D-list is my favorite local show hands down.  The hosts are knowledgable and their A-list interviews are fantastic.  it is also one of the few shows that spreads the love for MU hoops.

I used to listen to the score.  The score is overrated.  All Chicagoans think it is the greatest sports radio ever.  Mike North might've been the biggest moron on this planet and Boers and Bernstein think they are God's gift to sports radio. 


B&B makes the D-list look like drooling morons....which they are.

And I'm not a Chicagoan.

Here's a newsflash...ALL OF MILWAUKEE RADIO SUCKS! The fact that Bob and Brian have a guy on in the morning to talk sports who doesn't even live in Milwaukee is an embarrassment...as are the two pathetic hosts.
PRN, the newsflash is that sports radio sucks everywhere.  Milwaukee actually is on the higher end.

Bingo.  But FM radio in MKE sucks something fierce...I got Sirius when I got my car 2+ years ago and will NEVER go back.

OK...The one thing I like about B&B is that they challenge the tired sports chiches that are overused in sports radio.  An example was after the Bears beat the Steelers, there were a number of columnists, and fans, who were worried about the lack of a running game - a lack of balance in the offense.  They pointed out that balance doesn't matter necessarily, and that good teams generally have balance because they are running a lot toward the end of games.

Now, Shaq is right in that this is their point and they'll stick to it, and oftentimes ridicule those who disagree with them.  But also they are very entertaining.

The problem I have with the D-list is that they play into cliches more than they challenge them.  And then they get a bunch of callers that reinforce that.  It's just annoying.  And I don't care if Dan Needles won on "Stump the Schwab" - that's sports trivia..not necessarily sports.

I just dont see/hear the same things you are.  They are often pretty on point in their discussions, and dont resort to saying outlandish/ignorant things, just to get people to call in and argue with them...like most sports talk radio shows do.

To each his own, I guess.

Drew Olson was also the President of the Baseball Writers Association of America...they dont generally give that title to drooling morons.  The guy knows what he is talking about.

The best sports radio is when Frank Caliendo comes on and starts imitating/riffing on everyone, especially Rome.   Hilarious.

I listen to WSCR out of Chicago.  Otherwise I pretty much avoid sports radio in general.

and yet you seem to know an awful lot about 540 programming, tendencies, and even regular guests.

A station with "Murph" would need to have Dan Patrick, Tony Kornheiser, Colin Cowherd, and Mike and Mike just to get back to Mediocre

So in general I guess the answer to my question, is no one can give a recap.  Thank you for your time.

And yes I enjoy the D-List.  1250 is insufferable.

Murph was shown the door and Dan Bernstein often fills in for Dan Patrick.

100% agree with you Sultan.

The D-List is the very lowest common denominator of sports thought that B&B talk about.

One thing I love is how they understand that in the overall scheme of things, sports don't matter. 

Some of you on here seem to think that sports radio simply means that a show pro Marquette.  While that's a dumb argument B&B stated in the NCAA tourny last year they are big Buzz Williams fans.

Their producer, Jason Goff, is also one of the best producers in the country.

Murph was let go, thankfully, earlier this year.

When it was on in the late AM, I would occasionally stream it.  I stopped listening before they made the move to the afternoon.

Nice try though.
