What is happening on 96.7 right now ? Is this a usual Sunday night, this shit sounds like the Freak but worse

Delkus is so bad at weather forecasts. He should download one of the weather apps on his phone.

It certainly seems like most DFW meteorologists have been flat out wrong since the begging of spring.

I'm not a fan either, but I feel like that's exactly why Dan has him on. A guy he likes that he knows some listeners might not.Two birds, one stone-levels of trolling. Or maybe I'm giving him too much credit.

Let’s cut neighbor Tom stories back a bit


jack_russell_terror

Why is Neighbor Tom’s (likely exaggerated) anecdote on soccer a metric that Junes keeps coming back to every time he talks soccer? I lived next to a bar around 2015/16ish that opened early for soccer on Saturdays and it was rowdy and loud from 6:30am til about noon when the last match ended, but I don’t use that as proof every sports bar is like that

spacesuitz

The last thing on my mind is if the pump is diesel


crlb2005

We all agree Denver isn’t a great team and has no staying power? And no dynasties/great teams anymore even though GS just won 4? Is George awake? These are truly terrible NBA takes that Craig seems to think are mainstream


GoodDecisionCoach

It’s a perfectly reasonable sports point. Denver, Toronto, and Milwaukee won’t be remembered like the 90s Bulls.


crlb2005

“The recent champs aren’t as good as the sport’s greatest and most iconic team of all time” is so unremarkable that it seems like only an idiot would even find it worth mentioning. So, assume Craig meant not as good as lots of other teams. But in this case, people literally do compare the 4x champ Warriors to the ‘90’s Bulls so I guess I’m just totally lost on this one haha


spacesuitz

Craig went down the line of every team and highlighted their failures or lack of hope going forward… Craig has lost his way with basketball the more we move further away from the ABA


StarsCowboysMavs

Musers overrate Mike McCarthy


TommyTompkins

He is so incredibly unimpressive and underwhelming and has been since his very first press conference. I don’t believe for a second that this guy is busting his ass every day. He looks and acts a lot more like a guy who (understandably) enjoys all the perks of the job and comes in every day ready to eat a bunch of food, drink some beers later on and probably squeeze in a nap or two along the way.


DannyboyLarson

Seems like Mike or Will McClay have finally broken through to Ol' Jerry. The moves they made this year were way too logical and good for a normal cowboys offseason


OwlNinja

So very Bob to be in Vegas and constantly tweeting about sports.


Gopokes34

Idk how his family or anyone around him deals with it. I’ll hear he’s on vacation or something with family and then see Twitter and bob is just tweeting nonstop. Does this guy ever put down his phone?


TommyTompkins

I think the Musers need to convene an emergency Troy Aikman show so Gordo can ask him about the latest developments in his love life: https://nypost.com/2023/06/07/troy-aikman-seemingly-announces-end-of-marriage-with-pda-pics/ Sure Gordo can go too far sometimes but I still say Troy wronged him in that interview and really showed his ass that morning.

Why is the Hardline in vegas? Just because?

I'm pretty sure the Circa hotel paid for the trip. It's a new resort with a giant sportsbook, so it's a promotional thing.

mill_about_smartly

Dan & Jake laughing out of the room a suggestion that several other stations on the dial are capable of is classic. At least they agree and know how stupid their company is. *A Cumulus Station*


Ok_Ambition_1535

That moment really gave me slump-shoulder


mill_about_smartly

Anytime I saw Jonah Heim on TV, I always felt like he gave me hockey player vibes, and I couldn't explain it. That Norm interview COMPLETELY confirmed those suspicions.

Did Craig just say Osprey in a crazy way during his film segment? Or am I crazy?


WWheisenberg92

I did not have Craig gate keeping the Jordan shrug on my bingo card! Weird


NorahJonestown

Yeah that was bizarre to listen to. And his reasoning made no sense- “you shouldn’t be doing that in this game, it’s the NBA finals.” A player at the highest level of their sport shouldn’t be cocky?


VZandt

ScruffyGeist

7 minutes is not 3 minutes, Bob. But I don’t blame him. Broke-ass garbage company Cumulus needs to stop making the hosts lie to listeners about how long breaks are going be.


