A few counter points to this. 1) His voice and manner of speech is like nails on a chalkboard for me. 2) His anecdotes leave a LOT to be desired, and mostly serve as namedropping with very little relevance, and 3) Any time he talks about anything besides football, he has no depth of knowledge on the subject. It's mostly cursory knowledge, and sometimes, he can't even get names right (happened a couple of times with the Bruins)
And as to why they're going in depth over the Pats roster today, when " no-one knows if there will even be an NFL season in 2011.", it's because by all reports, we're driving full speed right AT an agreement, and for the first time, we have reported hard numbers as to the Salary Cap and Floor. We're long past the Celtics, and even now, what Bruins are we gonna talk? Felger might be able to intelligently discuss the NHL Awards for tonight, but is Maz? it's a good time to talk Pats. You're not gonna do 4 hours of only Sox
