  • The yelling is awful

    When they start yelling and arguing it’s a cheap substitute for content

  • Typical Clueless radio blowhards

    When it comes to a sports talk show you want intelligent takes. With this show you get “Aaron Judge is gutless” because he chose the New York Yankees over the San Fransisco Giants. That should tell you all you need to know about what you’ll get from this show. No one likes a homer but the only thing worse is a whiny, bitter homer with a mic.

  • 95.7 the shame

    Ray Ratto and Damon Bruce were by far my favorite radio personalities. I can't believe the station let them go, and kept the unlistenable Steiny and Guru. I'm deprogramming the station, i used to love listening, with Joe Lo & Dibs and Damon & Ratto. Now you're dead to me.

  • Conforto!

    Conforto is a much better player than you think. Go on BaseballReference.com and compare Conforto’s numbers to Correa’s. Very close. Plus you’ll see Conforto is a gold glove caliber right fielder.
