Imagine someone doing that about a live sporting event. Can’t imagine that ever being a cottage industry.

I don't mind the pregame discussion with like "I'm playing -3.5 on so and so and here is why", but the "I went 4-1 last night on my picks!" is just.... nobody cares

Bragging about going 4-1 doesn’t mean anything if he doesn’t tell how much he is betting. I’m guessing it’s not much

Are Murph and Andy going to mostly cover Bridget Carlton's great run in the WNBA for their final week of shows?

Probably a check in with the victims of bandgate and locker room gate and #Prayers for Cordell.

This is correct. I don't mind proposed bet reasoning, at all, but I do not care about anybody's results. Unless they are buying beer.

What's worse is the "I was gonna bet on Team 'X'" guy after team 'X' just won.

The sooner we as a society start to file betting under the same umbrella as talking about your fantasy team, bracket or rec league sport, the better.

Them having Christine Brennan on a couple weeks back about the Olympic WBB team outrage, I was hoping that collision of that level of griping would collapse the radio waves in on itself.

I'm already there.

It's like Crossfit...

How do you know if somebody is into Crossfit? They ******* talk about it all the time.

How do you know somebody has a gambling problem? They tell you every game if they won/lost or who they bet on.

I'd argue the people with really bad gambling problems won't talk about their bets.

What kind of odds you giving on this?

 

[ClubCy]

I don't mind the pregame discussion with like "I'm playing -3.5 on so and so and here is why", but the "I went 4-1 last night on my picks!" is just.... nobody cares

And more than likely they didn’t go 4-1.

 

[Al_4_State]

Agreed. But the people who gamble just a little too much (not ruining their lives, but definitely wasting money) always tell you about how much they win.

******* Colin Cowherd 1 to 3 until they find replacements. Ugghhh.

Spoiler they won't look

Maybe he can rerun some old shows about Hawks being the fake ID of college football.

 

[twojman]

Spoiler they won't look

I do have a slight fear about that.

 

[Cyched]

Seems with M&A out of the way iHeart can finally accomplish what they wanted to do in 2020.

You all are better off taking 5 minutes to find some good podcasts.

 

[nfrine]

Trents betting is the only downside. I dont give a crap.

He's got to make a living somehow. The radio gig doesn't pay much and his future at KXNO is tenuous, at best.

 

[lil clone]

RIP KXNO, going to have to find ~12-15 hours a week of background noise to replace with.

 

[AuH2O]

******* Colin Cowherd 1 to 3 until they find replacements. Ugghhh.

That's pretty good. I feel like I only knew 66.67% of what Dak Prescott did every day. Now I can know what he did the remaining 33.33% of the time.

Big 12? Multiple podcasts annd Sirius shows out there.

One less after today. The Big 12 morning show (the one with Dave Archer) on XM is done.

 

[HFCS]

HUGE WNBA news last night since WNBA is the main sport for Iowa now.

6-11 fg, 3-6 3pt, 4 rebounds, 4 assists, and only ONE TURNOVER!!! 17 points

Oh wait, that was a Cyclone player. Never mind.

In other news local player on the US Olympic basketball team! Oh wait...another Cyclone player, again never mind.

Hope KXNO tanks and Iowa Everywhere/CF podcast network continue to grow.
