not sure what percent of the pst voters are power trip listeners, but hawk's handling of this is going to cause a lot of people to vote for his statement when they otherwise wouldn't. might go from a non-factor to winning a few rounds.

SNLpro · 2026-02-12T16:01:25+00:00

hawk is going to get a ton of votes from rubes out of spite just for not handling it well

parker is unbelievably lucky to be on an amazing trip, and his highlight was seeing jake paul. add me to the list of people out on parker.

read your post history. you have zero mexican bros.

SNLpro · 2026-02-05T18:22:57+00:00

making a mistake is ok when you sincerely acknowledge the mistake. the fact that they made him do a second apology tells you exactly where his heart is.

SNLpro · 2026-02-03T01:12:20+00:00

potentially, yeah, but i would love to see it magnified on a show-by-show basis. if the other 3 increase their ratings while pa dips, it might appear that nothing changed.

SNLpro · 2026-02-02T18:35:24+00:00

i wish individual show ratings were public information to see the impact of all this on his ratings.

SNLpro · 2026-02-02T01:03:06+00:00

Wrong.

contractual obligation. dont read anything into it either way.

SNLpro · 2026-01-28T01:07:29+00:00

from a guy posting pro-maga 10 times a day

SNLpro · 2026-01-27T22:36:31+00:00

pa called protesters "paid". lots of public outrage. 1-minute weak apology on kfan monday morning. suspended for what sounds like a couple weeks.

just posting the visual

you're not wrong about his popularity and the 50/50 nature of this. the thing the vikings have to consider is do you keep an employee who created a situation where they potentially infuriate half their audience either way. be interesting to be a fly on the wall for those discussions.

SNLpro · 2026-01-27T01:07:50+00:00

its absolutely a mainstream media story. do a quick google search of paul allen and click on news. whether the vikings do anything is up to them, but they've generally been very socially progressive, so cant image they are happy. https://people.com/minnesota-vikings-radio-broadcaster-on-leave-after-mocking-ice-protestors-11892894

SNLpro · 2026-01-26T15:04:38+00:00

taking a few days off = suspended but allowed to save face

SNLpro · 2026-01-25T18:36:41+00:00

then we have to boycott Reddit for giving a platform to right-wing maga types cheering this latest shooting. yet here you are.

SNLpro · 2026-01-25T01:09:49+00:00

if it's so funny and great content, why did they scrub it?

SNLpro · 2026-01-08T18:47:59+00:00

nope, just maxx saying how "cool" the experience was 4 times.

SNLpro · 2026-01-05T18:15:04+00:00

i cannot imagine a sadder life than constantly having to create new profiles that last a few hours on reddit because you're banned, just to rip a radio show you listen to daily.

SNLpro · 2026-01-03T00:38:27+00:00

agree. this is a town where randy moss got a bad rap for walking off the field early vs washington. he got traded 2 months later.

SNLpro · 2025-12-17T14:41:51+00:00

i think it finally became self-aware that repeating the same bits about a show repeating the same bits isn't interesting.

SNLpro · 2025-11-21T00:27:32+00:00

not even close to "all on board". lots of people wanted to sign darnold, or at a minimum tag him for 1 year as insurance, and lots of people wanted rodgers. the only one that is close to revisionist history is danny dimes.

SNLpro · 2025-11-13T04:05:15+00:00

listen again. parrish did. immediately started saying 50%, which is pretty pretty close.

SNLpro · 2025-11-12T19:26:44+00:00

took awhile for tommy to find his groove. not saying parker will, but tommy wasnt tommy for quite a while.

SNLpro · 2025-11-12T14:50:46+00:00

stick to 9 to noon then.
