This is a fan forum. You don't need to be an ass kissing sycophant to post here, but cut the negative bullshit and mult a thons of hate.

If you aren't a fan get the fuck out.

If you are, try to keep in mind that we are getting honest raw reactions from our favorite show and shitting on them when they are down, isn't very fan like.

Christ I sound like someone's fucking mom here...

preach on sister i couldnt belive some of the shit i was reading over here jesus what a bunch of uninformed bullshit. they all say they used to love the show but now not so much. well no shit the fucking lawyer is messing with them everyday. its hard to do a show when the rules change everyday. the show is still good still fun but when you cant do the elements that make the the show more entertaining and fun then its hard. the crew are frustrated that some asshat that knows casino and hotels is telling them how to do radio. they know they can do better but the lawyer wont allow them to.

Yea what they said.

But, but, but...Bubba is screwing over the fans! He doesn't care about us! WAAAAHHHH!
:bigcry: :bigcry: :bigcry:

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Bunch of whiny bitches in here lately. I wonder why Bubba would think it's a mistake renewing his contract with all the "support" he's getting. :jj:

I agree. Has anyone else found it a bit strange that Howard hasn't really commented on this. He may be doing something to help behind the scenes but it doesn't look like it. I know he isn't in charge but he does have a hell of a lot of pull.

The FANS are just calling it how they HEAR it. When the majority of fans are dissatisfied with the state of the show, there must something behind it. The FANS are keeping BUBBA and company honest and not letting them rest on past performances. I don't wanna hear about the suits holding him down. Bubba knew what he was getting into when he signed and bottom line he is acting like a baby at the expense of the SIRIUS listeners. We have a right to be PISSED and it is not about being haters its about wanting the very best from the show we were once excited about.

How about YOU speak for YOURSELF, not the FANS.

I just see being a fan as being supportive, not tearing people down if they are having a tough time. I am not going to expect someone to entertain me because I demand it, I would prefer they do it because they wanted to. I can't see someone wanting to do shit for me if I am calling them names and being a douche.

Should a fan blindly look the other way when a product they know and love is changing? I think its worth the conversation.

Constructive criticism should be acceptable here, should it not? As long as you support your argument in a logical way without namecalling, I see nothing wrong with that.

everyone relax... look at the kitten, look at the silly kitten :dancin:

Neither do I.

That is not what is going on.
OneEyedPete
Well excuse me Wiz. You mention that a fan is supportive. I would agree and would submit that when Bubba was trying to renegotiate his deal and was having issues the FANS were very supportive of Bubba. Bubba claimed that the main reason why he re-signed with SIRIUS was because he didn't want to let down the fans. He is letting me down and allegedly many others. So waaaahhhh to me!!!!
When it comes to their motivation to entertain it is always better for them to want to do it, but when they don't produce it would be remiss of me as a fan not to call bullshit. Wiz you might be too close to the situation. Step back and give it an honest evaluation.

Ok that is better, you saying you feel let down makes sense. It is personal, about you and doesn't attack anyone.

And you are probably right, I might be too close to the situation. But I do try and give it an honest evaluation because I know people will roll their eyes here and call me on it.

I wish more people could express it without getting just rude hostile and shitty. All that is seen is the attitude and negativity, not the honest opinion.
OneEyedPete
I agree that complaining just for the sake of it is monotonous and mind numbing but yesterday was a wake up call. Regardless of whose fault it is the show has been sub par and someone needs to address it.
Heatherwiz
I think yesterday's show created a lot of tension and drama and I was listening to every minute to hear what would happen next. I fast forwarded threw the songs. I will never complain about the show sharing so much with us and letting it all hang out. I just hang in there for the best parts.
OneEyedPete
In a way it was great radio but it set the precedent for demise of the show on Sirius. That is what I am concerned about.

I agree I don't know why there is a different set of rules for howard then there is for bubba. I know the guys have their hands tied and being in that kinda situation really sucks. I can't believe that corporate dumped his rant yesterday. I have been listening since his first day on sirius and they have never done anything like that before. I can't believe that he didn't just walk off the show yesterday. He is a better man than me i would walked. Keep up the good work guys and if you end up leaving I know my nights are going to suck but i wish you the best.

You don't?

I'm pretty much checked out on the show since they have started doubling up though so I can't really speak to whats going on. It's just not the same product it was.
madhi19
Now that the whole fucking mess is in the open maybe somebody like Howard would step up and demand that they would either release Bubba from is contract or leave the fucking show alone for Bubba to run. Maybe it time that some peoples in management to be fired. For some peoples Bubba is a nice scapegoat for every goddamn problem Sirius got and they make him pay. It make some other peoples forget who sign fucking Martha for a shitload of wasted money.

Exactly. Bubba going off on people is infinitely better than some random stripper/porn whore in the studio. Bubba speaks his mind and that's what makes the show great. If Bubba didn't talk about it then people would complain about him holding back.

"Bubba going off on people is infinitely better than some random stripper/porn whore in the studio."


I can agree with that statement for sure. But please subtract out all the music and bits he kept playing yesterday.

This is my beef as well. Unfortunately, I can't get the morning show and his Sirius gig is all I got, but it seems as though that doesn't matter at this point.

Yesterday was a special case, and i'm willing to cut him as much slack as he needs. I could do without the strippers too. Personally, I love it when they flip on CNN and comment on whatever the breaking news is. It's spontaneous, which is when I think they're at their best.

You know there is no pleaseing everyone. and with the way sirius is treating bubba there is no pleaseing him he has an idea of how he want to run his show but he is always stoped from doing it. i mean damm isn't that why we pay for radio so that we can hear what they really want to do. sirius is becoming the fcc of sateilite radio for bubba don't do this don't do that i mean if you don't want to hear the segment then there are a few other channels you can turn to. so i do not blame bubba hear. so go bubba sell your shit and fuck sirius and the suits. i think bubba should loop www.btls.com for the whole show since the suits don't stop him from doing that.

I actually thought it was funny what they did yesterday. It is a good way to piss off the higher ups. I know it sucks for the fans cuz it is at our expense, but that is their way of doing things. I love the tension.
Why,becauseICan
In what way are the rules different for Howard than they are for Bubba?
satyr
I can't even respond to this thread my head might explode.. :blowup:
jeepguy05
Howard went through the same shit with Pig Vomit back in the day --this is gonna come to a bad end for Sirius listeners--Bubba is going to get himself canned or find a way out of his contract. I could care less about "bits" & show whores--I'd rather hear the guys bullshitting with the tv on anyday.
