Talking Sports Live with Rob Jay

[MaroonNation]

every Tuesday evening, starting at 6:00 PM, ESPN 105.9FM, is the God-send for Lakeland Drive traffic. Rob is the funniest guy in the state of Mississippi when it comes to TV/Radio. He has single-handedly held the sole position at JSU as SID and is also the sports anchor for WLBT. He always has his hands in something around the state, and for all intents and purposes, seems to be a well liked and respected individual. Y’all should listen to his show sometime. My sides are usually hurting from laughing on the drive home.
Before ESPN and the SECNetwork and stadium expansions and $5 million dollar coach’s salaries I grew up getting my Mississippi State updates from Rob on Sports Journal every Sunday night at 10:15. He has done more for HS athletics in central Mississippi as anyone else. Would love to see him finally get a great job at a university that appreciates his services cause there’s not a harder working dude in sports journalism, in the state of Mississippi, than Rob Jay. Maybe all you Sports Talk wannabes out there will get off your lazy asses and stop punching your time cards by recycling other fat lazy stupid-*** sports talk wannabe’s puke and serving it as your own puke and do your damn job by reporting on sports!

The burning question that must be asked. Is this show Barrett Sallee free?

I listened today and agree, so funny. Rob's about as good as it gets. Awesome dude too.

Cover your own board.

You and Jackson have a good thing going as well. You are a good representative for your school as most all bears in the media are ********, douchbags, or tote their schools water too much. You at least try to hide it or limit your backhanded compliments. Jackson is a good ying to your yang, but y'all are good together. That 5:00 show tho.....

 

[Chris Brooks.sixpack]

Appreciate it. I like Jackson. Wanna see him do well. I don't know if I hide it as much as I generally don't care as much as others, but I'll get sucked into fandom on occasion like anyone else. Jake is an awesome dude though. Y'all gotta cut him some slack.

I used to LOVE watching Sports Journal on Sunday's when I was in high school. ESPECIALLY after a big MSU win. I liked how he had the SWAC teams featured as well. He made it look like the coolest college football league ever. I remember they had the Steve McNair Hand Him the Heisman video and I used to love watching the Air McNair highlights when he was at Alcorn. And then they had the intro where the guy from Valley was trying to catch a deep pass in practice and he was leveled by a train boxcar.

17 yes it is Beirut Sally free. And Jake Wimberly has become just as insufferable a ***** as Sally is to listen to. How in the hell can that Affliction-wearing alpha-male wannabe even suggest that Tennessee is a better job right now that State boggles that mind. The 17’ing spit and bailing string can come off all the rape allegations they have been covering up in Knoxville any second and that place is Baylor 2.0 over night. No coach in his right 17’ing mind would want to walk into that ******** right now FROM a good paying, safe and steady job like Mullen has. And Chris, you know I’ve always been a fan of your show and I’ve defended you on here when people try to say you are a homer. You are far from it BUT after 3-Days of listening to “Mullen to...” **** on your show at lunch has run its course and you might want to move onto something else tomorrow.

 

[MaroonNation]

I never got tired of watching the Valley(or maybe It was an Alcorn) player catch that pass in the end zone then slam into the side of that dumpster. Sports Journal was pre-internet. If State got into the Top 25 that week that was usually the first place you saw it as the ranking were always posted after the Sunday edition of the paper went to print.

Y'all seem to have a blast during the show and it's best when y'all bounce things off each other and let the show develop on its own. I legitimately laugh at the content at times during my 30 min lunchtime commute. Probably right on Jake...

Growing up just south of Jackson with no Cable or directv until about age 12, Rob Jay and Chuck Stinson were all I knew as sports reporters. Rob Jay was always hilarious to me and my father as we watched him deliver the sports highlights at 10pm. Glad to hear he is doing well. I’ll have to listen to his show.

You need to go to ESPN 105.9 the zone’s website and click on shows, scroll down till you find Talking Sports Live with Rob Jay, click on archives and listen to last nights show. Dude was on a roll for the 1st 35-40 minutes of the show. And he has this weekly caller named PrimeTime, who is the SWAC version of a Bama fan, who sends in trivia questions to the show strictly about JSU, and that is one of the funniest part of the show. PrimeTime May have, at best, a 4th grade education and spells everything phonetically. Rob wears his *** out. It’s the funniest free entertainment you can get in Mississippi.

I did. Go Choctaws. Graduated in ' 00, spent 3 years as a GA coaching men's basketball, then SID for 7-8 years. Great place. Love it.
