    I don't know anyone who listens to that station. And I certainly don't know anyone who listens to the John Thompson Show.

    My three reasons for listening to 980, Ryan, are easy:

    Mr. Tony, Czaban & Pollin.

    I'll no longer be able to hear about Big John laying on his sofa, watching the Celtics and eating a sausage sammich.

    Weird John Thompson radio story. He would have been on one of the hijacked 9/11 planes if not for the persistence of a booker working for Jim Rome at the time who wanted him on Rome's FSN show at the time.

    Mr. Tony is definitely worth listening to.

    Mr. Thompson, on the other hand, was definitely difficult to listen to.

    I knew he was supposed to be on Flight 77, didn't know about the Rome tidbit.

    The bad news is Doc Walker takes over. Bad radio continues.
