- I wish they could like the NBA or at least their jobs.
How can you expect someone to want to listen to your opinion when you’re saying you hate the product you’re trying to sell? I missed the takes from Jacoby takes but with Vernon, it feels like two forty year olds who are missing the mark. I like local radio guys but I guess there’s a difference in gaining a national audience appeal.
