A note for anyone that ever calls into a sports talk show...

Not true. This one time Jimmy Ott was down in the dumps because they were all out of crab cakes at Monjunies.

There was a sports call in show a few years ago that would hang up on any idiot who called in and asked how they were doing. Can't remember the show but it was pretty awesome.

There was a radio show in Monroe a few years ago that would roast the caller if they didn't ask them how they were.
The Whip and Chad show...

After listening to the Adam Carolla show for years and listening to Adam demean and ridicule his callers (which is usually very funny), it is refreshing to hear hosts be courteous to their callers. I find myself waiting for the host to jump on the caller. Colin Cowherd seemed to do this for every caller back at ESPN. I don't listen to that shithead anymore so not sure if it is still the same.

Someone listen to Jim Rome today?

Always bugs me, and you can tell it bugs a lot of the hosts too. Moscona and Ben Love are definitely ones that get annoyed by that question constantly.

I firmly believe his whole screening process was to only take callers who disagreed with him...Cowherd thought conflict was key (but I'm sure it was an ESPN promoted format - with their adoption of First Take and Around the Horn - everything is conflict) - Cowherd didn't used to be like that before ESPN.
Just taking callers who hated him so he could pound them into the ground.
Compared to Rome who seemed to only want callers who loved him...and agreed with everything. "Jim you're the best!" Pat on the back fan club show who gave their own takes to impress their Emperor.

Dick Bellevia is the worst at this. Sometimes he just won't even answer. He's such a dick.

Idk why, but that always makes me chuckle on his show.
That and the jazz version of "stat of the day," the breaking news music, and the "hot take" siren.
Yeah, I'm easily entertained

I wish I a dollar for ever time somebody asked Buddy D how he was doing.
