    A complete non-story, and the biggest waste of a thread I have ever fucking seen.

    Joe Beningo, on WFAN in NY has a verbal tic where he calls everyone "Bro" that I find distracting. Then again, his competition is Kellerman who I like when he talks sports, but the egomania, even to the extent that it's an act is very irritating. Most people who I like, I don't mind their tangents & personal interjections, I get annoyed hearing the ramblings of Rome & SAS, but I don't like hearig them on topic either. Kellerman, whether it's the army, hip-hop, his status in the radio heirarchy etc. is very much the exception, because he's pretty good on sports, but his schtick is dreadful.

    The outrage! That's really saying something seeing as how there was a multiple page thread last week about whether or not people peed in the shower.
