Okay, its one thing to be negative about this team and I dont blame you.
But to **** all over everything about this team and not contribute a thing to the listner's understanding of the sport, well thats just godawful radio.
I think WQAM is hell bent on proving themselves worse than ESPN as far as sports coverage.
 
He used to be on the radio up here I'm Tampa he got fired for racial slurs.
 
I cant listen to him at all. I tried for 10 minutes once and he wasn't even talking anything dolphins related but I had to change it to commercials on another station. Some shows are just boring or tedious. I'd rather listen to static than his show. And I'm totally being honest about that.
 
He should not be on the radio for the racial **** he uttered in Orlando. I cannot believe he picked up again.

Um, he said "If they get those three monkeys [Finnegan, Vilma and Vincent Jackson], I'm good. I'm ready, man. I'm ready. I want those guys. Those guys are great players."

Now, *maybe* that was a racist remark. But the context certainly doesn't imply it: he's calling them great players. I think it was a poorly-chosen word, but honestly - what's the difference between that and "dogs", or "cats"? Like, "let's get those cats in here"? I've heard it numerous times, and no one's ever taken it the wrong way. It's not even a slang insult or anything; the closest Google found was "porch monkey", and that's from an UD entry - and frankly I had never heard of it until today.

People have become overly sensitive, IMO. I don't condone racism in any shape or form, but I think it's quite a stretch to find that as a racist remark.

I am not a prude. However, you cannot say that crap in the venue he is in. If he were to say that **** in the locker room when he played, what would happen? He would get his ass kicked.

Again, why is that "crap"? Is there *any* previous usage of that word as an insult? And again, the context doesn't bear it out as such either...
 
I try and listen to him on multiple occasions and always have to turn it.
