Just had a whole segment making fun of Steve Gleason and him talking through a computer. The arse clowns from Mayhem in the AM did this 3 minute joke where they pretended that Steve Gleason called in and they asked him questions. Most of his responses were in the form of a knock knock joke and at one point he says he doesn't know if he will be alive next Thursday.

Beyond offensive and in such poor taste. I normally don't get worked up by talk radio but i called them a gave them a big frick you.

I suggest others do the same.

Did they really? Wow, on behalf of Atlanta fans with a soul - sorry. That's uncalled for...
When a football rivalry crosses into the realm of actually life/death and then making fun of it - you need to step back and re-evaluate yourself.

These guys could get fired for this if it's true.

After Gleason passes away, they'll start doing orphan jokes. Stay classy Atlanta.

Someone should try to get audio and make it go viral so these subhumans get canned.

On the other hand you would hate for the Gleason family to catch wind of it.

Can you post their number and exactly what was said?

Also, someone PLEASE let Brees know about this. He's extremely close with Gleason. Anyone up for another 60 bomb week 1?

someone should find the audio so they people can be fired and publically shamed. this has nothing to do with football or rivals.

Those Pieces of shite should be fired and have their asses beat down in a public square. See how they like being embarrassed in public.

I hope that the Gleason family does not get hurt by this

I just emailed them and complained. Here are their email addresses.

steak@790thezone.com
chris@790thezone.com
nick@790thezone.com

also does anyone have the audio of the clip? It should be sent to many media sources and run these people in the ground.

You want to hit these people where it hurts? (and I do). Find their sponsors, notify them what happened, and let them know you won't support their products as long as these asshats are on the air.

JW, do you know of any national brands that sponsor the show, or is it all local stuff?

I hope these guys get fired and are publicly humiliated for this shite. That's one of the most classless things I've heard in a long time.

Go to google voice and set up a free Atlanta phone number. Forget calling the station. Call the Atlanta newspaper and act like you live there and are offended.
