I remember back in the day when it was just the Fan 960, and they had Joe Sports. The quality of the programming was way higher than the safe, bull#### corporate luke warm pop we have now

The Fan 960 really needs to up its game.
I spend most of my time listening to NHL radio on Sirius, they have so many good shows and hosts.

Without Pinder on the morning show, it is being carried by Stephen Brunt, Brian Burke, Elliott Friedman, and Jason La Canfora...Take those guests off the show and you would get better sports insight on AMP Radio.

No mention of Adnan? I love it when he comes on and talks movies after they get the sports stuff outta the way.

Never remeber the day but I'm pretty sure he is a weekly guest. Seems to always be on when I'm getting to work 8:30ish?

Fan 960 pulls talking points straight from the pages of CP, all the time.

Peter Klein is terrible, I find him just like the rappers that get paid in the background to repeat what the main rapper it's saying.

He's a caustic ass-kissing suckup who lacks the intelligence to generate the kind of actual discussional diplomacy that creates captivating conversations. Boomer and Rhett figured out how to push his buttons, which is the only time things would seem real. In the afternoon he repeatedly proves what a doormat Steinberg is.
Will Neault can't enunciate and has analysis void of insight. He was calling for Brodie to be a healthy scratch earlier in the year when he was struggling. Hot take there Bud... really scraping the barrel of the simpleton's storage of easy analysis. He should stick to production and have nothing to do with contributions to the dialogue.
Matt Rose and Peter Klein bring way more to the table than that marble mouth.
Steinberg is just currency. He fills a role but rarely provides actual insightful value.
I've quit listening to them in the morning because it's the same tired schtick. This week Boomer was telling a REPEAT story about him chastising a guy at Costco. How pathetic is it that he can't even come up with NEW Costco experiences... to say nothing about actually sports analysis.
Kerr quit because they wanted him to be an expert in fantasy football. If there's one thing about Francis, who is just an enigma that generates dumb takes that riles people up, its that he went off on Will one morning about how NOBODY CARES about their fantasy football leagues. Yet they talk about them ad nauseam.
I'm fine with keeping Rome because at least he doesn't wade into the moronic depths of discussing his fantasy football league like the afternoon clowns.

Good point. I typically pronounce fire for example as a single syllable.
I have heard a friend pronounce it with one or two depending on when saying firewall (1) or just fire (fy-er).
