He was on Mike and Mike this AM for Golic. Am I the only one who thinks a little bit of this guy goes a loooong way? I used to like him but his over-the-top approach to everything is getting a little old. I had to actually turn the show off after about 15 minutes. He's like that neighbor who thinks he needs to tell you how to go about doing everything. Then throw in the man crush Greenie has for him and it's unbearable.
I think part of it is his energy level is SO high. Maybe it's an act, but regardless, it's starting to wear thin.
On a related note, Greeny's man-crush on Cris Carter yesterday got really sickening really fast.
Yup, that's just as bad.Quote:

But I usually like Herm. He definitely gets old though. I think he tries too hard to 'keep it real'. I love it when he gets really passionate about something and in the first syllable of a sentence he's about to say, he starts to stutter.
Tha tha tha tha tha that bothers me!
I think he's just trying to constantly create his own character and personality/brand. Which is especially important for guys that do radio.
I can't listen to Mike & Mike...not a fan. I'm not convinced that Herm is genuine. Over the top, as mentioned before.
Did he fake fight with Greenberg too?
No show sounds more fake than that show
I'm not a huge Mike & Mike fan, but its better than the alternative in my opinionQuote:

I listen to podcasts as my alternative.Quote:

I get to hear interesting things about sports (#1) and I can hear the insight of guests and not just the hosts (#2). Sorry but I don't have much interest in the weekly spots with the manager of Wells Fargo Area or Iowa Speedway.
I flip during commercials and find myself enjoying 1700 much more in the mornings.
Exactly. There was a week this past winter when I was listening to T & T and 3 out of the 5 days, they were talking about womens college basketball; 2 of those days being about Drake womens basketball. Thats about the time that I made the switch to 1700 in the morningQuote:
