    that's a bummer as those guys were great together. Frankly I think they were pretty much the only sports talk worth listening too (maybe Jody McDonald also).

    Yeah, Russo doesn't realize it yet but he's on the way to committing career suicide. Hope the money is good!

    (Carton)

    true true. well, Boomer's a Ranger fan and seems to have some hockey knowledge ... Carton, on the other hand, i think he's just warming up to the sport.

    Howard has turned to shit. I gave up my satellite subscription ... not worth it. I'm tired of hearing about the plight of strippers and porn actresses. His show deteriorated into sybian rides and advertisements for Sirius. Dude! Howard, I have Sirius, stop telling me how fucking great you think it is. Stop trying to sell it to me!

    I'm back to free radio.

    dude they're all self-centered. how can you talk for 5 hours a day and NOT be self-centered?

    they have to be entertaining ... and Carton definitely is.

    really I gave it up because the technology wasn't living up to the hype ... or the price. seriously, I'd be under a fucking tree and lose service.

    Good riddance? I can't believe you're ripping them just because they don't talk hockey..how bitter can you get? Aside from a handful of you, no one gives a shit about hockey, thus a program could not survive talking about it..no one gives a flying fuck about hockey..shit, this sucks..

    I know, but at least he has earned it after 20 fucking years..Carton uses 7th grade Howard Stern type rip-off jokes..whatever, I guess it's working..
