Oh, Jesus. Jason Whitlock called Nick Wright twice this week?

Jason Whitlock, the bridge-burning sports columnist who left The Kansas City Star last year, broke off a call to 610 Sports host Nick Wright on Monday. "Literally, I'm so bored," Whitlock said at the outset of the conversation, a bad omen.

Whitlock and Wright are talented guys. They're also careerists. So the discussion, which resumed on Wright's show on Tuesday, was more about Whitlock, Wright and their frenemy status than about the Chiefs or the Royals.

The curious can find both segments at KCSP's website. Media critic John Landsberg also has a breakdown of Monday's conversation, saying it "may have been 25 minutes of the most brutal radio in Kansas City history."

We decided that the best way to analyze the substance of the conversation was with a clunky-looking pie chart. Enjoy!

Let me get this straight, Whitlock 's career has been reduced to phoning in to local sports talk radio shows? On AM no less. Hard to believe an opinionated, halfwit, moron fat bastard can't get a job.

Where is the chart for all the dead air between Nick's sentences when he speaks on the air?
