Bob Kemp says Cards season ticket holders are suckers

[ANDY440]

Anyone else hear him say that yesterday? I guess his schtick is to incourage the Cardinal bashers to call in. I'd be willing to bet a lot of the haters he gets to call are just pissed about how much they now have to pay for scalper tickets for Cowboy / Bears /Steeler tickets

To everyone that calls in, give me your seats.

And he would blast them for not supporting the team if the stayed home.

 

[Derm]

His problem is that you and his mother are the only one's listening to his show.

btw; they now sound like they're broadcasting using tin cans and a string

 

[D-Dogg]

Bob Kemp is a hack. He's not even good at being a hack.

 

[Shane]

Were all suckers. proven year in and year out!. But we love it. Its not as though hes lying.

 

[RedForeman]

Someone actually listens to him in his new and improved time-slot?

 

[Rivercard]

"Suckers" implies we don't know what we are getting into. We may gluttons for punishment but we are not suckers.

You say tomato I say tamaaaato. Every year we all believe we have a chance to win. We think we have turned the "corner" So in a sense we really dont know what we are geting into. Thus we are being sucked into the hype. WERE SUCKERS! I dont mind being one. But we are!

I agree with you Shane. I did not feel like a sucker when there was a flexpack and really only a slim hope at a decent team but with high expectations and full season tickets only to get kicked in the teeth by a team under the salary cap with a World Class stadium to play in makes me feel like a huge sucker. I do not mind as the tailgates have been great but this team has to Win some games for most of the peeps to not want to sell the tickets. Like this Bear game I could get $200 too $300 a ticket for my lower level seats (Not Selling!!!) and there are plenty getting more than that. The Steeler fans sitting in front of us have sold every other game other than the Preseason game with the World Champs. I do not know about any one else but I do not want to sit in the stadium surrounded by the other teams fans every week (like Sundevil) and the only thing that will fix that is consistant WINNING. I would rather sell my tickets and sit in the parking lot and TAILGATE the game away then be surround by obnoxious fans from Green Bay or KC or Chicago....this week will be the worse of all.

Rats: I mentioned this on Sunday....but we will lose our home field advantage against the Bears. Every bear fan from Southern California and Arizona seem to be trying to get tickets....the bears do not make it out this way much...and they are obviously on a roll - so the bandwagon is rolling....In addition..the prices they are willing to pay are very high..and the locals know traffic will be awful for a Monday night game (rush hour mess mixed in - remember the Denver preseason game..traffic was horrible).

I think bears and cowboys fans may outnumber cards fans...which completely sucks. I hate being surrounded by the enemy..it was not that bad so far...but wait until Monday. It will be awful.....obviously..this would not be happening if we were like 3-2..so winning cures all...

Did he really say that? I guess I now feel sorry for him. He knows his sports, but calling us “suckers” is way below where I thought he was.

To us, Sunday is all about football. My kids have a blast tailgating every other week. We go to bed early on Saturday night, so we can get up early and get everything ready for Sunday. We get the car packed and then play catch in our street for about 15 minutes. Then we meet our tailgate crew and head to that game. Then we tailgate for about 4 hours (having a lot of fun watching the early game, playing catch, eating, drinking, etc.).

Maybe he’s just a lonely old man?

 

[CardLogic]

Bob Kemp is on my ignore list!!! He has been there since I first heard him on the radio several years ago. The guy is a total jerk towards the very people which listen to and call him.

Bob Kemp fans are suckers!!!

 

[Lex]

Here's a prime example of how far out in space Bob Kemp is:

He refuses to talk about fantasy football, because he thinks all people that play fantasy football are idiots.

How many people in this country play fantasy football, 20 million, 30 million? Are they all idiots, or is Bob Kemp the idiot?

 

[abomb]

Success says Bob Kemp is a loser.

Also, the Jerk Store called and said they're runnin' out of Bob Kemp!

Nice.

 

[Team G]

This is another example of how bad most of the local sports talk radio is in the valley. I doubt that Bob Kemp has ever been loyal enough to ANY team enough to purchase season tickets and probably can’t remember the last time he actually paid money to attend a game.
Did anyone here those 2 clowns on Calling All Sports Tuesday? Manucci went into a 10 min rant saying that the Cards have a good chance against the Bears because they are 2-1 on MNF since moving to AZ and always rise up on Monday nights. What an idiot!

 

[mesacardsfan]

The cards do have a chance on Monday night, just not that big of one. But it is not out of the realm of possibility for Leinart to play well and we score some points, the bears haven't exactly been world beaters on the road, and have played a weak WEAK schedule so far this season. The Seattle game is the only tough opponent they faced and they got to see them without SA so. The bears are a good team but lets not get crazy about them just yet!

I dont know about the traffic. I made it from Tempe in rush hour traffic to the stadium parking lot in about 35 minutes. Traffic wasn't that bad at all.

 

[bigredjane]

You are so right!

I think the guy is a first class jerk, he has always enjoyed bashing the Cardinals at any chance he gets, I love his line, Callers what do you think of your Cardinals now? He just baits people, when I hear his voice I turn off the radio! He and Bickley should team up!!

 

[az jam]

If you are a Card fan and love pro football having season tickets at this spetacular new stadium is a damn smart move. Yeah its frustrating when they lose but what a wonderful venue to watch a game. I'm retired and have been in many stadiums but nothing like this.

I think Pinnacle is 100% right on this one. Prepare for it.

Bob Kemp has grown on me. Unlike 910 who is full of sports talk guys who:

1. Are arrogant because they write for the paper
2. Bash the football because they fired him

3. A Yankees fan who needs to move back to NY
4. Ash is the only good one.
