Not a fair comparison my friend.....

I actually LIKE Boobs!

Wasn't there also another time when he asked "can I ask a stupid question?" to which BB replied: "never stopped you before"?

Or was that someone other than Felger?

You listen to sports radio for football information?

The point of sports radio isn't information, it for entertainment. The only time you gain any information is when there is a guest that actually knows what he is talking about. Zolak is probably the only host with any real insight into football.

I actually enjoy the morning guys because they are the only ones that don't pretend to be sports experts. They have a lighthearted approach towards sports and add something that has been missing from the coverage around here...fun. I'll pass on another show that gives me half baked game analysis in exchange for Big Bang Clock and Party Gronk.

What you consider light-hearted I consider absolutely assinine. You can have fun, light-hearted sports talk - and not sound like a dumber version of bevis and butthead. The 98.5 morning show is the worst of the worst in entertainment. They aren't funny! They are just stupid.

Real World

Both stations are really bad. I can deal with only two shows all day long. That's D & C in the morning, and Felger and Mazz in the afternoon. Even with both I only listen in the car, and no longer listen at work. Both midday shows are atrocious. Absolutely horrible. Gresh's voice may be the most annoying in the history of the FM dial. He sounds like he's yelling alll the time. Mutt and Merloni...gag. Ordway I don't even need to talk about since most in here have described him to a tee. Poor Holley.

One of these stations needs to bring back Bob Neumier and "the nerds". I miss Neumi on the radio.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."

I work from home a lot So, I listen online. Gresh might be one of the dumber people on air I've ever heard. When there's an argument about something. He'll try to wrap it up by making a stupid comparision that doesn't make sense and has nothing to do with the original debate.

Gresh is from Pa. and "graduated" from URI , here in R.I. He's a life long Steelers fan. The year the Pats won the S.B. with a win over the Panthers, he picked against the Pats every single game of the season but two, as an analyst on the now defunct sports radio station, the SCORE. In between blowing gas like that in this competitive market in southern N.E., his fallback field of expertise all season long was the WWE, about which he would rant and rave and ramble on interminably at the drop of a hat. Unfortunately for all of us, some poor girl from RI fell in love with this buffoon and married him, otherwise we would have been rid of his obnoxious presence for good.

It isn't all bad ,however.While "working" at the SCORE, he consistently missed the mark with the worst toilet humor and racist tinged "jokes" I've ever heard on the airwaves....stuff that you hear a six year old tell in the schoolyard.In particular, his fake "Chinese guy" imitation was particularly embarrassing and offensive to both the radio station and his on-air partner ,Scott Cordische.Since moving into the slot at 98.5 with Zolak,he's managed to raise his maturity level to that of a teenager. Progress is progress I guess.

The highlighted part of your post reminded of something. About a decade ago, my then girlfriend and I were watching Return of the Jedi and she said that Jabba the Hutt didn't need to keep Leia as a slave girl because even he could find someone to love him. Although I had to dump her for suggesting that they erase Leia's gold bikini from cinematic history which fueled by childhood fantasies along with the fact she said that she thought the Ewoks were "cute" and "fun", she was proven right if the real world Jabba the Hutt (Gresh) could find someone to love him.

Well, that's just it, you can't right? Even if you tried.

Basically sports talk radio in Boston is hours of mindless, sophomoric humor or (D&C) right wing political ranting punctuated by occassionally insightful commentary, which is usually only the case when they have a guest on.


This is where we differ -- I'd really like sports radio to be mostly news and analysis. But the problem is that you really can't fill 16 hours/day with news and analysis, so instead you get complete garbage.

I've stopped listening to it. Now it's all about 'EEI on Demand to listen to the recording of the Brady/Belichick interviews, etc.

What's worst is they giggle all the time at their own moronic jokes. I'd never heard "adult" males giggle like that before and hopefully never will again, since I swore off their show after trying it for 15 minutes one morning. I don't listen to D & C either -- a couple of nasty, mean-spirited cynics.