Ron_Kazoo18

LIV golf segments, let’s cut that back a little bit.


theadulttour

Jake's hard stance on airpods is really dumb. he's got 3 different pairs of headphones just to prove his point. but really he's just exposing himself as high maintenance. one for working out (basically airpods with a string attached), one for the car, and airpods for bed.


StargasmSargasm

This PGA story doesn't intrigue me at all. Like, it's just golf. Lol. Am I missing something?


Ok_Knowledge_5997

You aren’t missing anything. I golf and watch it and I have a had time caring all that much about it. Same goes for College football alignment talk.


macspiano

golf is sacred


GoodDecisionCoach

It's not just golf. That's what you're missing.


Still_Detail_4285

It really is just golf. The Saudis have their hands in everything. We all support them.


Ron_Kazoo18

We might have the greatest ranger team in the history of ever. I think that might deserve more segments than golf.


VZandt

I can’t seem to get them on TV


GoodDecisionCoach

It's. Not. Just. About. Golf.


Ron_Kazoo18

I think the quote by the LIV exec calling Rory a little bitch is awesome, because he is one.


GoodDecisionCoach

That's really weird, man.


Ron_Kazoo18

Nope. I enjoy golf. Watching it and playing it. But I’d rather watch paint dry than listen to Golf Sports talk.


NorahJonestown

Ham with the Phish return cut at 2 made me happy for about five seconds until I remembered the Sirois bros are gone. RIP.

All sinners repent the end times are near… Hangzone just did went —> baseball > golf > soccer > more golf — all in a non sarcastic or mocking way😮 Not complaining just stunned. Still 100x better than some spare podcast audio.


PinstripeBunk

Dan’s cynicism isn’t as edgy as he thinks.


BornWorried

When talking about LIV, Jake tried to say that he and Dan are “pragmatic’ not cynical. They’re cynical as hell! Dan is Mr. “And that’s called the way it is.”


Gopokes34

“I’m not gonna weep for Degrom” Sigh


Gopokes34

The hangzones bitterness towards people that benefit from nepotism or how Jake was acting about Post Malone getting big gives me tired head.


[deleted]

jake is admittedly biased, as Posty totally screwed over the guy who helped him become who he became, who is a good friend of Jake's


csquared34

I think this is true of a lot of big artists. I know Travis Scott screwed over many people in the Houston area to get where he is.


Still_Detail_4285

What’s the story behind that? Because getting one single out there seems like how most pop stars are made now. Jake seems like he wanted him to have three shitty albums and play bars for $30 and free beer before becoming famous.


Gopokes34

Ya look at a Beiber. Discovered from YouTube.


TommyTompkins

It’s nice of the good contractor guy in his latest spot to explain that sometimes the problem is not the shitty contractor you found on his list but rather that you’re bitching too much about it.


VZandt

Not everybody is for sale.


grubesismyleader

A wise man once said "every man has a price"


Still_Detail_4285

We all go to work everyday and there is no way we would do that if we didn’t need money.


DannyboyLarson

I am, if anyone is buying


Ok_Knowledge_5997

If the Saudis come in and offer multi million contracts to Ticket Hosts to work half as much they are saying no?


p1tobeone

Very few people will ever experience being sat down and offered 7-8 figures. I doubt many normal people could say no to that.


GoodDecisionCoach

That's not the issue. Golfers don't even have the right to say no to Saudi money anymore.


Still_Detail_4285

The US is SA’s largest trading partner. We all benefit from SA money. It’s just a fact of life.


GoodDecisionCoach

And if you think that's a good enough reason to force Americans to work directly for them...well, then I can't help you.


Still_Detail_4285

They can make money through golf in other ways, just not that much money. No one is forcing them to play professional golf. All these PGA guys take money from all sorts of questionable companies. International banks that work with terrible governments, pharmaceutical companies, I mean the Saudis own Uber. Get off your high horse. The US Government has no problem with people working with Saudi companies. We sell them weapons. Hard to hold dumb golfers to a higher standard than our government. Most people have no idea what groups/people are investors in the company they work for.


