    I have never listened to Elise, Puckett, Brewer, and Akbar. Dick Fain's name looks familiar, but I can't recall how good or bad he is either. I can't imagine them being as bad as Softy, Baird, and Hugh, but they have votes, so they must be pretty bad.

    The only guy on the list that has some talent is Mitch, although I haven't listened to him for a few years. I don't always agree with him, and he's not the most knowledgeable guy about local sports, but he is an entertaining on air personality. He is also a good interviewer, and he gets good guests. I used to really enjoy his weekly segment with Beano Cook.

    I actually like Mitch but put him on here because some people seem to hate him. I think Mitch is the only guy worth a shit on KJR personally.
    This.

    He's the only one that seems to enjoy local sports, but isn't in bed with any of them so he's willing to call bullshit rather than suck up to coaches and never be critical of their performance therefore most doogs hate him.

    Fain and Softy are just slightly more sober versions of Baird; living in the magic snow globe where it's all good. Fain was on the air defending Tyrone right up to the week he got fired, that alone should tell anyone that he doesn't know jack shit about anything.

    What's the only thing worse than Elise? Jerry Brewer so great call putting them both on the same show. The only purpose they serve is to make Ian Furness listenable or maybe bump the ratings at 710 or 1090. Elise and Jerry are just terrible, I'd rather listen to Groz and Gas talk nascar than that incoherent mess.

    Mitch was the only one who was against Ty then was against Holt as well. You are right that Doogs hate him. They always bash on him on Softy's page. I like Mitch and respect his opinion.

    Softy is just an obnoxious fan who kisses the ass of the UW department. He will never question a UW coach or AD while they are employed. He has no problem bashing on the players though. His annoying laugh is terrible too.

    As for Elise if Seattle wasn't so PC she would have been kicked to the curb years ago. She failed at the night slot, she failed at the 3 p.m. slot and I'm going to assume she's failing at this slot as well. Brewer I don't mind his opinions but his voice and lack of personality is terrible.

    KJR is a mess and I really hope 710 picks up UW sports when their contract runs out.

    HMMM, they already have a contract with WSU, if 1090 grows as a station that would be more likely, I still stand by my statement that KJR won't make it 5 more years

    You sound like those fans who go "He has a CONTRACT!". I'm sure 710 would dump WSU in a New York minute.

    I do agree with you on KJR won't last 5 more years. Only Mitch will land on his feet elsewhere, the rest of the no talent scrubs won't be picked up.

    MItch is the tallest midget at KJR... he's ok... his act gets old though. was way better when sandmeyer was his sidekick.... everyone else on that station is horrid. 710 is awful as well.

    only sports talk i listen to now is 1090. Rome 9-12. gottleib 12-3. Sandmeyer and swartz 3-6. its usually good radio.

    I liked 710 with their original line up with Brock and Salk and then Calabro and Jim Moore. Salk went back to Boston and the show is slightly degraded. Calabro went whereever he went and now the show is only tolerable.

    When comparing 710 vs KJR, it's 710>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>KJR

    710 has dropped a little bit, Salk was my favorite and they replaced him with oneil who I hate, I still like the two other shows and the one at night as well

    Most Doogs hate Salk too. I actually like Salk.

    He came from a real sports town so he held our teams to expectations.
