commercials for the stupid. And I'm expected, naturally, to monitor my own station for problems.

It's kind of his schtick. And really, he only hates their intercollegiate sports programs.So much hate.
Excuse my ignorance but why so much hatred against universities...
He's not even exaggerating, folks.PAAAAAAAAAAWL I DONT CARE WUT DEM BUCKEYES DID. DEY JUST GOT LUCKY IS ALL. BAMA IS GONNA WIN IT ALL THR NEXT TEN YEARS. ROW TIDE
Wisconsin has a team??!I notice that Finebaum doesn't have an "I HATE WISCONSIN" book.
He must either assume a.) it doesn't need to be written, because everyone already hates us, or b.) we're too "small potatoes" to even bother with a book.
When did you become a member of my family?PAAAAAAAAAAWL I DONT CARE WUT DEM BUCKEYES DID. DEY JUST GOT LUCKY IS ALL. BAMA IS GONNA WIN IT ALL THR NEXT TEN YEARS. ROW TIDE
Mental image that I was forced to recall, so I will share:Dudebros were lining up outside the downtown bars before 9am today. I am so not looking forward to tonight's shift.
I want a banana.
Oh I don't, I think you're quite apPEALing.Why? Why do you hate me so?!
What does the sound of bells have to do with Emrys?Oh I don't, I think you're quite apPEALing.
Oh I don't, I think you're quite apPEALing.
I dunno... I'm kinda craving one now...
I don't want a banana anymore.
Analysis paralysis?why am I sitting here right now, staring at the specs for my first real project, wondering how the hell I'm supposed to do it?
Could be, but I'm not sure. I'm supposed to go through the client's data and pick out the relevant parts for my project, except I keep scrolling and scrolling and I can't find what I'm looking for and oh god I'm going to be fired.Analysis paralysis?
