heard a funny thing on WEEI in Boston this AM

[elimunelson]

they were trying to convince themselves that Chip Kelly would have interest in coaching Boston College. Unless his family was hell bent on returning to New England, i'd put the chances of this happening at 2%. I could definitely see Brian Kelly come to BC if ND fires him.

Anyway, humorous ride into work listening to this.

 

[texascpa]

I think the 2% is too high, and the way ND is playing, Kelly will probably be extended.

 

[RandomGuy]

Heard that, too.

Funnier. On Saturday, they spoke about why no one cares about bc football. They said the move to the ACC, and the loss of rivalries, including Miami, and Syracuse(said cuse twice)... Err... Umm... they didn't know they were in the ACC...

Boston sports radio doesn't know much about college football...they were also thinking Jim Kelly could be the coach... Also, bc is only aired on the AM side. No FM

You should listen to Toucher & Rich on 98.5.

I'd rather have sharp bamboo jabbed into my eyes than listen to Callahan.

didn't think it was possible but Minihane is officially a bigger POS than Dennis or Callahan ever was...

If you want to listen to two zookeepers who know nothing about sports Toucher & Rich is the show to listen too.

Kirk is a hateable and Callahan is a right winger but their show miles better.

Chris Curtis's dad could give Chip 7 million a year and he won't take that job.

Chip will get the UCLA or an SEC job.

I pass on both shows. Minihane and Callahan are awful. And Toucher and Rich is worse.

I agree but if I had to listen to one of them atleast Kirk and Callahan know sports.
Minihane has mental issues and is very keen on media on media crime to generate heat. Callahan is more sporty but I can see why you don't like him he is a Ted Cruz conservative and calls liberals maggots.

 

[Scooch]

You guys are crazy, T&R are hysterical.

 

[Alsacs]

KaiserUEO knows more about Boston sports than either Fred Toucher or Rich Shertenlieb know.

Their show isn't about sports. The Jagr thing is so dumb.
The 98 mile thing is so stale and unoriginal.
They know nothing about sports and the Meriweather/Gorman crap is stale.
I don't care what Joe Sullivan or Pete Abraham think. They appear on that crap show.


Boomer on the FAN is more interesting than T&R.
T&R have gotten stale and their ratings have gone well below K&C.

 

[elimunelson]

I listen to both stations. Gerry Callahan IMO is the best writer in town if he devoted himself to writing again.

Minihane saved WEEI and the morning show. As much as people claim to hate him, their ratings have gone through the roof. His podcast is fantastic too.

Regarding Chip Kelly, it was a funny topic to hear on Boston radio. Nothing more than that. BC will eventually hire a non neanderthal to run their program. We need to make due right now while they are really down.

 

[TheCusian]

I have a radio hot take idea: Is BC the new Rutgers?

Minihane saved the morning show because a-hole behavior sells in radio. Look no further than the sports hub afternoon show. Mike Felger called out a listener because the listener thought the first topic today should have been the Red Sox. He said another guy that wants to program the show. Hey Mike, you think you know how every Boston team should be run. It's outlandish because someone thought you had the wrong lead?

While i think Kelly is overrated and a total pompus boob; moving to Boston ? Not a chance.

Felger and Mazz is such an annoying show.

Felger has become the most powerful media person in Boston. All that Wisconsin douche does is hammer the most successful franchise in all of sports the Patriots. He mocks the fans for loving their team just like he loves the Packers. He has an echo chamber in Mazz who agrees with everything he says and never challenges him.

He hates the NBA and mocks fans who like it as hoop heads.

He is smart and lets the insane troll Mazz be negative on the Red Sox. He is right on the length of the game being a problem.

He is overtly positive on the Bruins because he likes hockey. Felger is a joke and because he likes hockey doesn't troll the franchise like he does the Patriots. One team wins and the other because he likes the sport doesn't get hammered.

The worst thing Felger has done is spawn a generation of cynical ahole youth radio hosts like Adam Jones, Rich Keefe, Jim Murray who troll their audiences because Felger is good at it.

I swear listening to 5 minutes of Adam Jones makes me hate sports. Whenever I want to not care about a team I listen to him and his crazy negativity that sucks.

 

[Stern]

Chips is built for the SEC. If LSU loses a couple more like last week I could see them breaking the bank for him actually

 

[OttoinGrotto]

The Dazzler to Kelly could have catastrophic universal consequences. I'm talking tearing the fabric of reality like crap.

Jim Murray and I quote, said to a caller, you got kids? The guy said yes. He said I hope you outlive them. He should have , at the least been suspended. I would have fired him on the spot. and Mazz said NOTHING.

What you said about these troll radio hosts making you hate sports is exactly why I like T&R. I don't care that they can't break down Xs and Os. They put sports in the proper perspective and make me laugh. Life is too damn short to spend hours being agitated by dopey radio hosts who are insincerely playing characters. And let's be real, very few of these guys are experts. They're personalities.

But hey, to each their own, obviously.

I think you are forgetting the amount of times Steve Spurrier’s name came up.

We too are delusional. It’s cool...

The fact he didn't get punished tells you all you
Need to know.
Felger and Mazz show just trolls it's audience to crazy degrees.

I get your point I just find Toucher and Rich to be Opie and Anthony light.

Being built for the SEC means you will be inevitably fired for unrealistic expectations. Aside from Spurrier/Meyer/Saban in recent years, it's a job set up for failure. I think the playoff has made other conferences as intriguing to the big time coaches if the path to the playoff is easier. That's why I think it would be bananas for Dabo to leave Clemson.

I think Chip is gonna think long and hard if he wants the SEC meatgrinder for his next job. I actually think he looks to UCLA if he goes the college route.

 

[SmilinBob]

I don't know, when Chip Kelly is ready to coach college Texas should be firing their coach by then. Every 2 or 3 years they go through one like clockwork.

I stopped listening to sports radio and ESPN long ago and to be honest I enjoy the quiet in the car than to listen to any of them that are trying to get hits or ratings by riling up the masses.

SEC meatgrinder? This is not the SEC of old. The East is the worst division in football and the West is just Bama.
