Every minute these schlubs are on the air is one less minute that could be done by either a competent, non condescending, or knowledgable person respectively.

it annoys me how vinnie and cook always lambaste people for criticizing their opinions and then someone calls up saying that he things urban meyer will be the next coach at PSU and they railed him. why should i respect their opinions when they tear other people down for theirs? also they have said twice the pens score last night was 7-1 which is equally annoying

I heard vinnie go berserk one day when a caller questioned his credentials...it was comical, sad, uncomfortable, and entertaining all at the same time.

Is Vinnie the guy on Sundays evenings? I heard somebody call in questioning credentials this Sunday and whoever was on the radio lost their mind for a few minutes.

Vinnie really really really needs to find a new way to introduce callers other than 'your up here on niney tree sheven da fan' your up here, next caller is Steve he's up here....I don't care if guys don't know that much, or they argue with different opinions, but Vinne has so many irritating personality traits I ant take the entire station anymore. From his speech, to his 'yawr up here's' over and over and over, to his nose whistling during interviews. Unreal this guy gets a talk show job.

the nose whistling/heavy breathing/wheezing during phone calls is so gross.

Not 100% sure. I only knew the guy was an idiot. Callers would call in with their opinions about Wanny not coaching the bowl game, and he seemed pissed no matter which side they took.

That sounds like Colin Dunlap to me....but i don't know that the weekend lineup is, if they even have a weekend lineup.

As bad as they are, it's not even close. Chris Mack was putridly bad at his best. I'd say the closest to Mack on this station is Seibel or Vinnie. Again, my wish list: Colin Dunlap and John Phillips get shows. Seibel buried to late night, Miller and Mueller get a show.

I think the addition of Miller to the Machine is because Seibel and Starkey are irritating.

Doubtful Dunlap does much more with the station. He's taking over the Pirates beat for the Post-Gazette, so he won't have the time.

John Phillips, meanwhile, was on after the Winter Classic and refused to talk about the event. All he wanted to do was talk about the Pitt coaching situation. Yes, it's a big deal, but you could spend at least some of your show talking about the major event that just concluded in the city in which you host a radio show.

No thank you.

They were probably counter-programming the hockey talk from the postgame show on The X.
