OK now that makes perfect sense...
not, bunch of a**holes, thats almost as offensive as the comments themselves, in a “stripping away freedom of speech” kind of way. Talking about cycling, cyclists, bike-riding of any sort or kind is not going to be controversial if people don’t act foolishly. What the hell has this world come to?
These guys, some years ago, had their own cycling related issue...
Some shock jock did a similar stunt to Kornheiser’s. Can’t recall all the details – I just remember hearing something about a game the guy created on air – assigned points for all the cyclists run into ditches and such…
Found this from a google search but not sure it is the exact issue that I remembered. Unfortunately, there seems to be too many of these types of situations…
I think Dashiell Bennett just wants a taste of what TK got yesterday.
I think it’s made up bullshit on Bennett’s part, he just wants a bunch of e-mails coming from this: “amirite?”.

I was happy to discover
that after looking up what Clear Channel is, I have apparently had my own ban on them for some time. As soon as I hit “post” on this post I will start a new ban on not talking about clear channel. Take that you big media conglomerate.
The day I hear Glenn Beck on Sporza will be the saddest day of my life.
this is a joke, no?
