My Dunks drive this morning listened to Felger & Ty again and takeaway

Felger who’s never seen Bussi play and wouldn’t be able to pick him out of lineup would rather go with him over Ullmark

(Of course this is silly - if Felger bank account was on the line with winning one playoff game I’d guess he would pick Ullmark )

Also not sure where Ty showed no knowledge of out of town hockey on this

Appreciate any help in where I missed this
felger is just thinking like a diehard bs fan.
hes seen ullmark shit the bed 2 playoff years in a row after having excellent regular seasons.

Greg Hill actually seems like a pretty decent talk show host. I don't get the sense people hate him like so many other hosts in the business. I just wonder if a strong #2 could really propel his show. I don't listen enough to have a true sense of the show dynamics though.
I listen to wake up to - it’s silly and kind of a flawed group but it’s not drama and I never feel ‘ugh’ and have to turn unless vaccine talk. They mispronounce words and their sports knowledge is not very good but they entertain and I like their regular guests

They talk a lot about stuff I’d get at home or work with the gals so I like that

98.5 was upbeat because of Rich - Fred was the opposite so not sure how this goes

I hope well- Hardy is one of my favorites and far and away would be most knowledgeable on either station - Keefe I’m sure wants to see his kids grow up but maybe he does from home which solves that

Mike Mutnansky I liked a lot - he blows away Joe Murray. Murray seems like a great guy to hit Supremes in Danvers or Nick’s in Beverly (my top two) for a super beef three-way but he’s piss poor on sports

Keefe Hardy & Mego would be able to balance zany with sports and be upbeat for the stuck in traffic crowd who want to avoid listening to Fred’s issues

She should be fired.

he did.
we were up 3 1.
he muffed the ot goal.
then he self destructed in game 6
1. The onetime goal was a collaborative effort on a mix up between Grzelcyk playing off side
2. He suffered a shoulder/back Injury at 11 minute mark making that seal/sphinx like save

He should not have been in game 6 and the training staff caught shit for ok him

Thru gsme 4 he had a 3-1 record and 936 save percentage and first star in game 1 and 4 home and away

If you watch game 6 keep an eye on Clifton

Ullmark could neither move up or down or lift his catching hand - i can’t believe they let him play as that game 5 injury was on top of the lower body when Tom Wilson fell on him last home game

3-1 936 sv and 2 first star is not shitting the bed

An original HF member a month ago told me he was with one of the players and said Ullmark got hurt in game 5 and should not have played - it was bad and added the staff part

People like to crap on Ullmark which is pathetic but I know how sports works always have to be hating someone

Light-hearted works - I like their guests : McCourty, Milbury, McDonagh and Nick Kostas - Ty Law as well. It’s very entertaining and I think they all can be annoying which works to their advantage

I honestly think the dynamic with Fred and Dan Roche is something that could really work since they're polar opposites in terms of attitude. The only issue is that they wouldn't have the production or the pretape segments that Rich did and that someone like Hardy could provide. But in terms of banter I'd be all for Toucher & Roche.

I’d rather pry my own fingernails off with an oyster knife than listed to Fred and Roche as a morning show.

No one more wrong than this guy Haggs

Roche is a nice guy but a boring drip

Fred again spent the first 20 minutes of the show today rehashing the events of the past year.

He also mentioned that he has Google alerts set up for when someone looks him up, and that he sees what gets posted about him on message boards.

I just threw up in my mouth a little. Talk about a manic depressive morning show.
Yeah, that's must miss radio. Fred pissing and moaning about his shitty life is already bad on it's own. You add in that shit dick Kirk, and it's beyond insufferable. Be fitting that the only guy who'd want that chair is also a raving asshole. Fred deserves that.

Joe Murray in the extra seat this morning. Aside from RJ they still haven’t had any actual candidates in with Fred. Gotta wonder if it’s a case if nobody wanting to work either Fred

Chad Finn article on Sunday says he expects Hardy to get the spot.

Am I the only one who didn't know that Slainte and Pete Maguire have a podcast together? Talk about cut from the same cloth.
