If it's been posted and already removed, cave it. If Rome is persona non grata here, cave it. I understand.

I turned off sports radio in late '07-early '08. I haven't looked back since.

Does The Michigan Insider w/ Sam Webb count as sports talk radio?

Yes. I like Ira as a person and a promoter of Michigan athletics, but he is almost unlistenable when Sam is not there.

If you miss something he said just wait a few seconds because he's about to say the same thing again......and again........and again.

Had the same thought listening this morning. He is pretty bad as a lead host on the radio. I'd rather listen to the MGOBLOG round table all week than Ira.

Ira constantly talks over the other person on the show. It's like someone told him to shut up a lot as a kid and now he finally has a chance to talk.

The shows on SiriusXM college are pretty good. Russillo and Kanell is entertaining at the very least, although SVP and Russillo was 100x better. That's about it though.

The Dan Patrick Show is great and LA has a couple local shows that are very good as well (along with a handful that suck, but you can't win 'em all).

It's nice that Eric Zane got his own show on 107.3, but four hours is too much, especially at the expense of the first hour of Dan Patrick.

Agreed. Taylor Zarzour and Greg McElroy are very solid on the First Team, and Mark Packer is great in the afternoons.

Boston sports radio is the shit but we are sports fanatics so the fanbase helps to keep it fresh and enjoyable. If I'm in the car alone it's on 1 of the 2 sports stations

The popularity has been statistically been on the rise the last few years with more television steaming options of sports talk radio shows and also more Apps that allow
one to live stream the shows.

To the sports talk radio declining comment by the way , not Rome. I don't have the stats to back that up with his ratings , although he's not irrelevant by any means

Has not been relevant in ten years? The guy signed a multi million dollar deal with CBS Radio some years back. Clearly he is relevant.

I listened to him when he started out on XTRA San Diego. Took about six months to tire of him. In retrospect that was about five months too long.

Good Ole nerd boy Finebaum had a boner rant today about it as well... blah blah. Not the greatest moment of Harbaugh since coming back but if this was 98% of the other coaches in college football. Rome would be ripping on someone else and the nerd would be stroking Sabans tally wacker.

Not sure if it's a fallacy but he's using the availability heuristic and that's what's causing his error.

A bunch, but I'd say he's making the response to one reporter's question a slippery slope. Also faulty generalizations and ad hominem in just a hate for Harbaugh.
