OT: Official Sports Media Thread X: WEEI's owner is nearly broke

[Fenway]

Bob Lobel is a mentor of mine and a friend.



Spinal degeneration is an awful disease but he has fought it bravely. I can tell you he is more worried about Mike Lynch's recovery from a stroke than his own situation.

How good was Bob Lobel?

He used to do a sports highlights segment during the Carson show - these are hysterical

Not sure if this is the right thread, but does anyone know where is the best place (or really A place) to find full old game videos from the mid/late-90s? There are a couple on YouTube, but that is really all I've been able to locate to this point.

Boy, I thought Felger was the biggest dink in Boston air, Adam Jones has him beat. Yesterday Felger was on defense against Jones concerning the B’s. Wow.

I grew up in Northern Vermont and most up there being so close to the Canadian border are Montreal fans. Jones grew up in Newport, Vermont which is 3 miles from the Canadian border so I will let everyone come to their own conclusions.

Merloni out at EEI. Fauria to middays. Keefe looking like he will go to nights.

Merloni might actually slide over to Nesn now-might. Weei is managed poorly. That is for sure.

WEEI is in desperate straights.

A Montreal media friend told me they have hired Chris Nilan and are looking at him for middays

No other crackheads available other than the one who broke Nifty's face?

Think we will bring in a Canadien in Boston. Guy hates Boston Bruins. That’ll work here……wtf. I won’t listen to that piece of shit.

 

[Ozamataz Buckshank]

It's amazing how WEEI keeps rearranging themselves every few years yet keep coming up short.

I adore Keefe but his goofiness is a better fit at night. Is he going to replace Mut?

Keene is MEH, the problem is Gresh. Both have bad mid day shows. Faria and Gresh with football for 4 hours. Even worse.

I have a vague memory of Nilan co-hosting with Dale one day, and the entire show was de-railed by callers wanting to rip him for butt-ending Rick Middleton.

Adam Jones is an absolute horror show

Sorry, but I will believe this when it happens, nonsencial to do that. I'm going to say that this is nothing but a rumor.

Yah…. Doesn’t make sense.

WEEI just rearranging the deck chairs on Titanic. Lou Merloni was probably the most compelling voice they had on the station. If you're saying goodbye to him that screams cost cutting.

It sounds like they're gonna roll with Arcand and Ottolini in afternoon drive? Good lord. Hope Lou lands on his feet and stays local.

Absolutely hilarious how fast those HS football scores went by

It's the new WEEI Big Mid-Day Show, Co-hosts John Dennis, Curt Schilling, Mitchell Miller, and Chris Nilan

 

[Chevalier du Clavier]

Listening to Merloni on WEEI, he specifically mentions that he won't be doing the show anymore, but he could return to the station to broadcast Sox games.

That would be awful.

Maybe Merloni can go to NESN and they can off Massarotti!

(A guy can dream)
