I understand that there is some interest in this from listeners and perhaps a segment every morning outlining some good picks or interesting lines would be cool, but it seems to be on way more than once and has a lot more to do with the personal experience of two random dudes rather than actual informative or interesting information.

Again it may just be my bad luck of when I tune in but I swear in November I heard more about Turtle owing Walker beer than I did about the Flames in when the morning show was on and I listened.
This is one things that bothered me with Richards. He expounded on his sports select picks a lot, and even with guests. I am not sure what bothered me about it, but it seemed out of place, and like a conspicuous product placement. Possibly because it was football picks, which I have even less interest in hearing about.

He and Peter Maher did a charity hockey game, and they were both really good. I always loved his fake Hasek interviews.
