Local Virginia Radio Laughing At Our Choice

If you knew how flippin' SICK I am while typing this, you'd be even more concerned... had an attack of vertigo set in at work night before last, about 3 AM... spent the rest of the night upchucking into a trash can... missed work last night, in fact I haven't been long out of bed at all in these past 36 hours... I NEVER miss work, this is like my 3rd sick day in 7 years...

So raggin' on Philo is takin' my mind off how DIZZY I am (though to be honest, the last hour or so I'm startin' to feel like I might live, and I plan on makin' it to work tonight)...

And what effective therapy this is proving to be, LOL...

PM hos to send some Nyquil your way, get some more rest and hope you get to feeling better.

I listen to Sports Talk 980 everyday On the way to work very early in the mornings. I don't listen to 908 simply to hear dirt slinging. They are a great source of information about sports (all sports), and scroes from the previous night games.

Admittedly, they are soewhat biased toward local teams; but isn't that the case in most places. I'm not buying into the all 980 staff are morons.

I like 980 - but Tony hasn't been on there since he took the monday night gig.

And I guess you were talking about Brian Mitchell's show. (C'mon, PT, he actually played for the Iggles. ;)) They start with the first team (Czabe & Co.) the sports reporters, B-mitch, and John Thompson. I just like hearing Doc trash the Skins, when they start to stink.

I start feeling sick take some Nyquil along with Excedrin PM...

Wake up good as new. I love that combo. Just dont over-do it, because you will wake up in an unstable condition.

Say what you want to about Doc, but he's a die-hard Commanders fan! We all say things we regret about our teams or players in the heat of the moment. Doc will never go too far in anything he says about the Skins - Sports Talk 980 or otherwise.

Point is ...the staff is not moronic!

Then cite your sources... I challenge you to do that because I know the backgrounds of some of the sports talk types in the Metro area, and I know that a LOT of them are former Skins, and are definitely drinking the burgundy and gold kool-aid...

For example, if it's Rick "Doc" Walker, that guy has NEVER had a positive thing to say about the Boys... he hates them, and makes absolutely no bones about hating him (which makes him a bit easier to take, knowing that he's little more than YOU, with a mic)...
Have you even been reading this thread?--the station is in Richmond, VA.

Chuckle... then why, pray tell, were you trashing Norv before Wade was announced??



Because for some time now, you've been acting like a card-carrying jerk, almost a freakin' troll... and a lot of us are gettin' past sick of your BS...

Your problem is not me or any of the other thousand posters you seem to have annoyed here lately, it's that you appear to be stepping on the last nerve of some of the mods in here, judging by the number of threads initiated by you that we've seen locked down...



So this means we should have to sit through 11 thousand threads started by you, outlining the criticisms of a bunch of know-nothing MEDIOTS??
What is wrong with you, guy? Too much Starbucks?

question for you mr beddoe -

if 2 jocks laughing at 1 pick makes that 1 pick bad, what does 4,000 forum users laughing at you make you?

if being laughed at was the sure fire sign that something is wrong, you and the mirror need a good old heart to heart.

"The guy" is a Skip Bayless wannabe, who is generally held in high contempt on the campus of the University of Virginia... IOW, he's a flippin' JOKE as a sports analyst...

But you accept what he says without question, if only because it fits neatly into your preconceived notions... of course, if he says something that sounds like what you'd say, that does a pretty thorough job of destroying his credibility in here too, inasmuch as you have none...
LOL. What are you even talking about? I simply relayed what the guy was saying. Calm down.

Chuckle... man, the way my head is spinnin', Nyquil would be the LAST thing I need... though in the wee small hours of this morning, when I couldn't get warm (my body's thermostat also seems to be on the whack while this is goin' on), a little alcohol ALMOST got consumed... instead, I threw another comforter on the bed, and wore my mocassins to keep my feet warm...

Thanks for the good wishes, like I said earlier I think sitting up for a while, posting in here has made me feel a little better... I do believe I'll be able to work tonight, if I don't regress... I had this once before, about 10-12 years back, and it didn't come back when I started getting better then, so I'm optimistic...

The strangest thing was not eating anything for like 36 hours, and I still wasn't hungry... I forced myself to eat a bit a little while ago...

It's like I always say, you can't keep a good Bear down... :D

The sports guys here are not in awe of our pick, this stuff makes you mad to listen to. They really don't fathom the whole situation. There really weren't too many exciting hires other than college coaches available at this time. They say we should have gone with a young assistant instead of a retread. One sports guy had covered the Bills up in Buffalo & was not impressed at all. I'm going to hope for the best, but I think Jerry screwed up, thinking this team is a lot closer than it really is. Phillips seems to be for continuity's sake. Not a very "bold" hire. We'll see next year. Look like the "old Jerry" is right back in the saddle.

His Virginia NFL team is doing.
Oh, no team there?
Well, duh!:laugh2:

That's a good prescription for a cold, but it would make what I've got FAR worse...

Alcohol and vertigo is NOT a good combination... and I can tell you from the last bout I had with this, do NOT drink any milk... it will be comin' back up inside of 15 minutes...

Obviously, I hadn't read that far yet... but now that you have cited your sources, I find them a good deal less than compelling...

Actually, now that you have cited your SOURCE, since you only named one guy... but at the outset, you made it sound like there were several guys at that station goin' off on the Boys...

You wouldn't be exaggerating just a tad, would you??

Nope, too much YOU... which will make anybody sick, I think...

he's ignoring me. but it's true. if 2 guys on the radio laughing at someone makes that someone bad - then what does 4000 people laughing at philo make him?

by his own logic i'm not sure we can calculate the <insert pc word for lack of intelligence here> can we?

Some of us are not in awe of your posts either.

And if these lifeforms were, then you'd feel better? How long would that last?

"The sky is falling, the sky is falling..."

Is it possible that unless 95% of the world agrees with your estimate, you feel you must inform the general public of the difference? Or is it that you're trying to be the second coming of the prophet Jeremiah?

Whether you believe it or not, there's already ample evidence of your opinions on this board and probably several others. Plenty of ammunition for you to go back to, if you would only have the patience to wait things out.

But apparently you can't. The need for attention might just be too great. So it's on with the "homer" accusations. Ah well, the servers needed exercise anyway.

Not a bit, there are several guys involved in the show.
