>>Ye gods, no!  Sports radio lives or dies on the (perceived or real) 
  *emotional investment* of the hosts and callers on the subjects 
in  question.

Yes--look at J.T. The Brick on Fox Sports Radio (WEEI overnight);
they'll dump callers who aren't passionate, sound sleepy, etc.
And The Big Show on WEEI gets people who complain about shouting,
talking over other people, etc.--yet it gets HUGE ratings, as
does the whole station. If they went to a less emotional
approach (and were to dump the humor element) their ratings
would plunge.
