    I disagree. JT "the brick", who I used to listen to in the morning before DJ and PK took that away, didn't do that. Mitch Levy doesn't do that, for that matter. Hell, it's one thing that separates the good hosts from the bad hosts.

          MG's point, unless I was reading him wrong, is that pretty much everyone states opinion as fact. It's kind of funny to criticize a radio host for doing so when we do the same thing here.

          BTW, I think you would make a wonderful sports radio host.

            You are correct. That was MGs point. My point was that not every radio host does that - the good ones, in my opinion (see what I did there?), don't do that.

              Gunther does a pretty good job breaking down games. As much as he's maligned Hans does the best job in the market. His post-game analysis of the U game was dead on. I know many don't like him but he is really good at the x's and o's. Jan was also very good.

                Is Jan on the radio anymore? I saw him doing a pre-game show on BYUTV with Alema and Brian Logan.

                  No offense to all the Utah sports radio hosts and listeners, but all the local broadcasters are terrible; it's a fact, look it up. Every time I'm back in Deseret, I try and listen for a short time, but inevitably end up changing the channel

                        I agree. I enjoy listening to Hans as much as anyone. I haven't been able to listen to him much until this year. 1280 doesn't carry all the way to Cedar, but 700 does

                          Just curious - what did Hans say about the U game?

                          I enjoy listening to him as well. I was sad when he went to 700, because it seems like the Utes is all he talks about now.

                              I finally moved to a place where the sports radio is as bad as it is in Utah. It took 15 years and several states before it happened. Actually, it's probably still not as bad as Utah, but it's close enough I'll pretend that it is for purposes of this discussion.

                                I actually find him somewhat unlistenable on 700 but I like it when he breaks down games.

                                His basic point was that they way the offensive line was playing no QB could be successful. He then listed several examples to back up his point.
