Problem with him is he has the ESPN syndrome. They’re broadcasters became the story. We get it, you smoke weed and take gummies. Wear a different hat and stop trying to be like Felger.

Holley is prob the best sports guy in Boston. Best radio guy and tv right now. WEEI sure misses him. Very open minded and his thoughts are well thought out.

He is hated because he is an equal opportunity troll of fans for all 4 teams.

Tough crowd. Joe Murray’s hockey takes are awful but love his combo betting/food takes on the weekends. I guess I’m just numb from years of sports radio but it’s pure entertainment and background noise in my garage or driving around. Enjoy the Murray’s (Gasper and Murray) on the weekend, hockey show, the occasional Flynn/Johnson with Johnston. I like Hardy, Zo, Keefe. They get a laugh out of me like the characters on Seinfeld so maybe I’m a different breed.
I have to admit I share Felgers disdain for the NBA and streaming. I enjoy it until the yelling is constantly cycled between the northeast men’s clinic commercials that make me want to jump out the window

Adam Jones talking "hockey" on a monday morning is not a good way to start the week
Bruins Could win the Cup and I bet Zo & Bertrand would still start their show off with an hour of some off-season Pats story the next morning.

RIP Fred Hickman (Turner Sports) 1956-2022; the original host of Inside the NBA ON TNT (Before EJ/Shaq/Charles/Kenny made it household and successful
Fred Hickman passed away yesterday at the age off 66.
In the 80's CNN's Sports Tonight hosted by Hickman, Nick Charles, Jim Huber and many others was the most watched sports highlight show every night at 11 PM. The Gulf War of 1991 changed that and ESPN Sportscenter then took over.

I was talking with my daughter (22 y.o.) about how different it was being a sports fan prior to the internet.
A couple of bullet points of our conversation that she was just amazed about.
1. During my childhood you were lucky if you got to see a California team in baseball, basketball or hockey play 2 games a year. I knew about Steve Garvey, Pedro Guerrero, Marcel Dionne, Dave Taylor, etc. But rarely got to see them play.
2. When I was in college I would drive from Lawrence to Newburyport (60 minutes round trip) just to pick up the Hockey News, because for some reason it was delivered there 2 days earlier than in any town closer to me. The big pull was being able to see the stats for all of the players in the league, which of course were out of date by the time it was printed on Sunday or Monday.
3. I vividly remember by former boss telling me about the new feature that CNN was using ---the crawl at the bottom of their feed that provided the scores from that night. This was an amazing feature that meant you didn't need to wait until the 11:00 news to get scores. That was 1993 -- I didn't have internet in my home until 94 or so.
4. Speaking of the 11:00 news ----- If I remember correctly, the first 15 minutes was dedicated to news. Then some commercial time. Then weather for 3-4 minutes then sports for probably 10 minutes or so. They typically gave every score from all sports and a ton of highlights. Watching the 11:00 news was a huge deal, as there was only maybe a noon and 6pm news cast each day and obviously you'd only get scores and highlights from the day before during these.
I don't know if things were better during those simpler times, but the memories sure are good.
