I've been watching both shows for years... back when Nate and Laura Beke did TC with Mickey. I'm still lovin' TC. The Break is a bit annoying with Taylor Stern on it.

Taylor stern is beyond annoying. She knows very little about the game and isn't good at hosting. Her Segway crap is beyond annoying. When she's not there the show is much better.

I listen almost everyday. . I get what the person means though.. I respect what BB says as he was a former nfl scout. . Eatman I like. Mickey has got a lot of good inside information. . Helman is annoying and doesn't know a Damn thing about football. . I think of him as just a writer not football analyst. . As far as x and o I'm pretty sure a lot of people on here know more than everyone on the show except BB. . But that's not what they are asked to do so I don't hate on them.. even Helman which can be hard not to lol

Wow. I'm just not getting all the hate for CB and TC.

Many are the times when I get irritated and quite frustrated in wanting to hear something of pertinent value with respect to matters of the team (rather than whimsical commentary that has no relation at all to team matters.)

Evidently, that frustration isn't something that is particularly exclusive to myself, by the looks of things. I don't think it's really a matter of "hate," however, so much as listeners simply making suggestions that they feel very strongly would improve the program's content. Fans are hungry for team info and not quite so much whimsical chit-chat.

I have to disagree. The majority of both shows (since I've been listening the past couple of months) deal with injury updates, the 46, scouting reports, matchups, previews of upcoming games and recaps. How much more pertinent can they get? And yes, they do stray from topic from time to time, but it's usually still Cowboys/football related and I feel they get back on topic pretty quickly. Some may feel the ladies don't contribute much, but I disagree with this as well. The keep things light and keep the show from becoming a ****ing match between a bunch of dudes.

We obviously have different ideas as to what constitutes a good program. Many of those I've tuned in to have routinely offered 5 minutes of meaningless drivel to every few minutes of actual team-related matters. So much so, that I have avoided tuning in many times for that very reason. It's all a matter of perspective, I guess. I've never seen one program that has been a ****ing match. They all get along famously and oftentimes overly so, judging from their strong inclination to constantly exchange non-football related chit-chat. Some shows are undoubtedly better or lesser than others, however, no doubt about it. TC is the one that I've seen mostly, although I seldom listen to it anymore for the reasons I've mentioned.

Makes we wonder why she is on air. I would think Eaglton and Eatman know how terrible she is.

I think Broaddus has been an excellent addition to the break and am really enjoying it right now. That being said I don't know why they take callers and find every single one horrible. When calls start I hit the skip forward button.

I'll second the Heman is annoying. His speech pattern makes me want to smack him. I think he believes he's funny and or clever.

Just glad Steve Dennis and his Ohio St loving, golf yammering is no longer on the Break.

He was by far the worse. He went on and on and... About Demarco and us losing him. So far he's wrong. Again. He was wrong often.

Some callers do take too long to get to the point.
Broaddus is nice to Taylor, which I like. Nick seems to hassle her.

Taylor is fine. She seems to apply herself and actually know what she is talking about and has made some good points. Kelsey is a moron and hard on the ears.

I don't know how you guys listen to those shows. I've tried several times and I can't make it half way into the show before I just can't stand it anymore.

I call it Clueless Buffoonery.

It should be very obvious by now why Broaddus is no longer an NFL scout. Is he still saying that Marinelli is going to Tampa after the season like he did all of last season?

Why does everything and everyone have to be so serious with this stuff?

Not really talking bout anyone here but chill out

And are people really that serious all the time with their jobs?

Personally I don't care how long someone's been a fan of the team and don't care how the crew is doing and the chit chat leads to some good stuff sometimes.

I found it hilarious on of of the shows this week where they specifically said "get right to the question, we're all doing fine, we don't need to know how long you've been a fan for." They they took a call and the first thing the caller says "He how ya'll doing... Listen I've been a fan since 1969...." It was immediate after they made that point it was I thought the call was a joke!

Me too. The callers ask the worst questions. There were 2 about Tebow this week. ARGH!

Nick and Derek are the best of the group though, I liked the Break better when it was just Nick, Derek and Kelsey or Blair, or Dia? (I think that was the last one's name)... On TC I like how they have right now it's fine

I listen to both shows although I enjoy CB a lot more. Derek is a good host, Bryan with the analysis is awesome, and Nick has that humor. Also, not to forget talyor, she's not annoying like Kelsey charles...lol. As for rushing the fans, to their question, I actually enjoy Bryans bitterness.

@BryanBroaddus I find it a bit hypocritical, but of course I keep listening...Need my daily Cowboys fix. I live in Bay Area. No Cowboys news

@baebllr408 I find without the phone chit chat we get to the questions quickly for answers. What we do on our show is our show.

@BryanBroaddus The show is a show for the fans, no? With ya, just saying sometimes I'm listening and I'd prefer to get to analysis quickly.

@BryanBroaddus Let's not get it twisted, I love listening to you talk football, but just wanted to point out the whole "skip chit chat" part

@baebllr408 Listen on Friday. You will hear the same thing as long as I get to host.

@BryanBroaddus what do we expect the "chit chat" to football ratio to be? I usually listen to the recorded version, as the time difference

@rgolding73 I stopped listening to TC a while back, on top the unrelated convos, Nate Newton needs to do go learn basic English

@rgolding73 Also, I like BB. Just making a point; tells fans to skip chit chat, yet he spends plenty of time shooting the ****.

Fan: Bryan, how do you spell fan? Hint, the fist 2 letters are fa.

Broaddus: Um, um ...(gets really angry to deflect from the question).
