EEI is a baseball machine.
Ohh well guess I will use the serius more.....
I liked the idea of what they were doing, but Felger started, was quite good and then became the Ron Borges of the radio...Yes, he talked football, but he was overbearing and negative..arrogant and pompous..and unlistenable for more than a few minutes. I liked the Friday interviews..but just thought he was too much of a puyz to listen all the time. the best sgow was the Troy Brown Show, which lasted a few months, having some interesting non-football talk. Another station is needed, but never with felger.
Too bad. I actually like Felger's show. Not for Felger, but his guests. Andy Hart and Tom Casale are pretty good. He has Mike Florio on which at least can get you to throw stuff at your radio. He also has a lot of the ESPN network guys.
I can barely listen to WEEI anymore. The morning show is just horrible between the political stuff, Meterperel's stupidity of playing the contrarian, and Dennis' and Callahan's anti-Belichick rants. I can stomach the midday show. The Big Show is far too dominanted with stupid Pete Sheppard and Fred Smerlas homer to the point of almost mocking Pats fans jibberish.
I guess if ESPN890 goes away, it is Sirius NFL Radio every afternoon. Maybe 1510 the Zone will wise up and instead of doing Boxing talk get a real host and talk football to fill the void.
Despite the obvious drawbacks, there have been many times where I have turned from the incessant Bankofamericasox talk on WEEI to happily find Patriots talk happening on 890. It's been a welcome alternative.
They have had a LOT of football talk...but Felger is just terrible..even today he was talking about teh Patriots kissijng Moss's ass not franchising him and HOW he hates it. Funny how at other times when the Pats have used the franchise tag he has taken the plaayer's side and thought it wasn't the right move. He has more faces than Mount Rushmore..the only consistent thing is his hate for the Patriots.. I LOVE football talk..but when its with him, it can't be long lasting. I get sick of his blatant pompousness and how it is all about him. Too bad this wave won't be washing him away as well. And what is sad is that he started pretty fair and good and listenable...and then it all went to his head.
