No type of real opinion or any analysis. As Curt Schilling aptly put…”there’s a reason why you’re doing the flash every 20 minutes”.

Will wonders never cease!

The Ghost of Acres hit the nail on the head with his thorough analysis of JM above (minus the deathwish, I may not like the guy but don’t wish him anything fatal).

If by ‘extremely clever’ you had meant snarky and condoscending, then I would have agreed with you. ‘Another element’ he adds to the EEI morning show is being a whipping boy. If that Iggy guy was a little older and had the cajones to challenge Callahan that would make for some must-listen-to radio, but not Mr. Metric.

And the way he treated the Revolution play-by-play job was a total disgrace to anyone who has ever tried to call a game.

1. you know “king of all dorks” was that kid in school that we all had that would argue that the Yankees, Canadiens, Lakers, etc. were better, but when he was at home alone would watch the games & root for the boston team..

2. phony voice right outta the CSB manual.

3. Is one of those a-holes that laughs at his own jokes .
3a. The next timehe comes up with something funny on his own will be the first. (I know for a fact that those Friday “King’s Things” he used to do were written for him)

4. has NEVER come up with an original thought on his own. when not completely glomming onto whatever Callahan says, he gets his contrarian argument points from another source, ie: Espn.com or some national outlet that he thinks none of us would figure out.

5. brings Callahans same viewpoints/humor from the radio show to Sports Tonight

6. gets EVERYTHING given to him through his rich daddy’s connections…(daddy works at Fenway now, got his sister a high exec job with the San Jose soccer team the Krafts owned for awhile) why again was it necessary for Meter to do one “random” inning of a Sox game?? I had hoped it was part of a “make-a-wish” deal.

7.loves to hear himself talk, so, when he can’t think on his feet, just repeats whatever D or C just said using different words…

8. tries to get everyone to believe that he knows what he’s talking about by adding a suffix or phrase at the end like, “no doubt about it, Dino” Uh, yeah, Skolnick, there IS a doubt about it, ‘cuz you just completely made that point up!!

9. As totally as one-dimensional a human being as he is, even then the only thing he knows MAYBE is baseball…remember that little game they used to have, “Beat the Meter” or whatever where the callers would trade trivia questions with him? the questions could only be ’since 1975′…they stopped that ‘cuz they were giving away too many prizes..

10. He acts as if he’s this hip, cool guy’s guy and talks down to callers with that stolen “sarcastic, wise-ass Dennis Leary style personality” that Callahan stole himself, but in the early years they had to teach this 30 yr. old virgin everything: gambling & boozing down at Mohegan, stuff about chicks (you KNOW he married the 1st chick that laid him)when they had hot guests around, etc.

I hope he gets cancer of the larynx so we can be done with him forever, cuz with Wolfie’s sack-ful of 3 yr. contract renewals always reserved for the “boys”, that’s the only way to get rid him!