GoodDecisionCoach

>Get off your high horse. I wasn't making a moral argument, you mouth-breather. I don't begrudge the guys who took the cash. That's their choice. I just want the guys who didn't take the cash to be treated fairly, too. I ask again: why should an American be forced to work directly for Saudi Arabia if they don't want to?


Still_Detail_4285

I’ve read Breath so I am a full nose breather, I’ll have you know. As I said, no one is forcing them to be professional golfers. You think the NFL is some upstanding organization that has no bad money invested in it? Calm down, It’s just golf. Once football starts no one will care. The PGA Tour look like clowns because they were poorly run for years.


GoodDecisionCoach

>As I said, no one is forcing them to be professional golfers. So work for the Saudis, or don't work at all? Is that really your position?


Still_Detail_4285

They can do other things in golf. If they want to make the most money possible, the Saudi owned PGA Tour is the best option. There has always only been one big golf tour, players never had a choice about how that league was funded, and never cared to even ask. You should probably look into how all stadiums and arenas get funded. You think the Saudis aren’t buying up bonds? The NBA changed their rules to attract investment from them. Who cares. The Browns are owned by a guy that fucked every American over with a gas scheme fucking over truckers. No one gives a shit.


GoodDecisionCoach

>The NBA changed their rules to attract investment from them. Who cares. The Browns are owned by a guy that fucked every American over with a gas scheme fucking over truckers. No one gives a shit. Yeah, including me. Why do you keep bringing up this irrelevant nonsense? And what other things can they do in golf? All the tours are now owned by the Saudis. How is that not a monopoly?


Ok_Knowledge_5997

Cumulus merges with Saudi company who offers millions to hosts. They aren’t allowed to quit?


GoodDecisionCoach

They can go to other radio stations. Pro golfers don't have that option.


Walter_Whiteknuckles

i think the word is monopoly


VZandt

Good Gordos corner this morning


jack_russell_terror

Pour one out for Jub, he is not taking this LIV/PGA merger very well. It feels very personal for him


ticketticker22

Saudi’s don’t put F150’s on the breakfast table like PGA do


LevergedSellout

While very on brand, he is way too tied up in the biscuits and gravy / tradition element. I still remain baffled that the only time we seem to care what KSA is investing in / who they are doing business with is when golf is involved.


GoodDecisionCoach

The Commander has a legitimate grievance.

jrqberry

Love me some Jub but him saying “we all have loyalty to brands and what they stand for” is a mindset I don’t get. Seems extremely naive.


LevergedSellout

jub is the guy who is shocked to learn professional athletes on his favorite team probably aren’t fans of that team.


average-matt43

Jub is the guy who is shocked to learn his favorite pro athletes aren’t saints.


LevergedSellout

but also thinks minor misdemeanors may lead to jail time for them


JinnRa

Jub is very much a traditionalist, especially wrt things like golf. It must really stick in his craw that the Saudis can effectively swoop in and just buy up his beloved PGA. Like he said this afternoon, "Arnie must be rolling over in his grave."


GoodDecisionCoach

Advertising is designed to persuade and even manipulate people. If you don't understand that, then you're not as smart and worldly as you seem to think you are.


Collecting_Cans

I can see it. Think about how people react when their favorite local dive for years suddenly goes corporate. Heck, Texans were upset when Whataburger sold out to a Chicago company, of all things.


AlertHighlight

Uh Stars on Mars was last night Dave. But appreciate ya anyway pal!


KRDaMoney

What do you mean "our game our tour", jub? 🏳️‍🌈 🤣


amijeremy

Good lord I don’t care enough about golf to listen to this PGA/LIV merger talk. Jub is mad as hell though.


Gopokes34

What league is Saudi gonna get next? Nba?


GoodDecisionCoach

That would be my guess. The NBA's courting of China didn't work: it hasn't been very profitable, China hasn't produced any NBA stars since Yao, and sucking up to Beijing has rightfully opened the league up to charges of hypocrisy on their social justice campaigns. But the NHL could be vulnerable. Everyone knows they are #4 of the four major sports, and the collapse of the RSNs hurts them even more than it hurts baseball. They are ripe for sportswashing.


Gopokes34

Good point. I was thinking nba just because it’s more global I guess.


