Listened to the show this morning. Great job as always. You talked about not being able to listen to Mullen use the term the school up north and the like and taking him seriously. Bob mentioned that he didn't say or build up the rivalry this week.

I think the reason for this is that he has had his *** handed to him 2 of the last 3 years going in and he knew this year had the chance for the same thing. One quits talking brash and taunting the opponent when this happens. Same goes for the billboards, this is our state. When is the last time we saw one of those? Why did we not wear an Egg Bowl uni this year?

You stop bringing attention to yourself when you're not confident you can back up what you are saying. When is the last time we've heard Mullen say recruits come here to win championships? Or any of the sayings he used a few years back? It's been a while.

Like Mullen or not; whatever your stance on the status of the program good or bad; we ARE currently at a crossroads. Just as we were after the 2013 season. We went down the right road after 2013, but somewhere along the way we managed to find ourselves right back where we started.

I usually enjoy Bob's attempt to counter-balance Brian, but today's show is plain evidence that Bob lives in an MSU bubble. To those who live in the real world (and that means amongst the Bears), there is nothing in football more important than winning the Golden Egg. I agree with Brian, no season can be considered "great" (or even good in most instances) if you lose the Egg Bowl.

One thing I loved about Russillo and Van Pelt and why it worked, you don't have to disagree with your co-host just to make for interesting radio. If Bob believed everything he said, then so be it, but don't try to "counter-balance" or play devils advocate just for the sake of doing it. That makes your opinions in-valid to me.

Also great point on the ads. Really pissed me off seeing our players "name that tune" while they were getting their asses drug up and down the field. I'm probably being a bit unreasonable but damn it bothered me.

The ads do nothing but piss me off when we are getting our *** handed to us. Always have. No one wants to pick the cowbell dog down 21-0.

I said the same thing to my group. Who gives a rat's *** if someone doesn't know who Taylor Swift is while the team is playing like sweaty donkey balls. Lots of folks around us seem to like those advertisements though. Makes me want to scream.

This was the one time all season I got the cowbell dog right. It was a bright spot in the game for me, thank you very much.

Seriously though, they need to have a "we're winning" setlist and a "we're losing" setlist, and they can have the same sponsors, but you need to be able to dial it back from time to time.
