I would listen more, but the commercials on 1410 make me change the station, and I forget to turn back...
Seriously, does Wichita have the worst radio ads in the world?

I think it is freaking awesome that we have TWO local sport talk shows.
I love Chris he doesn't pretend to know everything and does an honest job. They had a reporter on the show from the SC area the other day. It was cool to hear his views and have Chris and Randy bounce thoughts off of him.
B and B are more tenured but also talk a lot about non sports related things.
But like I said it is bad a$$ to have two show devoted to local sports.
Bruce is the best sports guy across the board in Wichita by a mile in my opinion. He's at the top of his game during Shockers TV broadcasts and pretty good on the radio. I could see how people could be rubbed the wrong way with him because he uses big words and has to get the last word, which give some the vibe that he thinks he's smarter than everyone but that's how I like my radio guys, smart, informed and aware of that fact but to each his own.
Bob is alright, has a really bad voice and energy for the radio but he and Bruce have a good chemistry to them. Bruce absolutely has to carry Steven, but not Bob. And Savage says dumb things all the time but he's funny and seems like a great down to earth guy.
I won't bad mouth the other show or anything, I just don't like it as much. They have definitely improved and I listen to SoundOff. I'm glad we have two shows like this, not long ago it was The Phil Stephenson Show (which was horrid) at like 4pm and that was it.
Oh and Rose, if you paid 15 bucks a month for these shows they wouldn't have to "whore out" for Ryan's Liquor. :)
Edit: Changed "That" to "Thay" to "They" Proofreading ftw
I'm just glad we have two local sports shows. It's sure much better than the one total hour per day we got five years ago before Sports Daily went to two hours.

:rotf: Ricky from the River & others is/are afraid of big words and I assume Canadian pronounciations :rotf:
Again, both are have respective strengths and weaknesses. It's apples and oranges to me. Like most, having quality (subjective I know) diversity is important and essential.
The one that ALWAYS gets me is hearing Randy hawk windows and remodeling....
Southern makes coming home, maintenance-free!

Go Shocks!!!!
One time a guy called in using a redneck accent saying how much he loved Bruce when he used "all them big purty words" and kept telling him how smart he was. It was hilarious.
i never tire of hearing randy do ads...mainly for the entertainment value, more thananything else. it's always 'wes and the guys', 'tom and his gang',as well as the phrase 'been in the bidness', and 'tell em coach smithson sent ya'...having said that, those people are probably thrilled to have randy doing it.
bruce, on the other hand, provides HIS entertainment with his big words that i'm pretty sure he's not totally down with meaning wise.
and i may be the one person who really enjoys crusty old bob on the radio...
Personally, I think Bruce is so over-bearing that I can only listen for about 5 minutes at a crack. He never shuts up and he always has to have the last word.
You gotta like Randy as well for calling it as it is:
While discussing all the injuries the team has right now he stated that Marshall has to "coach the h-e-l-l out of the healthy players" and get guys like Mantas and Durley, who is a "lazy tur*" to get with it.
