Saying something stupid and being stupid are two different things.
You do understand this isn't their first radio show together right?
It's not like the alternative is any better. Rizzo has no clue about basketball. He seems to know what he's talking about with baseball (but I really don't watch, so he might be just as clueless). He has better football knowledge then basketball, but I don't think it's by a large margin. At least he actually does watch the games when it comes to the Browns.
His co host is also awful. Cherry constantly defends the player and always says at the same time this and that.
I don't think majority of people here understand how hard it is to talk for 3-4 hours, 5 days a week and not understand you're going to say something stupid. All while keeping people entertained.

The thing I dislike about Hammer is he runs a Buckeyes radio station yet takes every chance to rip on Ohio State, up to the point where it's just to make people mad.
Ick.I know he isn't local and I know he's polarizing but damn it do I love Cowherd.
Dude is easily my favorite sports radio personality
Ick.
Guy used to refer to Mo Williams as "that point guard they have." Just not nearly knowledgable.
Point is, he didn't know the name of the second best player on the best team (record wise) in the NBA.What's so wrong with that? Mo was just a decent player, he was gifted his lone All-Star appearance because the Cavs went into the All-Star break at an insane 40-11 in 2009. He was a good shooter, but his handle and vision were poor by league standards for the position, in addition to being undersized for the position.
I just always remember him as a guy that always faltered in the playoffs. Look at the drop in his per-36 numbers from what he did in the regular season compared to what he did in the playoffs:
08'-09' Regular Season: 18.3 points on 47/44/91 splits, 4.2 assists, 3.5 rebounds, .9 steals, 2.3 turnovers
08'-09' Playoffs: 15.2 points on 41/37/77 splits, 3.9 assists, 3.0 rebounds, .7 steals, 2.0 turnovers
'09-'10 Regular Season: 16.7 points on 44/43/89 splits, 5.6 assists, 3.1 rebounds, 1.1 steals, 2.6 turnoversThe worst was when he got abused in the playoffs in 2010 by Rajon Rondo though. Rondo averaged a 14/10/4 that season, but when guarded primarily by Mo Williams over the course of six games he managed to explode for a back breaking 21/12/6. Considering how badly LeBron outplayed Pierce that series I've yet to forgive Mo or Jamison for being stinking piles of shit.
'09-'10 Playoffs: 13.8 points on 41/33/80 splits, 5.2 assists, 3.0 rebounds, .5 steals, 2.0 turnovers
Good ole Johnny should have got some work in today. Hoyer was putrid.
Could not have said this better myself. Hammer goes out of his way to dump on the Buckeyes every chance he gets, 2011 was probably the best year of his life. I'll always laugh about how stubborn he was that Urban Meyer would never come to Ohio State, what a fucking assclown.
