Bammers made him popular.
He’d be a nobody without them.

So true.
I don't begrudge the guy for making a living, but his product really is something to be less proud of enjoying. The ONLY goodness I ever heard when I frequented his show were the segments with the likes of Barbara Dooley / Gene Stallings / etc. I happened to tune in on my way home from work and at least weekly I would get those segments.
Past that, if it's unchanged since then, it really is the Jerry Springer of sports radio.

He was just a Birmingham radio guy who let Bama and Auburn fans call in and troll each other on air. We have been calling it "Jerry Springer radio" since the 90's. It was just for laughs at work and we could make fun of the characters calling in. I never thought it would expand outside of the state, but he went regional. Then other fans were calling in and when he went national on cable radio,even more fans started calling in, and then espn picked him up for SECN. My point is that it was about easing a boring work day, but he was not meant to be taken seriously.
