I certainly respect your opinion on this, but wow, Grande might be the worst all-time in the history of sports talk radio. He doesn't know how to pronounce the names most of the time, and I swear he must get paid to say 'right there'... as in, 'that was a good game right there'...
Speaking of mispronouncing names, there is a black tennis player named James Blake. B-L-A-K-E. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Blake
Hacksaw repeatedly calls him James Black. I thought it was just a mistake the first time I heard it about 3 months ago. Then he kept saying it... over and over again. For as much as Hacksaw knows, he has to know a prominent tennis player's name. I just don't think you make that same mistake that many times. |
Yes you are right about Grande he is garbage. I really enjoy Matt Smith though. The guy has a good analysis. It would be great if they could put Roger Lodge on that show. Matts postgame Laker show is also better than larry Burnetts. larry would tend to be too condescending on air. |
I hate Joe Grande. Nuff said. |

I think that show is alredy in trouble, they already brought in a third person. Joe Grande is just flat out horrible, he's like a big parrott. Money will say something and he just repeats it.
How in the world did 570 find him fit for the job? Why cant I have that kinda luck, I can repeat what I hear pretty good.

Dave Smith is a (bleep). I think he reads these message boards, and I hope he realizes that 1540 is heard by about 10 people in LA.
He continually said the Lakers would never win a title with Shaq in the late 90's. Nice call Dave!
I'm sorry but this guy is a complete tool and works for the worst radio station in the city. |

Dave also was the one who pointed out Shaq's increasing weight and lack of professionalism...despite the 3 titles and the gentlemen's code with the L.A. media overlooking all that. Dave pretty much told us what Shaq would end up like and its come true. |

| I never said Shaq would not win a title in L.A. I said he'd never win one unless he got serious about his conditioning and the Lakers brought in a quality coach. |

AMEN DAVE, feel the positive flow DO NOT feed from the hate some Laker fans are spewing your way.
Say hi to Big Ben Maller, he wants to meet up with you at the UCLA/SC game tomorrow night! |
