Talking Sports

Former NFL player
Kevin Kiley and brash comedian Chuck Booms bring a history and jock/shock vibe with Kiley & Booms. (6-10 a.m.)

Talking Heads hosts Jeff Phelps and Andy Baskin are crammed with knowledge and really listen to callers. A great cerebral workout for the hardcore fan. (10 a.m.-2 p.m.)

Gravely voiced New Yorker Adam "The Bull" Gerstenhaber and fresh-faced Buckeye football alum Dustin Fox show off their winning chemistry on Bull & Fox. (2-7 p.m.)

Fiery, evening host Ken Carman comes off as a mad as hell Cleveland sports fan who's not going to take it anymore.
(7 p.m.-midnight)

Mike & Mike in the Morning's Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg are syndicated from Connecticut but deliver ESPN's signature depth.
(6-9 a.m.)

Cleveland sports homer Tony Rizzo speaks (or screams) what we feel
on The Really Big Show. His Denver-born producer Aaron Goldhammer is the blunt, contrarian foil.
(9 a.m-1 p.m.)

Both experienced radio veterans, Afternoon R&R's Michael Reghi and Kenny Roda are the sports-talk equivalent of classic rock: A familiar, fun listen on the drive home. (3-6 p.m.)

Xs and Os with the Pros' LeCharles Bentley and Je'Rod Cherry break down football with humor and insight. The former NFL players tackle other sports but shine with their own. (7-9 p.m.)

Mike & Mike in the Morning's good-natured, brotherly banter has
us hooked.

The Really Big Show is loud and obnoxious. But like that drunk heckler at the game, it's hard to turn away from it.

Bull & Fox is fresh and exciting, plus Fox did help the Buckeyes to a national championship in 2002.

Even. Bentley and Cherry own football talk, but Carman's sour discourse tastes like something this town will eat up.
