A real jerk thing
I mean, did anyone seriously pay attention to the intermission interviews before Potash either? Hockey players just mumble cliches and drip sweat.
Anyone been following the Madden vs Colin Dunlap twitter feud?
People hating on Potash are the exact kind of people I DON’T want to know.
You'll get over it.
I have no clue if it happens elsewhere. I don’t really follow any other cities.Yeah. Is this sort of thing common in other media markets?
OT, but most of the 93.7 talent is trash. How anyone thought Ron Cook should be on the radio is beyond me; the man has a voice made for the silent screen, and opinions to match. MM has a shtick that is tiresome at best, but at least he knows hockey, and is tolerable on football.

But you’re right about the fan. There’s only 1-2 guys I can put up with on that station. The rest of it is just total garbage, and the format of their shows is absolutely terrible. 5 minute segment, 5 minute advertisement (read by the hosts...like WTF, shouldn’t they be talking sports and not be shills), commercial, update, repeat. And it seems like half the time during their segments they are BSing about irrelevant crap. It’s a terrible sports talk station, too bad it’s the only full-time one in town.
Sara Civian, despite covering the Hurricanes for the Athletic, can’t help but constantly express her hate for the Penguins/Pittsburgh because of her experience with DK I guess.
Yeah one other tweet was from a week or so ago but I guess to be fair, it was more targeted towards the Penguins media. As for DK, he still has his “lunatics” that keep him afloat, but the growth is done you figure. Feeble attempt right now to get more by slashing his annual subscription price.I mean, I just checked her twitter and she only had one tweet about the Penguins in the last two days and it was in response to a Pens fan saying they're tired of the Canes "feel good story"
Regardless, disliking DK is par of the course really. I'm amazed he's still going.
Sara has a very sarcastic sense of humor and seems to enjoy playing into the meme-culture that has overtaken social media. So I wouldn't take anything Pens/Pittsburgh oriented to heart, because it's likely tongue-in-cheek.Sara Civian, despite covering the Hurricanes for the Athletic, can’t help but constantly express her hate for the Penguins/Pittsburgh because of her experience with DK I guess.

No doubt. "El Presidente" Dave Portnoy is a shitty human, and it's a joke that so many people made him rich and famous.DK is a cockroach, but at least he's not barstool sports. Which is an incredibly low and sad bar to clear, but there you go.
I wonder how much of that he requests in dollar bills.Mark Madden just said he makes close to a half a million dollars a year, lol.

I hear Barstool sports getting trash talked a lot, why is that? I find their spittin chiclets podcast with Ryan Whitney and Paul Bisonette to be pretty good, but its the only Barstool sports media i consume admiteddly so i dont hear much of their other stuff.
Sexism and toxic masculinity run wild and have caused tons of issues for them.
Yikes well can't say i support any of that. The podcast though, great stories on there.
Yeah. Seems like Whitney and Biz make sure to come off as respectful as a bunch of hockey bros can.
Mark Madden just said he makes close to a half a million dollars a year, lol.
Yeah that’s the thing - I don’t question his overall wealth, but the actual income from local radio and a few cheap columns... lol.If he's extremely good with investments, sure, I can see that. Just from radio and writing work? And in Pittsburgh? Absolutely not.
