I was getting frantic because I wanted to listen to Bubba's show today, but my XM radio online player wasn't playing Howard 101. Howard 100 worked, but 101 was running the audio from the NFL channel. Luckily, my Sirius online player still works for some reason.

so what about his testicular show? by trying to go cheap, sirius would have had to buy out bubba's existing testicular contract, and then pay him even more money.

I'll admit, I didn't think they would re-sign him after the things he said about the company on air.

But I would say it's a good thing that they did re-sign him, it keeps his fan base happy.

I'm just glad K9 Feces has lightened up on Bubba over the years. He's a total fan, just won't admit it much.
A closet mark?

He's still under contract to Cox for two more years.
