Not only is he a baseball-only guy, his addiction is the 1960s-era Red Sox. It doesn't get any more boring than that. I'll never forget the night I landed for about three minutes on 'EEI and he was TRYING to talk NFL football. I turned it off when he kept messing up which teams were in which conference. DA is a far superior sportscaster.
Felger knows more about football than anyone @ EEI COMBINED.
You can dislike his shtick.. but the dude does know the game and his takes are generally pretty good.

It seems like every time I try to listen to WEEI I get a commercial. And if it not a commercial then it is baseball talk. Then if not baseball then Lou Merloni talking football. Blah.
WEEI is just one giant commercial with a dash of baseball talk.
In fairness to WEEI, 98.5 can be just as bad or worse. After listening Tony Mazz say that the Pats would rather resign Anderson, Carter, and a few others for $6 million than pay Mario Williams $9 million a year because he feels that even though Williams would be taking a huge discount that he believes the Pats are so entrenched in a "quantity over quality" way of thinking that they would stupidly turn down an elite player at a midrange player money because it would break from their philosophy.
Maybe WEEI isn't as bad as I thought.
Is he so wrong? Isn't the Pats' philosophy (sometimes maddeningly) good quality/great quantity is better than great quality/poor quantity? The question is whether the Pats are stupid or Mazz is stupid. Since the Pats have played winning football for over a decade and Mazz is a dufus, I would say he's the stupid one, but he isn't really wrong on their philisophy; just his interpretation of it.
The more I think about it, Mazz has a point. No way will the Pats take the #1 free agent at about a 40-50% discount of his market value when they can use that money to get a bunch value veteran minimum guys. Seems to be more in Belichick's character.
He is wrong. His point was that Williams will be giving away his services and the Pats turning him down.
LOL! Ok, I think I may switch to WEEI now. Michael "Mr. The Cap is Crap" Felger is now blasting the Pats for not having enough cap room to be a player in free agency because of bad dealings with Mankins, Wilfork, Welker, and Bodden. Apparently, the cap is crap unless the Pats are up against it and then the cap is real and the Pats mismanaged it.
Further proof that WEEI are a bunch of idiots that they are falling apart because 98.5 is pathetic.
BTW, I didn't want start a new thread for this and trying to force it into this thread since it is related.
lmao relationships beyond banking makes your life much easier lol.
