Highest rated =/= good. 610 has high ratings because their shows appeal to the casual, often informed, sports fan in Houston. This type of fan knows about 610 because they know they carry the Texans games and they don't bother to find other stations in town. These types of sports fans are also more likely to agree with or get worked up about what is said by brash, loud and opinionated sports talk hosts, which is, I assume, why 610 has doubled down on these types of hosts. And to answer your question about Josh Innes, the reason this has become a conversation about him is because many on these boards, myself included, feel that Josh Innes typifies what is wrong with Sports Radio 610 and really, sports talk radio at large. OP, I agree with your sentiment that someone that texts the station incessantly probably needs to get a life, but we might be able to say the same about you if you feel the need to come running to Clutchfans to complain about it. Why do you care?
Whoops. Should read "often uninformed," not "often informed." What a difference a couple of letters makes.
610 doesn't and never has supported the Rockets. Screw em. This is a Rockets fan website. Don't come here looking for support/pity where 610 is concerned. That excuse for a sports station doesn't even follow the Rockets enough to know the basics...much less give knowledgeable sports opinion.
Fox News gets high ratings. Paul Blart: Mall Cop was a high grossing movie. Nickelback is one of the most profitable bands. I could go on.
Josh you are a 3rd rate JT The Brick, I think you will eat a chalupa with more talent than you will ever foster a proper radio programme. Kindly eat my dick.
I think he's more than butt hurt. Based on original post, I would classify this as a case of a ruptured colon.
Love 610 for one reason. Texans coverage. There are shows I don't listen to, because they suck....mostly mid day show. But always listen to the morning stuff and Arian Foster show.
They're not a sports show. They talk a lot of nonsense and laugh at their terrible jokes for most of the show. It's dumb.
