The thing is that channel is full of a lot of milquetoast, boring guys who have nothing to say. If you’ve spoken with Locke then you realize he has a lot to say. Some of its hare-brained, some hilarious and every now and then some is even insightful. But it’s entertaining, and if he was on the radio I’d listen. Sure he’d have to tone down the swearing (a lot!), but it would be great.
I have no confidence that he could interview people, or talk intelligently about anything other than hockey (definitely not soccer), but really if Warrener can do it, what’s the difference? But finally that station would have some personality, which is exactly what it needs.

Plus I have a face for Radio!
As most of my clients know I do love talking sports and generally do not have a problem with insane theories.
Also, I love talking about the Economics of sports. Not just gameplay, but the whole dynamic.
And hey! You chose Spurs! You could have picked any team in the world and you chose Spurs! Thats on you man.
You'd think a lifetime Flames fan would have had more than their fill of Sports-related punishment that they'd pick a better team to follow in another sport.
Thats like becoming a Football fan overnight and choosing to cheer for the Roughriders and the Browns.
Even their diehard fans would incredulously ask 'Why???'

A lot of those personalities actually do read CP, you can criticize their work because they are, as you said, professionals, but they do still have feelings, not to mention, sports journalism is a tough gig right now.
Unless its David Staples. Fire away...
