Overview
Sports Implosion was a weekly radio show on now defunct pirate radio station KBFR in Boulder, Colorado. The show originally featured 'Magnum' (later known as 'Atticus'), 'Tackleberry', and 'Harry Callahan'. The shows' main focus was sports but often drifted toward general social commentary. The show ran from March 2004 to August 2004 on Saturday mornings. A highly entertaining and controversial show, many DJs at KBFR were intimidated by its popularity and offensive nature.
Controversy
The three hosts were under pressure from the beginning to cutback on vulgarity and aggressive criticism of people on air. This eventually took its toll on the show and its hosts who refused to curtail their natural demeanors. In response, the hosts actually increased their aggressive nature to show their listeners they would not be intimidated by their peers. The show eventually met its demise when KBFR founder Monk shutdown the station in response to the resignation of founding member Sapphire.
