That's not what I find disrespectful.
This isn't directed to illmatic because what he said was fine and probably well intended, but it gets tiring being criticized for something everyone else in the industry does to a higher extent than us. Theres a massive double standard for guys working for more established outlets compared to guys who habe built something from scratch. The person who's said "Dame can't throw lobs" has outright called people "morons", "flat-earthers", and "neanderthals" for their opinions. But if I make fun of his opinion without insulting him its a problem. That's how it's gone for years.
So I come back here and everyone collectively nitpicks everything we do and tries to tell us how to be successful, and it gets to the point where it feels like some people think they know better than us.
Example:
You're basically telling us to revamp our entire show. We know what were doing. Most radio shows are 3 hours. You can easily scrub our stream to certain parts and we have graphics that make it easy to find certain sections. And it's worked. I'm tired of coming back here and getting the feeling that people think we don't know what were doing with this and then I'm being called out and criticized by someone for things that is normal across sports talk and told to completely revamp my successful product when I've made it as easy as I possibly for people with limited time... This stuff is why I hadn't been here in a while, told Eric that he shouldn't even bother posting in this thread anymore, and it's why I asked
@SlyPokerDog to deactivate my account. You got people like Wizenheimer who still talks shit about a video I posted years ago. John Lukrofka wouldn't take kindly to this type of criticism either (and hasnt), even though he wants though he wants to act like he does. But I don't know why he's even inserted himself in this conversation in the first place because I don't think that dude wants to see us succeed and I don't think his intentions aren't good.
I ask people I trust for feedback on things we don't do well and things that we can improve on all the time. It's not about thinking we're "too good" or not being willing to acknowledge or focus on any weaknesses.
