I would like to see those numbers as well.

And for the recored, im not ripping on vinney's speach (per se) just how many times he repeats himself in a given 2 minute period of every show every day.

also it would be interesting to pinpoint the precise moment in which lgp.com sentiment turned against the fan.

They never talked about Pitt on 1250.....This station sounds like it's old school PGH radio: Steelers, Pitt, Penn State, Pirates, Penguins in that order.
I assume they have an older demographic than 1250 did.
What a fool I was.

Seriously? Do you like him bragging about how important he is all the time?

Have you ever laughed at any of his horrid attempts at humor?

Has he ever provided any sort of insightful analysis besides mocking the extreme positions that fans take.

I think this is my first anti alexander post.

I'll bet the anti-Alexander sentiment goes back to his State College days.

Of those 134 pages, I would bet I have at least 25 posts about what a terrible host Fillaponi is.

Maybe the saddest commentary on Pgh sports radio is that no one has posted anything in 3 weeks. Isn't anyone pissed about anything?

I figure it's all Stillers (and Pitt football, but mostly Stillers) all the time. I am not interested in these, so I have not listened. Will turn it back on when the Pens or Pirates come back, whichever comes first.

Yep.

If that's the case you might as well not tune into Pgh sports radio until Bucco season since anytime a sports show not named Mark Madden talks Pens its only for five nanoseconds and its usually complaining about how hockey doesn't matter at all until either the 2nd half because its too long (despite the fact baseball plays 80 more games than hockey) or the playoffs. Too me that's not worth my time listening too but hey, to each his own.

yesterday, the fan was super concerned about byron leftwich because is immobile, has a slow release, hasnt started a game since last decade, and is extraordinarily brittle. today, the fan is very confident in byron leftwich because of his comments to the media.

also a big LOL to how butt hurt the media is over tomlin's supplemental presser yesterday

Tomlin does loving messing with those guys. Prisuita asked him yesterday "Do you expect Ben back at any point this season?" Tomlin had a slight sinister chuckle and said "Next Question."
