The average start time for a job is 8am so the most popular drive time is between 7:30am and 8:00am. If you want to see what happened in sports the night before at that time, do NOT listen to WEEI! You will get the Dennis and Callahan Democrat bashing show. You’d swear that Jerry was on the political debate team back in high school and all the democrats stuffed him in his locker and gave him swirlies. It’s funny that he talks about how fanatical the middle east is and that they are unable to look objectively at what they’re doing while he himself would bash a democrat that had just cured cancer, established world peace and sacrificed his life for another. He has no credibility. The funny thing is, i’m not even a democrat! I jsut vote for the best person, not specific parties. Lastly, they say that their drive time rating is so fantastic and thats why they continue to waste our time with the news. WAKE UP!!!!! your rating is so good at that time because we are loyal and there is no other station to change to where we can hear sports. If the new station has sports during that drive time…..watch WEEI’s ratings during that time PLUMMET!

I can’t say I will listen to this new station all day, but I certainly will during my morning drive to work. I love listening to sports talk but Dennis and Callahan are a couple of morons who should perhaps be on the brainless Fox news station.

I have been listening to WEEI mornings for about ten years. The have taken on a WWE persona the last several years. Callahan is the badguy screamer, Dennis is the good guy voice of reason, Meter is or tries to be comic relief. Plus he is the hack guy for any boston player in a slump. I really need something different so I’m going to give T&R a chance this week as a warm up. I would love to see the afternoon blow-hard Big-o take a fall. That show is one big shoutathon.

Please give Bill Simmons a show! Can’t deal with D&C when they get into politics as Gerry Callahan becomes the insane uncle you see at christmas and slowly back out of the room from. The big show is ok, but the disrespect that Shepard and many of the regulars have for guests is really BS. Hope we can actually get some sports talk in this town instead of bits and pieces.

I have a feeling we’re going to see Borges as one of the hosts on either Felger’s or Tanguay’s shows. Just my opinion…

Pete Kendall is an unsigned free agent, most likely he is hanging them up, he has done some great radio, see if he’s interested in working for the new sports station! Great guy, professional and intellegent and knows the game of football.

I’d love to hear Ben Maller on an overnite show again – does anyone else agree?

Damn, talk about smug arrogance.

I am looking forward to an alternative to D&C smugness, the bland mid day stuff, and uneven big show. Felger has a brain and is funny and irreverent (Rob Bradford gets my vote for Felger co-host). My favorite Felger moments include his domination of Michael Kay in a head to head debate and his demolition of a pompous Trey Wingo. Hopefully Sports Hub will stream for those of us away from home. Podcasts too. Also would enjoy an alternative to JT the Brick at night.
