WSCR-AM/670 The Score is having its own kind of "March Madness" this month. Once again, The Score is having their annual "Tournament of Bad," where listener-selected choices of "everything bad in this world" will be pitted against each other in a contest to see just what is the worst annoying person/item/situation for this year. All selections came from emails by WSCR-AM fans and listeners over the last month or so.
Among the dozens of "Bad" choices are: Men with ponytails, Frank Caliendo, vending machine sandwiches, using the word "supposeably," Italian cruise ship captains, Guy Fieri, and people who don't turn on red.
