So far I've counted 2 instances in which they have leeched Bits off O and A and it is just from litening for 10 minutes.
1) FBA- as we all know first coined by Jay Mohr on the show
2) Making fun of magazines that tell PDs how to improve thier shows which I first heard years ago on O and A
What others have I missed?

Streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeke One!

Don't take this as me not agreeing with you (because I do), but it's common knowledge that radio personalities rip each other off all the time. Some are subtle, while others are just plain blatant.

Maybe they're trying to attract that younger demo to the show ala Stern was a few months ago with his daily use of the word "tool".

Besides, isn't that a best of? I thought Mike Sorce was dead? :-D

Not everything is a conspiracy. Haven't we learned that here about Hoo Hoo Howard's accusations?

Don has been going through the radio trade magazines for years, making fun of the ads and the wanna-be dee-jays. One of their oldest "bits."

After years of pushing away the under 18 year olds ("the latch key kids"), though, it wouldn't surprise me, that, seeing O&A's success there, that they have rethought that.

Not this shit again . . .

They didn't play FBA the song, they simply referred to someone having "full-blown AIDS" once. I don't know if Jay Mohr was the first person to ever use the phrase "full-blown AIDS," but even if he was, since the phrase has made it's way to mainstream vocabulary it's pretty much fair game.

EDIT: Cooler heads have said it thousands of times before on this board -- Stern zombies who claim that O & A et al stole everything from Big Bird are pathetic. For posters like Dennis30 to perpetrate bullshit like this is equally horrific. Save your energy for the creeps stealing the F-U Line or WOW, the blatantly obvious stuff . . .

They're also pulling the very original "Laugh track over something horrible" bit lately.
Now where could they have come up with that one?

Don and Mike have been doing the "laugh track over something horrible" bit for years, as has Stern. Please give it a break. Don and Mike have been doing this as a team for over 15 years now. If they do "what's in your pants" or WOW then bust them on it, but not this shit.

For the record, O&A did rip off Don and Mike about a month ago, when they repeated mentioning Stern's name over and over. Everyone here (on this board) howled with laughter, but (guess what) Don did the same thing a year ago, when he spent almost a half hour doing the same thing a year ago, to see if it would be edited in New York, when they were taped delayed. New Yorkers didn't know he had done this because it was cut out of the NY replay.

Of course, no one remembers this because it was cut out...and that no one in NYC listens to them. Still, O&A knew about it, and lifted it a year later, with no belly-aching from the Don and Mike fans (or is it fan?)

It was funny when Don did it...it was funny when O&A did it...it's a funny bit...

I heard a bit the other day, they had the guy in who does the voice overs at the breaks. He was running through about 15 or more lines. Then they asked him to do "i'm over here now" That is an outright steal of O&A, who rightfully stole it from Dice.

I heard this bit.

They actually had callers have the guy say things.

The reason that he said that was because a guy from NEW YORK called in and had them say it. They didnt come up with it by themselves

The two fat losers are now ripping off the "Whipped Cream Bikini contest", although it seems that they can't get girls to come down to the station.

Their show is a pathetic joke.

You're a god damn idiot, they're doing a homemade bikini contest. Which they don't claim to have invented. Its only been on radio and college bars forever now, or since Stern invented it.

Like O&A are the first to ever smash something in the studio.

People - GET OVER IT!!! Alomst every bit now is either a ripoff or a slightly changed version of something that has been done before. True, O&A have come up with some great original stuff. But just because you heard something on O&A and then heard it somewhere else doesn't mean they took it from them.
