    It is pretty easy to understand the sports radio landscape in houston. If you are more knowledgable than a knowledgable sports fan then you are a favorite.

    I can say that these guys say things all the time that make me smarter:

    CP
    Z
    MattJ
    Wex

    then there are the guys that are smart but really can't talk properly so they sound dumb. Those are:

    Rich
    Granato
    Marc


    then there are the guys that I wish were good but just aren't:

    Sean
    Justice
    Neno

    then there are the haters, they sound jeolous and have bad takes:

    Lopez
    Delouca

    I wish I were good, too. It would make my job so much easier.

    By the way, how many times do I have to post before I have "LURKER" removed from my profile? Please don't tell me it's like 14,000.

    "Lurker" ... I feel creepy ... like the ice cream man. And I don't mean one of those legit ice cream men with the picture of the Good Humor ice cream bar on the side of their truck. I mean the ones that have a 20 year old used van with a makeshift window cut out of the side and the words "ICe CreeM" painted on the by hand on the passenger door.

    Marc is unintentionally hilarious sometimes.

    I was listening to the Adam Clanton experience this morning, and Marc was punch drunk from sleep deprivation and said something like "Its perfectly fine to shoot cops in the 3rd Ward"


    Now, he was talking about the TV Show Cops, and was trying to clarify a previous statement he had just made about the 3rd Ward, but it was after Clanton and the intern were already talking about some other subject and he just kind of blurts out "Its perfectly fine to shoot Cops in the 3rd Ward"

    I laughed.

    I just want to give props to the time he said Shawn Marion looks like teen wolf shooting jumpers. The teen wolf dance is the best.

    Too tell you the truth I listened fully to your FIRST show hoping that you would be as good as you were on Rome. I would listen to you right after Rome at 2 while at work. I thought "This guy would be the best on Houston radio". I waited for it and was kinda disappointed with the result.

    I guess you can't do what made you famous on Rome daily and you have to grow into you role.

    Maybe do a "Sean Report" that would be your daily strong take. I think that would be pretty good. I would listen for that.

    HAHA......Did you really just say you listened to the FIRST show to defend your opinion after he's been on the air for nearly 2 years. Might want to tune in a little more than once on the man's first day before you're saying he's not good at what he does.

    I was about to post the same thing. You listen to the guy's very first show then tell him you wish he was better? He is.

    Well, we're in the same boat there, because I thought I sucked on my first day, too. But to be fair, I think we all probably sucked the first day at most things we do.

    And trust me, four hours of what I used to do for four minutes on Rome would get old. Quickly.

    The underrated subplot in your post is that you were actually able to HEAR our first show since our transmitter consisted of a coat hanger duct taped to a rake. I think this made you one of three people who heard us (with me and Harris being the other two).

    I listen to 1560... Especially the guys that aren't good, and the guys that can't speak...

    my two cents...

    Can someone rank the best radio shows to listen to for Rockets talk? I really don't have much interest in anything else.

    Charlie Pallilo sounds very informed, but his voice is hard to listen to after a while. And it's like he's delivering a lecture -- doesn't engage callers very well, doesn't seem to do many interviews, and there's little to no dialogue between him and others that may be in studio.

    Lance and John are aggravating for the opposite reason. Too much talking and laughing over one another -- often about things totally off topic -- not enough focused sports takes. But I respect Lance's opinions on the Rockets, when he's able to deliver them.

    Lopez and the other guy on 790 ... next to worthless for their opinions on the Rockets.

    I like Matt Jackson's takes a lot. Adam Clanton is pretty funny, and I like how passionate he is about the team, but he doesn't come off as particularly well-informed. He's like one of us. Adam Wexler is pretty good, clearly very bright, but he needs to be paired up with someone -- MattJ + Adam were a very good combination for Rockets talk.
