Before finebaum went national, JOX's lineup would rank like

I haven't listened to it in years. It was always unbearable to listen to though.


It's on the air because those 3 guys have so many local connections they're able to bring in tons of ad revenue.

Opening Drive is terrible.

As the poster mentioned above, it's only on because of ad revenue. They bring absolutely zero content.

Round table is only good thing to listen to until Freddie Coleman and Farrell come on via national syndication

Birmingham sports radio is so bad, it made Finebaum worth listening to.

The callers are horrible. I'm pretty sure Al and Jay have never prepared for the show judging by the inaccurate and uninformed shite that they say.

I liked the show with Matt and Scott better. The morning drive is not very good, to be honest.

It can't be any worse than "The Mid-day Break: Talkin' Ball" on ESPN radio in Huntsville. Drew DeArmond will make your ears bleed with unpreparedness.

Honestly, the only morning sports talk I will listen to is Bill King's show based in Nashville. I stream it. He knows what he's talking about.
