Re: Ted Leonsis Bashes Sports 980 Coverage of Beckham game
Andy Pollin and Steve Czaban are both complete assholes. If it's not the Redskins or Wizards they can't be bothered. It's nice to see someone in the DC sports community call them on it.

I normally don't find Pollin to be that bad. However, Steve is another story. He's an idiot on so many levels that it's hard to really know where to start on him. Oh well, such is life.

Re: Ted Leonsis Bashes Sports 980 Coverage of Beckham game
You can go further than assholes. The two of them have demonstrated in their commentary in the past that they're racists. I don't doubt for a second that that fuels a lot of their attitude.
EDIT: To be fair, I shouldn't refer to them collectively as racists. That's wrong. It's Czaban who's demonstrated such.

Re: Ted Leonsis Bashes Sports 980 Coverage of Beckham game
even when Czaban talks about the 'Skins it is clear he doesn't know what he is talking about, I can't think of one person that likes him, maybe him bashing soccer and United will draw more people to it. I HATE Czaban and B Mich, and John Thompson, although I can't hate him, he knows NOTHING about any sport other than basketball and he turns EVERYTHING into a race issue

For the record, I despise Czaban. Despise. But I haven't heard him say anything racist. Do you have some examples for us? I don't doubt you really, I just would like to judge for myself.

People still listen to 980? Wow. They've been off my preselects for years. Who needs them?

It's been discussed in earlier threads over the years. See this one for an example.

Re: Ted Leonsis Bashes Sports 980 Coverage of Beckham game
Those idiots are the worst! They think they're soooo clever and witty. I swear, I'd love to take a shot at them.
Please, someone get them to meet me in Lot 8 for a rumble.  I'll only use my feet, just to make a point.
