Pre-game conversation on XM would've been great without Billy Ripken

I was very happy to hear the voices of Jon Miller, Charley Steiner and Rob Dibble on 175 at 6:35PM tonight weaving conversation of individual players and personalities. Unfortunately, an XM charity case, Billy Ripken, was foisted into the mix and I had to turn the show off. He has a terrible voice, absolutely nothing new to add, and commandeers every opportunity to tell boring stories about himself. His remarks are filled with players' nicknames, rather than their actual names, and in incomprehensible contexts. It must be nice to be the brother of another boring guy who can't let go gracefully.
