I never thought of Ricky Bustle as a radio guy.

Because some people like the NBA and its nice to have a local team we can associate with. I love when he talks Pelicans and wished he talked it more. Its better than arguing which shortstop is better when comparing their .284 and .265 batting averages.
Also, the pelicans are considered an up and coming franchise. This past year did not show that due to injuries but they made the playoffs last year with the youngest team in the league and have some solid draft slots this year so it makes for interesting talk.
Been done with 1420 for a while. Unless cajun sports is on it...no need to listen. I do miss listening to Stevie P in the morning.
Must be loving this cereal draft this morning.....
I wish they would also talk more about hockey. I know the closest NHL team is Dallas but when the Icegators were in town a lot of hockey fans were born. I don't attend Gator games anymore but I still follow the NHL as best I can. NHL playoff hockey is probably one of the best professional post seasons we have. While I would not devote whole shows to it, I would definitely have a segment or two to fill with the story lines. It's better than listening to Deep South wrestling opinions or like I mentioned in my previous post, a fricking cereal draft.
I also believe Acadiana has a budding Mixed Martial Arts community. The area has put out some serious top organization fighters (Tim Credeur, Dustin Poirier, Daniel Cormier {UFC title holder}, Liz Carmouche, Aaron Phillips, Alan Jouban, Jules Bruchez, Christian Fulgium) who have all made it to the UFC. If the Fightville fights at Evangeline Downs were any indication of the MMA fan base in the area then 1420 should capitalize because it is a year round sport with tons of story lines.
My biggest problem is with the two guys who call in every day to every show and usually talk about the NBA. One guy's name is Jay and, I think, the other guy's name is Ron. Once one word is spoken by one of them, I switch channels. If they're going to get that much air time, why not give them their own shows? That way, I'll know when not to listen.
I only listen from 9-12...best hour is 10-11 daily and 11-12 on Wednesdays
---The best show for me is that aggravating Mr Bitter when Robe is on----tough to listen to that voice and BS but have to give it to him for doing his homework and bringing up great subject matter----and of course the guy that carries the ball is NO DOUBT Robe----but again I give credit to the guy for getting to a point where Robe can interject some just outstanding baseball views!!!
