STOP FORCING THE NON-PROFESSIONAL

Please refer to Bill Burr’s bit on the WNBA and realize it is not your listeners job to carry the side of this sport that nobody wants to watch or listen to. Pick up your end of the couch and stop forcing amateurs into discussions on this sport’s best. It does not help grow women’s sport, it hurts it when you put it side by side with men. Grow the sport where WOMEN care about it. It’s the equivalent of adding nude female strippers to a show like Oprah—or, would that not help men watch for more corporate ad money?

Language issue

Should avoid the term “scalps they are taking” - used by the commentator on Football Daily today- when referring to Newcastle wins. This term is unacceptable in North America, referring to Indigenous populations.
