Two statements by Triv (WTAM1100 - Cleveland OH) explain a lot

[zbdent]

First, for those who don't know, Triv is what WTAM 1100 in Cleveland puts on at 3pm so that the dittoheads don't rush headlong back into reality. WTAM is a Clear Channel station.

(This is not a Browns bashing thread, but hey, your team really sucks - Mrs. ZBD is a huge Browns fan and she says they suck)

Anyway, Triv made two statements in less than a week which kinda explains (at least in part) why he loves W.

Last week he mentioned that he didn't really start paying attention to football until around 1968 or 1969.

Yesterday, he was berating a listener, and he mentioned that he'd been a Browns fan since he was peeing in his diapers, and that he will be a Browns fan when he's again peeing in his diapers (something to that effect).

Well, that explains a few things, probably like why he supports W so much. I mean, I was born in 1963, I don't believe I had much problems with "accidents" since about 1966, and this guy is definitely much older than me. So, if he was pissing himself in 1968/1969, . . .

1. I don't listen to AM radio

It's all that squealing, screeching, and static.
And that's just from the hosts.

I didn't know that Mike Trivistiano gave political account. His is a sports show for Christs sake.....Leave it to Clear Channel to require republican boot licking in it's sports talk format.

I'm a Browns fan and I've had a t-shirt sitting out on my dresser for the last four of five Sundays, waiting for a chance to wear it.
Even worse, my buddies stop over in their stupid Steelers gear every week to rub it in....bastards!

Every week while trailing by multiple TDs, I watch Browns players reach the end zone and do a dance and point to the skies as I scream at my TV: YOU SUCK, YOU DUMBASS,....LOOK AT THE SCOREBOARD!!

....and I'm a fan

Thank goodness baseball season is just around the corner.
GO TRIBE!....<sigh>

2. I've earned my right to gloat (about my Stillers)

When I returned to Cleveland in 1989 and had to endure Triv (at that time on WNCX 98.5) punctuating everything with "51 to nothing" like it was the funniest punchline in the world.

Now that the Browns are totally in the crapper, Mr. "We haven't won a sausage" is calling Bill Cowher a loser because he never won the Superbowl. Well, how long ago (in years and head coaches) was the last greatness of the Browns? The Cavs? The Indians? How many sausages have they won since 1964?

(Not a bash at you, but at the shill).

3. Cleveland fans with thin skins apparently don't go out in public much

4. Trivisano an ass

Stopped listening to 1100 long ago when even in his sports talk show he has to put his political imput of how great b**h is. Typical pug if you don't agree with someone you should be able to attack them(after all we're the good old USA).
He did a show years ago I'll never forget. It was call in and suggest the top 50 sexiest women ever. Someone called in and suggested Halle Berry which was possibly okay with him since she was 50% white. This lasted for at least 2 hrs that he didn't think a black women should qualify. I thought he'd be fired but thats clear channel for you. KKK ...the republican party

5. Yeah, the "decency" station has him play (once in a while) the

"old lady caller with the baseball innuendo"

Also, at least before Janet Jackson's boob, the station would play the bumper "the station with all the balls".
