Its always interesting when we start talking about sports talk radio. Some comments on the comments.
1. For all his shtick, which I hate, Felger is still the best at allowing callers to speak their piece and engage them in legitimate discussions when they have something to offer. I get the impression he actually listens, as opposed to the rest, who by and large, don't.
2. Maz, unfortunately peaked with "Naughty Mazzarotti" on the morning show, and is otherwise a waste of space....UNLESS the topic is baseball. He is useless on anything else, and I am usually offended, because he tries to make it seem like he knows what he's talking about
3. Sadly the interviews of outside guests are usually the highlight of any of these shows
4. I wish there could be something done about adding some new blood to the "regular callers". I swear that some of these people think that they have a regular job on the show and they have to call EVERY day to say pretty much the same thing. It's beginning to make the times when they turn to taking calls, the time for me to switch to NPR, or ROR.
5. At least for now, EEI is going to pair Holley back with Dale, but I think a previous poster had a great idea, and that would be to pair Holley up with Felger, who I think would be the best around, IF....he stopped trying to piss everyone off, just to create "
drama". Listen to when he talks about hockey. There you get the real Felger. Felger the fan, rather than Felger the provocateur.
