I can believe it. In El Paso a talk radio station that carried Beck and Dennis Miller changed formats to sports talk (making 3 of the 6 english AM stations sports oriented). I listened for a little bit and was disgusted by how much importance grown men were putting on entertainment. I can understand the hosts as there is money to be made from sports fans (just like there is money to be made from payday loans) but the people calling in who really, really, cared were just sad.

I don't know how the sports shows stay on the air. I had to travel recently and my satellite radio was screwed up, so I drove through several hours of sports talk. The callers are asinine. I wanted to park my car in a garage and leave it running, while I drifted off to the sweet release of death, after listening to a couple of hours of that nonsense.
