Yeah, he made a good point that if he was involved in these shenanigans then it would be out there now.Well, he's not charged in the indictment so there's that.

Probably nothing. But they should realize there’s a double standard. I don’t especially appreciate when Tommy’s the morality police on various athletes.
This gets so tiresome.
Again...this theme from some that if you haven't been anointed some-type of saint, you are disqualified from ever having a take on anyone else's issues in the future.
Could it be possible that individuals that have screwed up at one point (Or maybe many?) in life have some valuable prospective because they themselves messed up?
Ya Marty definitely deserves a 10th chance his perspective will be so great and refreshing next time around.
You didn't see I was commenting on Birch?? There are nuances to hearty debates...but you have to recognize them.
Very fair point.And also to be fair, its something Travis Justice would make fun of.
Also, unrelated, but I think talk radio always has a unique feel....its about the personalities. When CW starts talking about his satellite TVs, it sounds like he's just talking about his home set up, but we know that's a paid spot....but talk radio always seems to be less like a commercial, more like a comment.
And think of CW, sometimes he's KXNO CW, sometimes Leerfield CW, sometimes CF CW, etc....if that makes sense (along with other folks who have multiple roles)....so for the public we don't know which voice we are getting
I don't get the obsession with wanting extended coverage on local media. The people they cover are what I'm interested in, not the media member themselves. I think its important for outlets to acknowledge when a media member has done something illegal, but I don't need opinion pieces written on it. Massive scandals like Marty fall in a different category.
I also don't really see Birch acting like the morality police, especially in his position as the beat writer and not the columnist (Randy). Maybe I'm wrong, but I've heard him speculate on how long Iowa State will suspend an athlete but never call for a suspension.
Thank you. I didn't know that all of us hacks were that interesting.
One thing I have learned over the years is that the public generally cares much less about the media than the media cares about itself. The Mike and the Mad Dog 30 for 30 was a great example. Media went crazy about it and it absolutely flopped in the ratings because the public didn't care. We are a very self-absorbed profession. Mostly, the public just wants to be entertained.

The most intelligent things I have heard you say. I agree you all are not that interesting and it may just be me but I stop reading articles and listening to the radio when locals start writing or talking about themselves. I do not care about your personal lives just the same as you do not care about mine. I just want to hear about local/national sports that are relative to a sports website or radio show.
I wonder if you've ever listened to how you sound now on those games vs years ago? On Sirius they have that channel that plays Howard Stern classics and his voice and delivery in the early 90s doesn't even sound like the same person from the past 10 years, it's night and day how much he polished his voice over the years.
I'll listen to games back often because it's the best way to get better - to beat yourself up. That's what I do at least. Haven't listened to the ones from 10 years ago though ... perhaps it'd be fun to try. I'm sure I was terrible though.

You definitely stick to sports more than the other KXNO shows. Actually breaking down games with Jess and Jake is my favorite segment.If you don't mind me asking, how old are you? I think there's a major generational gap in this type of stuff based off of my experienced. My hunch is that the older generation prefers the "stick to sports" stuff while for many younger viewers it is more personality driven. Hence why the podcast genre has become so popular. Like you're listening in on friends having beers as opposed to cut and dry radio.
