I don't know. Felger does have Mike Greenberg, John Clayton, Chris Mortensen, and Vic Carrucci on every week. Those all are very public national figures. He had Rich Cimini on after his very public mistake. Felger has Mike Vrabel, Ben Watson, and Vince Wilfork on weekly. He will have Troy Brown on weekly if and when he gets off the PUP. It isn't like Felger doesn't get some big time football related guests. He also has Buster Onley on every week during the baseball season. Because he works for ESPN, Felger arguably gets as good or better guests through that connection.
No one beats a hot button topic into the ground better than WEEI. If it is a hot story, they are guaranteed to rehash the story over and over again until even they are sick of hearing about it. Romo and Ted Johnson would have been interesting on Monday or Tursday. By Friday and five straight days of talking about Harrison and HGH, it is just plain overkill.
