For those in the Des Moines area....what do you think of the local sports talk radio shows? Just curious on the Hawkeye point of view.

1460 AM's
- Morning Rush (Travis and Heather) - Travis just ruins it. Heather was born a Hawk and graduated as a Cyclone, but I think she's ok. Travis is an idiot and just ruins it.
- Afternoon Sports Fanatics (Peterson and Williams) - one Hawkeye and one Cyclone. I think they are pretty good and provide a mix of Cyclone and Hawkeye banter.

1700 AM - afternoon Marty/Miller - total joke. I can't stand them. Marty talks out of his ass and very little to back himself up.
 
Don't get to listen to as much as I used to. I do think the afternoon shows lean Cyclone. Love Murph and Andy but their lovefest with Hoiberg gets pretty tiresome, otherwise I think they're pretty even.

I don't hate C.Williams, but he is just overpowering on his show so Peterson doesn't really get to say much so by default, it's a Cyclone show, at least to me.

Haven't listened to the other two, although from their previous positions I think Heather is weak and Travis just isn't very smart.
 
I've heard all of them before, but not necessarily together in their current arrangements. I can't see how any of those crews would be listenable (is that a word?).

Edit - I actually like listening to Ken Miller, I just can't hardly stand listening to Marty. Far too many times in the past that he seems to take a contrary opinion just to be contrary, not because he believes what he's saying.

Does anyone like Marty? The fact he has been a part of the sports talk scene in Iowa as long as he has doesn't speak well for us.
