I thought the "Dogs" were his friends? Ha! I do not keep up with what is going on anymore anyway.

1-800-TheDogs are a RMS show sponsor. Does sponsor = friend? ???
I didn't think Ambulance Chasers had friends..

If you were on a boat and a wife-beating dj and an ambulance chasing lawyer both fell overboard whom would you save first?

Neither - cause they might testify that I pushed them over!
 
Redbull....really? You've seen it? You're in on it, because unless you are, you need to "wake up" and see that you DON'T know the whole story. This is exaclty what I was talking about. Some people on here are so blind with hatred for Russ Martin that they can't look at both sides. Unless you are someone on the inside of this investigation, or unless you are the victim, or unless you are Russ Martin himself, you don't KNOW that the DA has all the evidence that he needs to convict.
 
I repeat, here...we...go...again. First this was all a bit and oh wait, we do not have all the evidence! It seems people want to think he is innocent too without seeing all the evidence because as you know, that is is all a schtick. ::) ::) ::) ::)
 
if he's convicted, pleas, or shows and admission of guilt I'll stop listening...until then I'm still onboard, I'm not sure why thats such quandry to all of you people that dont like the RMS...it must be miserable to be so eat up with venom and hate...oh that reminds me its 3:12 time to tune in...cheers ;D

Trenholm, my advice in this case is not to bait people, as you'll enter a serious world of hurt....As we all know Russ has both friends and enemies, more of the latter than previous, which alot of is his own doing. If he was a coward and did assult his "lady friend", then he deserves jailtime and fines just like anyone else in a case of this nature. If he is innocent, then the evidence will reflect that and he will be cleared.
 
Just to clear some things up...I'm not Trey...just someone with a different point of view than those that are angry with Russ.

Angry with Russ? :mad: No, I'm not angry with Russ. I'm sick to death of Russ....his lame potty humor, repeating bits into infinium, the incessant cackling of his minions, the never ending band issues, and his overwhelming obsession with his health.

Face it, Russ needs time with a qualified therapist and a good chemical dependency program. He tries to be the "common" man but he is so far removed from the normal everyday life of the people in his listening area. Kinda hard to do when you live in a house with more bathrooms than you can visit in one day. ::)

Maybe he should try a trip back to his roots? I hear "The Grove" ain't what it used to be. Bet the Batmobile would be up on cement blocks in five minutes. :eek:

What I don't understand is, if your "sick to death" of Russ, change the station, play a cd or an ipod or turn the freakin radio off. Did I miss the part where people were forced to listen?

I find it ironic and amusing that people like to moan and whine about the content of the show and voice their disgust. Simple solution for you, DON'T LISTEN!!!!
How hard is that???

I could name 100's, LITERALLY 100's of avenues of entertainment be it talk or music or tv or movies that I do not like or even "hate".

So I just don't watch or listen. Simple.

If you don't like pizza, they why would you order it, eat it, then whine about how awful it is???? Save yourself and others the time and order a humburger.

Exactly! The man found his niche, and anyone complaining is probably more mad about the fact that they didn't think of it first. (and here come the firestorm of people saying "no I'm not mad") Let it go people. He's been successful. The fact that some of you have listened enough to hate him, shows that he works on both levels. He gets the people that don't like him to listen so that they can say that they hate him, as well as those that are entertained.
And just to clear it up, because apparently it's eating at many of you, No...not Clo....and to go ahead and say it now, not O'Malley, not Alfie, not Big Eddie, not Chuck...not anyone associated with Russ Martin or RMS or CBS radio. Just someone that is open minded enough to look at all angles.
Oh, and WheredidMergeGo, to answer your question why they still listen? Because they don't have color TV in their moms' basement yet, and they're already tired of listening to Pugs and Kelly.

I have turned RMS off. However, that doesn't void my right to an opinion on the man and his show. I'll allow you yours, please allow me mine.

That is where you are wrong, sir-his is North Texas-very few houses have basements to occupy. Signed,
Literal Lump

I stopped listening to Russ and I still think he sucks. Lookie there-you CAN have it both ways. I'll be darned. You were wrong, QED.
 
I think I can sum it up simply: Dallas-Ft. Worth is the 5th largest TV/radio market in the nation, but people here dont strive for better product, they prefer the same old garbage (Right-Wing Radio, CHR/Urban/Mexican/Country Clones, White Trash Humor), hence why RMS does well in this market. Its like comfort food for the idiot crowd.

But it makes your opinion invalid since you dont listen to Russ anymore and makes you more of a whiner

Oh really?? My opinion is invalid because I don't listen to RMS everyday. ::) ::) ::) I didn't realize that you were the posting police and set up the rules as to the definition of current/former listeners and their rights to an opinion. Duly noted, thank you!

News flash for you......RMS bits today are the same as they were yesterday, same as they were 1 year ago and as they were 5 years ago. The exact words might change everyday but the content is still the same.

it does?
KLLI had a 1.5 in the last trend 12+, and a lousy 2.0 25-54.

They BARELY make the top 20 25-54, and I think they sit at #10 Men 18+.

Maybe Russ's show is doing better than the station as a whole, but I think you need to work on your tenses.

They DID well. Not any longer....
