This is the place to let your sports passions fly Welcome back to J&R on Houston's sports leader sports radio 610 Katie London's a pro But that's not really what we're looking for. We're really just looking for immaturity and breasts Maybe she has both of those, but we don't see her. Why are we getting Laura back on the horn? I don't know. She promised she was gonna come in at not a metaphor on the horn. I don't know. She promised she was going to come in at 3 and dinner. That's not a metaphor. She's not in tomorrow either. What? Really? She's not? But she's in her office but won't have time for us. Is what you're saying. This hurts the show. This hurts me personally.

So, CBS Sports is launching a sports radio network. Yes, it is. And they're putting together their daily lineup. It's awesome. And Doug Gottlieb is going to be one of their main guys. It's one of the reasons that our sister station 650 AM is about to become the fifth sports station in this market. I don't think it's a big reason. I think it is the reason. I don't think that was really a debate. I don't think they walked into the psychic and the doc

and said, Hey guys, here's the deal. We're going to let you know that we're giving you the option to keep it as 650 or our boss in New York's just going to flip it to all sports. I don't think that was a conversation. You are the master of the obvious sports. I don't think that was a conversation that was had. You are the master of the obvious. Yes, I really don't think that was the case. But they're like, 13 people listened to The Psychic and The Doc, bro. Well, sorry, Gerald McCraney.

Your show's now gonna not exist. It sucks to be you, but it doesn't exist. If you saw that guy, that's such a funny statement. Yeah, that guy. If you ever saw this guy, you'd be like, holy cow. But now on the show, we have to run these CBS Sports Minutes or what are they called? Are they just CBS Sports Minute where it's a commentary? CBS Sports Radio Network Update.

Alright, there you go. Live radio here. If Laura were here, this wouldn't happen. No, you're right. They shut down my computer. Are we not supposed to talk about this? They shut down the computer? Big brother? Yes! So you're telling me that the computer shut down?

You will not mock your employer. But with that said, we did record the bed that they play underneath it. So I think I could do these updates for them. They're not updates. They're opinion pieces. They're commentary. I think I could do that. Well, anybody could do that.

I mean, everybody's got one, right? An opinion and you know what else. So here's what we're going to do, Rich. How about you and I will do like a little opinion piece on something and then you fire off the bed and then afterwards hit the out which is that you know 1987 jingle they play at the end of it okay ready all right fire off the bed hey everybody it's Josh Inneson Rich Lord and you know something bringing the kids back to school rich can be a really tough time it can I agree and especially if you're talking about college kids, because many of them are not of age yet to drink, yet I favor open bars at all college sporting events.

CBS Sports Ready Go! Alright, there we go. See? There you go. We could be running these at the top of all... Like... Is your computer still rebooting? It sure is!

Wow, look at that! Big Brother got us! So you're saying there's a governor on your computer? I don't know what it is, but that was really weird. It's like one of those gas-powered golf carts. If you try to go too fast, it kills the engine. Really, all we have to do... Not kills it, but you know. But if you try to go too fast it kills the engine. Really all it kills it but you know we just but if you're going to lock out one of those by lock out I mean when you end it and they hit that that that liner that jingle there at the end of it. Oh it's Judy Hart. Whenever they play that like you can just say anything but make sure it tails out as you go in and you can get away with it. It's like it's like yeah it's in

Seattle they killed themselves. Oh, let me tell you, those Aggies and that billboard in Gainesville, they just look like dopes. You just got to laugh into it, you know? That's, that's an old FM radio trick is to laugh into the jungle. Did Doug Gottlieb do that? What? did he laugh into the jingle no never no did he really talk about taking his kids on vacation is that what you said that's what I heard I think the last commentary was about going to work well then he said I don't want your phone calls about your fantasy football yeah because I'm a

Callan call Colin Cowherd wannabes I gotta do Colin shtick. Yeah, that's what I gotta do. Well you can, you know, fire off the... Hey, this is Doug Gottlieb. I'm a Colin Cowherd clone. I don't think that's true. He used to be on ESPN. He filled in for Colin a lot because I'm a big... I like Colin Cowhert.

