weei and 98.5 under 1 roof - UPDATE!

This will create a vacuum, which will be filled by a startup station in a couple of years. Hopefully the new station will focus on intelligent analysis and commentary, and stay away from the narcissistic immediate gratification reptilian stuff these two stations have specialized in. The new station will be able to have a great relationship will both of its Greater Boston listeners, too.

It’s funny, I have both Pandora n Spotify apps on my phone n really never use them. My daughter streams all the time audio n video. She says “streaming is a generational thing”!!

FYI I am 70 years old.. not sure about that generational thing.

If their programming is intelligent analysis they will not make it.

Agree. They have no interest in talking about sports.

They talk less sports than ever - they seek drama wherever they can find it.
I never cared much for any of their opinions ... I used to listen for the interviews while on the road.
Sadly, there are not many of those anymore so unless there is huge news I do not bother tuning in.

Totally. I had to come in the office this am and in my 1/2 hr commute all I heard was how Minnehane is too skinny and went to a Bruce Springsteen play and Mutt's DUI arrest.

Who gives a flying f***

Which is why it’s elite

4 straight hours of sports? I’d rather get aids


Also it’s nice to have right wing people in the media. Too many of you lefties

libs don't like balance..they want everyone to think like them...because they are obviously right

Felger isn't going anywhere.

If felger and mazz can't find a home, I assume Dale is the odd man out and it becomes felger and holley real soon.

Sports hub doesn't have anyone else that's gonna change weei current roster.

Maybe mazz, like on the weekend shows they don't even advertise.

INOW you believe that their critique of Martha Coakley by praising convicted child molester Tookie Amirault and having him on their show was a good thing?? That is not left vs. right, what happened to Tookie was justice administered by the Courts... FYI every legal appeal failed for Amirault and no victim has ever recanted their testimony..

Too many lefties?? Perhaps it is about justice for child molesters and not making them media darlings..

Personally it made me sick to hear their defense of Amirault (who was portrayed as some sort of victim) in an effort to undermine Coakley.. my disdain had nothing to do with the merits of Coakley, only with using this convicted child molester as a cheap political trick.

If they can find a way to remove Fauria from any/all tv and radio outlets it'll be happy

I’ll be honest, I listen to them several times a week and have for the last couple of years and have never heard them bring up any of the names you mentioned.... but I find it very hard to believe they’d defend or respect a child molester.

Edit: I’m not saying that didn’t happen, I’m just saying I literally have no idea what you’re talking about, personally. Lol

You should know the sordid history of Dennis and Callahan, they are classic bottom feeders.. there are no limits to further their agenda and seek ratings.. they are one of the many reasons why I do not listen as much to sports talk radio.

Trust me D&C and Howie Carr defended Tookie in an effort to derail Martha Coakley..

Howie Interviews Coakley Victim Tookie Amirault

There was a previous thread about this also..

Massachussets: Coakley vs Baker

I am not a "hot take" kind of guy, I prefer intelligent discussion from someone who understands the context of the Patriots organization and how they operate.. Holley is also has a pretty good understanding the Celtics/NBA which I enjoy as well.. Dale Arnold has a very good understanding of the hockey world so they compliment each other. Red Sox meh..

This whole "hot take" ******** is a product of an "short attention span society"..

my take also, "Hot takes" or what ever you want to call it is one of the reasons I turned away from sports radio.
