The Soup is a convoluted, rehashed version of old news. Sam Betesh is a loser that would never survive any other network or time slot. Ben and his crew made the night shift fun and something to look forward to. Who are these freaks Betesh forces down our throats night after night? Screaming babble and idiotic movie critique? What a waste of air time you offer now!

Fox you're a joke. The third shift made my night home worth driving every night. You really are a joke. You can afford to cover the Super Bowl and the BCS series but you can't afford to keep quality talent like the Third Shift on the air. F'n joke. Ben, Karen, Julio, and the crew worked twice as hard as any f'n corporate suits you have. I don't want to listen to some f'n "late night soup" wrap up. If I wanted a wrap up I'd watch sportscenter you ****es. <br /><br />Ben, Karen, Julio, and the crew best of luck.<br /><br />FSR... thanks for making ESPN my source for sports. <br /><br />F'n marketing Guru's...I half expect you to just air the audio from a "House" episode now. F'n morons. We get it!!! The cases are outrageous!!! House is eccentric!!!He'll solve it!! But everyone still thinks he's crazy!!! Even after he's solved a hundred outrageous cases!! In a hundred eccentric ways!!!! HE'S CRAZY!!! WHAT A SHOW!!!<br /><br /><br />F you Fox<br />F you.

POKEY POKEY POKEY!!!!!! There's nothing decent to listen to on FSR now that Big Ben and the crew are gone. I guess I'll have to do some searching to find out where my entertainment ends up...

To gone for a month and return only to have your one show gone. What the He!!. You need to bring the Third Shift back with Big Ben, KK, the rest of the Crew. The Third Shift was the only way I could get through a lot of long nights working. Until Big Ben and The Crew are back I will moving my listening pleasure over to the 4 letter. Bring Ben and the Crew back

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for getting rid of those giggling idiots on the third shift. Especially that Karen K. no wonder she can't get anyone to marry her. I'd rather dip my boys in boiling oil that listen to that broad. Please put a real sports person in the seat. Again ,Thank You

I live in Nashville, TN and work the overnight shift. I had been listening to the 3rd Shift w/ Big Ben and Karen K and the crew for the last six months, until their sudden disappearance recently. The Soup is a cheap substitute. If you want to give us highlights from every shift, then that should be in the form of extra online content, in my opinion. It will never match the energy that Ben and Karen provided, and the Soup does not care about us, and I'm beginning to wonder if you do. We need interaction to make it through. not Soup. Bring Ben, Karen, Greg, and Vlad back, please.

I use to listen to the 3rd shift and enjoyed it for many years, but since the change I have gone on to other networks.Without Ben and Karen, I find little entertainment from the present slot. Whomever thought this was a good idea for the listeners should also be canned. A blunder of the highest level.

where is Ben and the 3rd shift? Did the time change or has the show been replaced? I don't like that Sport Soup that is currently in it's time slot

Ben, I've been listening to you since your weekend gig days when both you and Bruce Jacobs worked your shifts ALONE and ruled the airwaves. While I still find you entertaining, your giggling, cackling skank sidekick is unbearable. No wonder why Jorge Sedano parted ways. After only 2 minutes of the skank and I have to change the station. I wish you were teamed up with Deb Carson instead. Deb is not only gorgeous, but at least she would chime in with something intelligent on your show unlike the cackling hen skank you are stuck with now. Too bad you and Jacobs don't team up and do a nightly show. The ratings would go through the roof.

BTW, the 2 worst fans in the NFL are Dallas Cowboys fans and Piggsburgh Squeelers fans, because they have NO sense of reality! - Oriole33

The Chargers are going down, the Vikings are going down. NOBODY wants to play the Ravens or the Colts! Ravens get a sweet 2nd round match vs. the Titans and will win!! Indy v. Bal in AFC championship. SteAlers have no offensive line, no running game- they will be gone!!

I listened to part of the show on Sunday night. Ben went off on a guy that simply had an opinion that there should be quotas for races in the ranks of NCAA college coaches. I knew that this angry little man had to be a defective person to be so hair-trigger. He refered to the caller as a moron and idiot. I just saw Ben's photo and understand the source of his aggression.
