WEEI: Callahan leaving D&C for Big Show? (Mod Edit) Political Flame
 
I was driving in listening to WEEI and they mentioned that Callahan is going to the big show but didn't give any other details..

Anyone hear more about this?

God I hope not... no doubt he'd bring his politics to it, and that's exactly why I avoid the morning show like the plague.

And before I start anything, I'm not saying I agree or disagree with his politics, I just don't care when I'm looking for sports talk.

My god I hope this is a joke (I heard them referencing it on EEI as well, but thought they may be joking). Callahan would not fit on the Big Show at all. For starters, Callahan would rather talk politics than sports, and that might fly on the morning show, but that'll never work for the afternoon show.

Asides from that, Callahan, like Dennis, doesn't offer any insight into any sport and speaks in such generalities - he can't grasp the finer points of sports, so he's limited to the role of host, which Big O does, and does much better.

It was a bit. They have Jenna Jameson as a sideline reporter too. Like that is going to happen.

They are playing on Callahan's recent "ball washing" of the Patriots and how it fits better with the ball washing on the Big Show than the cynical D&C Show.

Like them or hate them, Dennis and Callahan get ratings. No way are they going to break them up and move Callahan to a panel show like the Big Show.

I hate that guy.

I hate his partner more.

Meter is also despicable.

I still listen to them when I'm back there.

I once heard Callahan say... 'some moron from Iower'. And yesterday he said 'they can beat Atlanter'.

Same here. I'd love it if they were replaced though. I only listen to them b/c there's no other options.

Wow, that's nice of WEEI to help Felger and Massarotti out.

I'm never listening to the Big Show on days that Callahan is on.

That sucks. I loved "Headlines" in the morning with D+C, especially Callahan. Love him or hate him; I love him.

BSMW just says it's a one-day thing:

Quote:

It sounds like Gerry Callahan is going to be making an appearance on the Big Show this afternoon, at least that’s what was stated a number of times on the WEEI morning show today, hosted by Butch Stearns and Greg Dickerson. John Dennis is undergoing surgery this morning, and apparently will be out to at least start next week. At the end of the morning show, Dickerson said that Callahan would be back in the morning on Monday.
