i got on the phone with tim cates when he was filling in for Lee Klein.
I dont understand how that guy has a job in SPORTS radio.
He has no clue about the game of basketball...NONE
I asked him if he actually watched the games or looked at boxscores. He never answered the question and went rambling on about kobes shot attempts and cut me off. |

I attempted to call into Hacksaw's show when he was drive-time. Frankly, I have no idea how people ever get their calls on the radio. After burning up about 40 minutes on my cellphone and jabbering with one of the screeners for a bit, Lee announced a surprise guest (some retired Dodger or something) and I just hung up. _________________ Dumbledore closed his eyes and slowly lowered his head before Kupchak. "Teach me," he whispered. |

On the Loose Cannons they keep those folks on hold for an hour or longer...definitely not a caller-driven show.
If you actually want to get through and on the air, call Dave Smith or even Fred Roggin. |

No, because I think caller-driven shows are dumb (sorry Dave). If I wanted to hear what a bunch of other schmucks like me think, I'd go talk about it in a bar or on the internet. I already do that. I think sports talk radio is best when calls are kept to a minimum. |

Must be the same day i tried to call in. I remember the guy telling me..."stay tuned bud, its almost your turn.." 20 mins later..."hold on, your coming up next"...."...special guest on the show..."........click
I tried Dave smith...i got thru after holding after 2 guys...probably a 8 minute wait.
I had a chance to talk to Joel Meyers with Laker Reloaded last year. |

That sounds about right.
Screener: "Hey guy, are you ready to talk to 'The Saw'?"
Me: "Yes."
Lee "Hacksaw" Hamilton: "I've been informed we have a special guest on the hotline, former Dodger 3rd base coach and five-time Hall of Nobodies nominee Zapp Brannigan..." _________________ Dumbledore closed his eyes and slowly lowered his head before Kupchak. "Teach me," he whispered. |

Tim Cates is Bud Dickman from the Phil Hendrie show...
I've called that hater Jorge Sedano(Miami homer) and set him straight as far as Kobe and the Lakers are concerned....
I have also called Hacksaw when he had a show about the Raiders....
I've talked to Kevin wheeler on sporting news radio several times as well all about the Lakers Raider and Dodgers.... _________________ 16 and counting.... |
