"... At the same time I haven't listened to the show in the last few months for more than a few minutes because his schtick just doesn't interest me right now and I'm not commuting in the evening. I've said this before but Felger is better when he has someone that isn't too lazy to challenge him. Mazz has been beaten down for so long that it isn't worth his time or effort any more and that's disappointing so he's just happy with the paycheck. Murray flat out sucks."
Thats where I'm at-its boring uninspired radio and Mazz just doesn't push back on Felger's contrarian poke you in the eye approach. I found listening to Felger too much like sitting in my NJ bar after the '03 ALCS and listening to pink-hat MFY fans bust my balls, I took it for awhile, but I needed a TO before I killed someone.
A few weeks ago I tuned in and Beetle did a show with Felger and he had the heft and inclination to be a good counterweight to Felger's BS and pushed Felger into a more rational discussion, I thought it was pretty good radio. IMO Felger needs his Mad Dog, but Mazz as you note, ain't it.
