Flounder was hapless but good-hearted. I'd say the prevailing opinion on the board** would have Bayless as more of a Chip Diller type -- perhaps even a Doug Neidermeyer.

** I still remember Bayless as a talented young Los Angeles Times columnist when I was in college. And later, as editor of a political magazine, I had some very brief dealings with him in which he was always friendly. I don't watch or listen to sports-talk guys, because I find them all incredibly shallow and annoying, so I'm not familiar with his current incarnation.

Well, Bayless is a sxxt disturber.  I thnk of Bayless as more incompetent than anything else.  But he is a d-bag like Neidermayer.
