I think that is false. They differ in opinion often, but I think they get along. Steve has been coming on the show regularly for years. 4 hours ago, GunnerBill said: A corker from yesterday's show was "Jim Kelly has done more than any other player from his era in his retirement". That, predictably, was Murph. Tasker did remind him that John Elway built a Superbowl Champion team. Murphy was quoting someone else, if I remember correctly, but he did agree with that person. I think they were meaning off the field contributions with charity and community work and stuff like that. 3 hours ago, corta765 said: I like the show enough but Murph absolutely has a more pro Bills vibe then his previous radio show before the Bills partnered with WGR. I think he was willing to be more objective back then he can't now with the parternship between the Bills and WGR. FYI thats the norm across all teams from what I've seen. My buddy is a huge Cowboys fan and their show is very "state radio" controlled message that really won't dip into the weeds much. Murphy has also gotten increasingly thinner skin. He takes offense to everything and can't handle Twitter attacks. Edited June 7, 2018 by MJS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have much thinner skin if I had to deal with so many idiotic callers. I think the guy deserves a medal. How many callers phone in saying the exact same thing as the previous caller? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FappyTheClown Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I wonder how long it took them to come up with such an innovative name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many callers phone in saying the exact same thing as the previous caller? Not only that the amount of hair brained suggestions people make would make me have a dwindling patience. The two year reign of "There is something about Jeff Tuel, I've watch football for 40 years and this kid has it" by various callers in Cheektowaga and else where would've forced me into retirement.

Great listen, thanks for posting. The more I hear Josh Allen speak and speak at length, the more impressive he gets. It was a little thing, but when they asked about he and Phillips taking the pics with the wedding party at the stadium the other day, the first thing he mentioned, the first, was that Austin Proehl was also in the picture as well. A little thing like I said, but indicative of the kind of teammate he will be. Can't believe they had a "convicted rapist" on there as a guest, though.

vincec Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Steve Tasker is horrible. Sad to say. I was listening today and he couldn't get a single fact straight on the topic of the day: the Bennett Trade. He couldn't remember who was traded, what teams they went to, whether they were good when they got there... wtf? He was in the league at this time. Plus, you'd think he would do a little preparation on the topic of the day before the show starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to refrain from criticizing these guys as much as possible as I generally expect little from these shows. I'm an easy grader, just give me some decent discussion and a few laughs, and I'm good. But you're 100% correct in your assessment. Murph needed a "conversationalist" to compliment his inability to talk normally to guests. Tasker is no such thing. His memory might be distorted from the hits he took, but it seems like reads his rundown from the show's producers on his way to the stadium each morning. The minimal preparation it seems he does is apparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being at the tail end of rehab from TBI myself (car accident), there are strategies to deal with memory issues and he needs to be using them if that's his deal - you take notes for crap you wouldn't ordinarily get notes for, use mental focus techniques to clear your mind of clutter, etc etc. At a guess, he's mailing it in. Although I guess you only change your routine and go looking for coping strategies if you get the 4x4 memo that "Something is Wrong!". If you're faced with a gradual decline, it's probably harder to accept and go looking for help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unfortunate, the team seems willing to invest in a serious show with some production value. That 12-3 slot could and should be fantastic.

Bad Things Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 So... I'm a couple days behind listening to their podcast. I just finished listening to the most annoying/frustrating segment I just about EVER heard on the radio. It was the episode when they found out that TO wasn't going to attend the NFL HOF ceremony. Steve's behaviour was unbelievable. (Even though I shared his same opinion.) The way he went on and on bitching and complaining was just pathetic. I lost a lot of respect for #89 today.