DannyboyLarson

mill_about_smartly

It's not really my thing, but the YouTube/twitch numbers are clear that it's huge - what percentage of the P1 do y'all think are gamers?


Gopokes34

Hard to gauge. I know guys do it, but I’m near 30 and not one of my friends does. And I know there’s circles where they all do it.


mill_about_smartly

Same. I'm about to turn 30 and my friends and I definitely would play Halo on the XBOX on some weekends in high school, and I play my fair share of adventurey open world games now, but I don't think I've ever once sat down to watch somebody else play video games online.


csquared34

I’d guess maybe like 30-40%. Not much of a gamer cause I’m 30 and don’t smoke weed anymore but it was definitely a huge part of my childhood + early adult years


mill_about_smartly

I should've clarified: I meant not just gamers, but I mean like actively IN to "esports". So I'm thinking more like less than 1/10th of what you're estimating


foddon

I had to make an effort to transcribe this. Jake: "how does Jay Monahan derive his power, is he appointed?" Rick: "he's voted in. I mean he gets, I believe he gets to be voted. I might be a little wrong on that I'm not sure but I think that's how it... the commissioner is appointed. I'm under the impression they're appointed by the players, it could be with the PGA tour board. As mentioned, I don't believe the players have a whole lot of say." I'm insane now


GoodDecisionCoach

He didn't seem to know much of anything, to be honest.


TommyTompkins

I’ve long thought he’s the Pippen to Rosengarden’s Jordan, toiling in the shadows all these years but himself a great too when it comes to some seriously wheels-off moments.


Antelope-Subject

That’s what happens after years of working with Craig Rosen Rosen.


GoodDecisionCoach

How can he say the players have no leverage? They can go on strike. We've seen the ratings the LIV guys get by themselves. Plus, they can just sue the PGA Tour for the same monopolistic grounds that LIV did. And they've already proven they are terrified of discovery.


Still_Detail_4285

The players are 1099. If they strike they are just walking away from all money. With todays deal, the best way to make money as a golfer is to take the SA money. Also, sponsorship money does not get paid if the don’t play a certain amount each year.


GoodDecisionCoach

>The players are 1099. If they strike they are just walking away from all money. Yes, but they are taking money away from the PGA Tour and LIV golf as well. And they will have the media and most of the public on their side. And that's just on top of the threat to take the PGA Tour through the discovery process in an anti-monopolistic lawsuit. That's probably the main reason they caved to LIV, so there's no reason the PGA players can't sue them on the same grounds. Their monopoly case would be even stronger now that the rebel tour has joined forces with the PGA Tour. If I was a player who stayed loyal to the tour, I don't see how I could do business with a snake like Monahan anymore. He did all this behind their backs, but in their names. He made them look like fools. It's more than money: it's ego and pride as well. They have leverage, and I hope they use it.


AlertHighlight

I knew I could count on my leaders the HZ to rip on the sanctimony of golf


JumpinJack2

I know the station advertises some questionable companies already but adding a confirmed pyramid scheme like Advocare is great.

I'd be willing to bet that most of the pro LIV golf dick riders didn't even watch golf to begin with or even tune in to watch that garbage on the CW.

Ive watched golf decades AND supported LIV from day-1. What is wrong with competition? Why is PGA a excused monopoly to the blow hard golf fans?


Fifi3000

What drew you in shotgun starts and team golf? lol


DannyboyLarson

Of course not, most people just love the chaos


GoodDecisionCoach

Yeah, it pisses me off that people are rooting for one of my favorite sports to fail just because they don't like it.


kpdiddy

I’ve never loved golf talk more than today. I’m so rooting for its complete destruction. This is like Christmas in June for me.


Fifi3000

Sorry but that's a really lame take.


GoodDecisionCoach

Yeah, you're exactly the type of person I'm talking about. I just can't comprehend being this petty.


Fifi3000

Its ok to not like golf but cheer for this is really weird. Maybe they will take on the NFL or NBA next. They've proven money isn't an issue.

DistributionStreet58

The PGA Tour and the PGA of America are 2 separate entities and operate independently. They actually don't get along even though they share a similar name.

After all the work Frisco did to lure them to town, that would be pretty hilarious if they just picked up and went to Saudi after less than a year
