Sounds like you don’t need to listen and find another station.


Ok, I'll bite. Since you are obviously that internet/Facebook post troll. I like Ainge and Rice, that's one show right in the time of the day I can listen most often. I rarely catch the Starting Lineup which used to have Tyler and Heather, so that worked perfectly. Sports 180 had Josh and Will(who 95 percent of the time I enjoyed), who I think compliment each other better. Heather being with Josh is terrible. If Jimmy would just retire, John W and Vince or Cain could partner up.

I listen to whomever is on when I happen to turn to this station. That isn't often though because of the multitude of commercials during each hour. Way more than other sport talk stations.

I agree with him. Your MO is I hate everything.

Lol, I'm glad you are evaluating and following all my posts. Of course, your statement is negated by the very post you quote. In it I say I like more than I dislike of the radio hosts, but you keep logging all my posts in your little fan book. I love my fans.

I don't follow your anything. Your posts just seem to show up like the little surprise nuggets on the Streets of San Fran.

The reason I quoted the post that I did was you proceeded to drop to adolescent behavior rather quickly after feeling the need to defend your original vitriol. Have a nice day unless you are planning otherwise.

Swain, Fox Sports Radio, and Basilio. Why on earth would anyone listen to WMNL except for the Brent Hubbs hour on Thursday
This guy has it. John McClain on Wednesday for Jimmy Hyams does a really good job with NFL stuff, too.

The reason you quoted my message is because of your fandom and need to call attention to yourself. So, here's a wave. I notice you. I hope you feel better today. I'm glad you were able to sufficiently label me. I was only hoping for immature, but you really went deep with the dictionary search, adolescence. I am glad I make such a moment in your life possible. It's good to be remembered and noticed.

You must have really enjoyed those surprise nuggets you had in SF. I hope while you were there you got to sample other community offerings.

Would rather hear Dearstone and Heather again than the 2 clowns in the 6 o'clock slot. I feel like I need to put tampons in my ears after hearing them for just a few minutes.

Love Vince, Ainge, Brian Rice, and Jimmy. Others are “meh”.

Can’t listen to Heather. Her voice and take on sports is like listening to someone scratching a chalkboard. If I hear her say “fer sure” one more time, I’m going to hurl.

I’m not from here and follow the Vols somewhat - because I’m not from here.

Whats wrong with Roger? I give the hosts plenty of credit for their ability to be patient, understand him, and fully engage in conversation. It kind of reminds me to slow down and give someone else my undivided attention, that I may otherwise overlook. Treating everyone with respect goes a long way and I think it makes Roger's day to talk to the hosts. Plus, Roger has some decent questions at time.

Try it in rush hour. And it makes his day every day. At least when I listened regularly.

Lol what a poll done in poor taste. Why be so negative like this? You're not doing anyone any favors here other than to just bash people and bring people down.
Ageed..

However if the same poll was ser up as who is your favorite...OP would have been given a ton of grief or ignored

Heather. For her to say " I can't believe people thought we were going to beat Oklahoma" on the Monday after going into double OT with ****ing Oklahoma told me all I needed to know. Plus she has a voice for print.

I get to listen once in a blue moon but i know not to listen when heather is on. Can’t stand her voice. 🤮
I wish I had more time to listen to Erik and Jayson. Listening to the ones who’ve been there done that is just different.

Harrington sleeps around to get stories and has freshman sorority chick intelligence

Ivens got his job because of his family and is cocky know-nothing

Hyams is a joke “insider” LSU fan who is clueless and is a Haslam lap dog. Not to mention he thinks literally every 3 day old story he “breaks” is “interesting” which is a word he uses every 10 min

John Wilkerson is the only classy and knowledgeable person on that station. I respect him because he’s genuinely nice as well

The rest are dumb kids who majored in journalism and sucked up to the AD to get jobs there. They are clueless

Heather is horrid. Her takes are as annoying as her voice. Tyler Ivins - same.

I wish Ainge was back. I like him and Brian Rice. The 3-7:00 crew is solid as well.

I'm not going to bash anyone as someone who has been in radio for 20+ years as a side gig. Done my fair share of sports broadcasting as well. I will say if you want to listen to the best show anywhere around during the middle of the day though Tony Basilio is where it's at. He's on 11-1 on one of your local Knoxville stations but I listen to him through his app. He brings in good guests, has good regular guests, and actually isn't afraid to talk about the things others won't discuss.

It takes some level of fortitude to go all in on some of the things that he does and I appreciate that as someone who wants more than just the usual rah rah blah blah on 99% of these other stations in the area. Basilio for years IMO has been the best in the game that has anything to do with UT athletics.

Tyler Ivins is completely 100% useless. He brings no specific contacts or insider info, no particular sports knowledge, and really nothing but alarm company ads. I don't know why he has a show.