I mean, he does his whole shtick. It's the realistic look at sports and all that stuff. But good for him. They paid him a lot of money, I guess, to come over to CBS. Bless his heart. Bless him. I mean, he's going to be on their CBS basketball cover today. I think he's a good basketball analyst.

But Big Brother, we can't even go to commercial. The computer's not on, right? This is commercial free radio. Right. Wow. Now we're back on. We're, we're, we're, let's see. You want to see if it works real quick?

Yeah, fire it off. This is what it actually sounded like. The CBS Sports Update. I'm Doug Gottlieb with the CBS Sports Minute. As you head into work today and summer is now behind you, let me be the bad guy and let you know that there are things that no one except you cares about. Oh really? So save me your slideshow about your unbelievable summer vacation. Chances are it's a place

I cannot afford or simply don't want to go. Don't share with me pictures of you and your kids and the wacky things you all did together on a family road trip. I've been on family road trips. They're miserable. Pictures cannot deceive me. And whenever you do, please do not involve me in talks about your fantasy football. He just sounds like a jerk. I got a couple of teams in the league myself. But unless you can search your soul for a single solitary reason

that I should give a second thought about your thoughts about your PPR. This is it. You stole in the seventh round will help you take home the cash. Save it and I will save you from ruining a friendship. CBS! Oh boy. I'm gonna tell you about everything that... I gotta admit, I wasn't listening when I played.

And now that I've heard it, I'm horrified. Program directors do need to contact the people at the top and say, listen, if we're gonna use a minute of our time every hour on the highest rated sports show in the city it's the first week of the freaking NFL season we just had our first week in a college football and that's your sports minute? I'm Doug Gottlieb and I hate everything you like CBS! Unless he's been instructed to have that be the content in his sports minute. Maybe, you know? Have the liner, have the jingle ready, okay?

Maybe there are consultants at work. As a former boss once told me, consultants are good for one thing, taking the watch off your wrist and telling you what time it is. Hi, I'm Doug Gottlieb. I'm better than you and everything you like to do sucks. Wow. Like someone's got to do something. Here we go.

Big game, big home game for Arkansas this week. You know what they say, if you get married in Arkansas and divorced in Texas, you may still be brother and sister. CBS Sports Ready Now! I mean people call and like they'll send us Twitter messages and they'll be like I'll listen to a sports station to hear about sports. Well the guy that's going to be one of their main characters on the CBS Sports station hates life evidently. Clearly. So listen to him. Hi, I'm Doug Gottlieb. And if you enjoy something, I'll probably knock it and then cut myself. I want you to get up right now, get over to the window, open the window, and scream, I'm mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore!

I think we should end every promo we do with one of those. Wow. Oh my god. I mean someone's gotta tell him. Geez. I mean that was. It was bad. I mean at least be interesting it was dry.

Yeah it was just, hi I'm Doug Gottlieb and. Can you preview the one that's coming up at five o'clock? Is it the same thing? Yes. Oh it's gotta be different. No no it's not the same thing. It's different every hour. I don't think we run one this coming hour. Well no it's gotta be different. No, no, it's not the same thing. It's different every hour. I don't think we run one this coming hour for whatever reason. Well, no,

there's one coming up. I thought there was one every hour. No? Well, for whatever reason, in the four o'clock hour we don't run one. If it's Doug Gottlieb, go find the Feinstein one from Mad Radio. It was better. You know what he sounds like? He's like Debbie Downford. Waaah, waaah. It's like, you know what, I really like Burger King. Well, you know, I'm Doug Gottlieb and trans fat's gonna kill ya. That's right. And what they don't tell you is the salt water in the Mississippi's gonna kill all the aquatic lye. in the Mississippi's gonna kill all the aquatic lies. We have a built-in excuse by the way for being six minutes late your computer

broke down. We had no we couldn't play any spots. They tried to stop us from doing this segment. And we did it anyway. They can't stop us. Screw you, corporate! Okay, truth be told, they probably could stop us. Truth be told, tomorrow's J&R will actually be called Mad Radio, is what you don't know. Yes, alright. Just have that handy. Anytime one of us says something that you think requires that, just fire away.

Alright, it's JNR, 713-572-4610. If you'd like to be overly depressed and play along in our game, 713-572-4610. All you have to do is have something really negative and down about the world and we'll hit the jingle for you. It's JNR. Stay there.
