Holy shit, that segment is one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time. It was like half of Adolfo's brain shut down when he ws trying to keep up with the action. Incredible stuff.jimv said:I can't figure out the accent Adolfo uses while doing play by play, its some sort of mush mouth attempt at major-market-radio-announcer-voice. Hilarious. I look forward to Adolfo's calls of future sporting events
smastroyin said:Can I assume the reason that they kept harping on debunking the idea of the "young players being overwhelmed by the atmosphere in Montreal" is that F&M were pushing it in the afternoon?
Just seemed weird that they were so fixated on it, both in the Boychuk interview then today with Jaffe this morning.

I heard Zolak railing against the idea, but I don't know where it originally comes from.
On another note, someone from WEEI just called the show to call them out on replaying bits. It was weird, and when they called him out on being from WEEI he didn't really know what to say.
Rusty13 said:One of their best bits ever. I can't wait to get a link to that.
Fixed that for ya.jimv said:I hope Ray Hudson is a regular during the World SERIES

Was it the clip about the sports debate? That was a replay of an old segment. Rich ran a highlight tape because it is their 9th anniversary this week during the long 8:00 segment.John Marzano Olympic Hero said:Fred did a pretty good job taking down Kirk Minnihane and Dennis and Callahan. I got into the middle of segment around 8:20-ish and it was really great.

NickEsasky said:Fred also said he wouldn't have an issue if Amendola had hung up on someone like them or F&M who might ask some annoying questions. His issue was with him hanging up on a guy like Jones who is a "pro" and not into playing "gotcha" or driving controversy.
Really? I've never heard that listening to him. I can't speak for his time on ESPN. I do t listen to him that much though.riboflav said:I thought Adam Jones epitomizes everything that is wrong with sports radio. I don't listen to him but others have said he's a blowhard who just rips players and coaches constantly with his hot sports takes.
The fact that Amendola never called back would suggest he hung up intentionally.
John Marzano Olympic Hero said:He wasn't too bad, actually. That being said, Fred can be a bit of a dick sometimes.
The weird thing is Wallach has been in the industry for decades, I'm not sure why being on the air for five minutes by himself would be that huge of a deal for him. I'm sure that he's done radio without a partner before. Adolfo, yeah, I can see him getting nervous and tongue-tied, but Wallach? I'm not seeing the big deal.
He's horrible. I made it through about five minutes this morning before I had to shut it off. It's a close call between Tanguay and Mike Adams for the most intolerable sports "personality." I would rather listen to Gresh.erfus said:I like T&R but if there were an alternative that focused 99% on sports stuff without the baggage that D&C bring, I'd probably listen more to that alternative.
This morning's show with Tanguay filling in for Rich was unlistenable. Gary is really difficult to tolerate.

I would honestly rather listen to commercials than Gary Tanguay.
True, but the 15 minutes or so I listened to included Fred ranting about his wife and kids - funny stuff. Wish Rich was there, he has the ability to goad Fred into extending the rant to ridiculous lengths. Gary, on the other hand is a complete buzzkillerfus said:I like T&R but if there were an alternative that focused 99% on sports stuff without the baggage that D&C bring, I'd probably listen more to that alternative.
