    I used to listen to 93X exclusively. Then I grew up. (Which is not to say you can't be grown up and listen to it. There's just WAAAAAAYYY too much pop rock now instead of true alternative rock.)

        The half-assed morning show still makes me chuckle. The music blows though.

          Oh I completely agree. He's probably the best sports guy I've ever heard on the radio. (Except for his latest streak of insisting college players get paid. But at least he argues it intelligently.)

            I like the Powertrip most days. Some days it isn't very good, but others I think it is very good, so usually just roll with it. I used to listen to the half assed morning show, but I really don't like the music anymore, and KQ is ok, but I like to get some sports news on the way to work, so Powertrip is really the only option.

              At least the 30 for 30 documentaries were mostly good. Looking forward to the Bartman one that just started.

                ... And the first 15 minutes are about Bill Buckner in 1986.

                Of course.

                  Some of them have been excellent -- so much so it's hard to believe ESPN had anything to do with them. The Gretzky one blew, though, which was a big disappointment.

                      Pony Excess was my favorite. I just knew the hockey one was going to stink because ESPN had it's name attached to it.

                        Aren't they mostly documentaries that have been made and ESPN is just airing them (and selling them as a package)?

                          That explains it.

                          I was honestly surprised the first time I saw one (I forget which, maybe that skateboard guy) that it was completely lacking in the syrupy pablum that is the hallmark of TWSL.

                            I'll give ESPN credit tonight, showing all four of the MLB games with meaning tonight on the season's final day.

                              I'm happier with my $15 a month. XM is a scam.
