I enjoy the station and it’s mix of local & national shows, but holy shite how long are they going to run that same Proactive Plus commercial? It’s been on for at least 2 years during every single commercial break. I know it’s a weird melt but damn that’s a obnoxious ad(HAVE YOU HEARD?!?) that doesn’t seem to have relevance on a sports talk station.

Of all the things wrong with 103.7, that's pretty low on the list.


Bring back Ben Love.

Listen to Jay Walker then. I'd rather get bamboo shoots underneath my fingernails, but to each his own.

It’s pretty bad. The monotone robotic delivery of the phone number..

I don’t listen to the local shows anymore.

RP3 is an idiot with the worst accent ever. His fake laugh is even worse. His tales are worse than the other 2

This David Grubbs dude is a pompous prick and his show has zero cadence

The only good thing about that station is that it has LSU games and national NFL games on Westwood One

Didn’t know. I moved away from Laffy about 7 years ago.

Jay Walker was let go before Kevin Foote, which I’ll never understand how that pecking order occurred.

Foote is flat out unlistenable with his theories and bullshite.

RIP Big Dave though. I have never and will never hear a football game called how he and The Bandit did it. Plus their Sunday show was entertaining. I think is started to stop listening after he passed. Also when Mr. Bitter got exiled

I enjoy listening to Foote. Love his passion for the Saints and Astros. He also gives a lot of attention to high school sports in the Acadiana area.

The real complaint about that station should be the guy that comes on after. How Jim Rome still has a job in radio is beyond me. He was unlistenable 20 years ago and is still the same today.

RP3 used to be good whenever his last producer was with him. He was actually good when he was talking on air. I can't think of his name right now, but I think he left and is producing Tiger Rag Radio, which plays on 103.7 one night a week or something. His laugh is annoying, and RP3 doesn't seem to care a whole lot about sports.

Foote is annoying. Having to constantly hear how everybody is cheating, and his constant pessimism gets old. When he screamed on air about how terrible the Astros were playing for 2 weeks straight when they were 7-3 over the period did me in with him.

He's the absolute worst. He's clueless about a bunch of the stuff he talks about. He hasn't been there for the past 2-3 weeks, which would be great if that became permanent.

Ben Love was the best they had in a perfect time slot.

I rarely get to listen to Jordy's show, which is the one I would like the most. He brings on some great guest, but he can be annoying when he starts constantly talking over them.

Well, Rome is national. I guess they have nobody for that slot, or just think we want to listen to that shite. I agree, he's terrible though.

Miss listening to Big Dave all giddy in the morning after a 'Beau Bridge' win.

RP3 was never good. He has to be one of the worst people I've ever heard on the radio. We were both in Ben Love's 103.7 fantasy football league (kicked all their asses in the playoffs and talked shite to Ben the whole time ) a few years ago, and he's a really nice guy, but I just can't stand him on the radio.

Ive said it before and I'll say it again--103.7 went to shite when Ben left. He was the only PROFESSIONAL on-air personality they had. The rest of them are just gimmicks.

Yeah me saying he was good was probably poor wording. Out of three RP3 is the most tolerable to me.

And the old producer made listening to RP3 better.

I actually like Foote. He just sounds genuine, like me and my friends/family discussing and arguing sports.

As for Rome, that is the worst talk show in all of radio. That "have and take and dont suck" crap...they all suck. I could care less about these Rome worshiping morons takes. These guys call in nervously reading from a rehearsed script, trying to sound hip and cool with their stupid insulting monologues... its nauseating. And Rome is quick to sarcastically degrade someone based on some recent action or game performance, but its all compliments and praises when they are on his show. Also, his interview questions are mostly shallow like "this was your first playoff win...how does that make you feel?"

I just don't like the constant negativity that you get from him. And all of his wild, ridiculous theories.

Agreed. You have to be part of that Rome clique to even understand what they are talking about half the time. The calls are stupid, and most of the time it's not even about sports. Rome seems like a full blooded Californian, and that's a problem.
