I did the radio thing in college, in the news department. I was on air the morning the original President Bush threw up in the lap of the Japanese prime minister.
The old AP wire machine was ****ing LOUD.
Real or fake news?
3-3.
It must be Thursday.

Gosh, I remember WOKY on AM radio back when I was a kid. The best back then for sure.
Loved me some Bob Barry.

And there's nothing wrong with that
Was that a statement or a question?

It was the Associated Press. You decide.
Defunct?
Damn. Philly D is hot. So yeah, as hard as it is...go Carolina.
OK.
I like Jim Nance.
I like Tony Romo.
I know you people âĒ generally hate all announcers.....I'd love to hear one of you rubes do just 30 seconds of color......"Yah, hey der, dat was a nice tackle." 
Totally agree. Solid pairing.
And Romo nails the pressure pre snap.
justanotherpackerfan posted:True Story...circa 1995 I'm at home listening to the Brewers on WEVR out of River Falls...the local announcer says he has Brewer tickets for the 15th caller. I called and the guy says you're "number 1". I called again and he said you're number 2". I called and he said "number 3....12 calls later and I had tickets to a pair of games a couple of weeks later.
I don't know if that speaks more to the popularity of the Brewers at the time or the listenership of WEVR
Now that's an awesome story JAPF!

Who is timesfour's Herb?
Keil.
Who else?
Yeah. Dumb question. Apologies.
Hateful.
...but excellent hair doppelganger.
Wentz is getting hit a lot, and hard
Arthur 'Big Guy' Carlson: Here, Les. Read the disaster plan.
Les Nessman: But, Mr. Carlson, the disaster plan doesn't say anything about tornadoes. It's for what to do if we are ever attacked by the Russians... or Chinese!
Arthur 'Big Guy' Carlson: Well... Just read the plan and wherever you see the word "Russian" substitute the word "tornado!"
Les Nessman: [into the microphone] Citizens of Cincinnati, we are being attacked by the godless... tornadoes!

My God, this is actually perfect. Kiel and Fedya close at it, phaedrus in the background picking the weak side to defend!
WKRP was so awesome!
I seriously thought turkeys could fly!
As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.
I originally was in search of a pic for the Les Nessman "Super Sneaky Snooper", but keep getting sidetracked by all the other funny stuff.
BTW, speaking of drunk announcers...
If you haven't seen Brockmire.... just go do it! It was on IFC... stream it and thank me later!
Wow!
Hope Kuechly isn't concussed again.
This is a pretty good game for TNFB

Here's how I picture the X4 commentary booth:
PBP: "And now, as we have a close 17-14 game between Baltimore and Cleveland, now is a good time to remember in the month of October, the many people who are fighting the brave fight against breast cancer, is it not scoop?"
Scoop/Generic x4 member: "Yes Bob, and what better way to honor those who have lost their valiant fight against cancer that Dom Capers sucks and it's truly a shame that thugs like Damarious Randall and Davante Adams can't grow up to be good wholesome boys like Corey Linsley and Jeff Janis.....etc."
7 plays for 12 yards to tie the game. Time: 3:54
9 plays for 75 yards to win the game. Time: 1:02

I think this is how it went
