    Kirk and Callahan: Done

    Wait...did they literally not talk the Red Sox at all last season, or does he just mean they didn’t talk about them much at all?

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    I think he wears it because he’s balding and, despite the tough-guy act, it seems like the guy has zero self-confidence deep down.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    When he was on TV during the playoffs postgame, he was actually pretty good — generally very positive and even some of his criticism seemed pretty fair and genuine. It’s a shame that he’s already back to his persona, but I guess we shouldn’t be surprised. Let’s face it — even a 119-win...

    What's wrong with Boston Sports Radio?

    I’m not even sure how anyone can get mad at Adam Jones. The guy is so over the top and so desperate for attention that I genuinely almost feel sorry for the guy at this point.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    When Mazz was on WEEI many years ago, he was actually very reasonable and basically never resorted to schtick and hot takes like he does now. It’s too bad that guy is never coming back.

    What's wrong with Boston Sports Radio?

    When the Sox ultimately do clinch the AL East, who will be the first media member to complain they celebrated too hard? (Completely ignoring the fact that all teams celebrate division titles.)

    Kirk and Callahan: Done

    Maybe I’m just cynical, but I’m not sure I buy this notion that “it took a lot of balls to do this.” As far as I’m concerned, this is another media guy talking about his favorite subject: himself. Also, I feel as though this could be a tactical move to try and get a free pass next time he says...

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    I almost feel bad for Adam Jones at this point. This guy is trying so hard to be outrageous that to me it’s not even annoying — it’s just downright laughable at this point. Even Skip Bayless would probably tell him to tone it down.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    I wouldn’t be shocked if the hosts at 98.5 actually flipped the script going forward, completely ignoring they’ve mocked the Red Sox the whole season. I could see them setting them up to fail, talking about how they are vastly superior to everyone else in baseball and how anything short of an...

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Mazz is just as brutal on Twitter. If the Red Sox do something well, he’s mostly nowhere to be found. Anything that he perceives as a negative? His Twitter mysteriously works again. He was all over the Yankees trading for Britton last night.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    I rarely ever listen anymore, but am I correct in saying a few years ago that it seemed Murray was a lot more rational and tolerable? If that’s the case, I wonder if being around all the negativity has just made him miserable. Or maybe it’s just all an act. Either way, it’s insufferable.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Machado is a good player, but I bet Felger, Mazz, Cafardo, etc., don’t even realize he had a down year last year. His career OBP is also only .329. He does a lot of things well — and has had some very good seasons — but they act like he’s Mike Trout.

    Giancarlo Stanton Traded To Yankees

    Heyman reports the Yanks-Marlins have a deal in place.

    Felger and Mazz - Creating False Naratives one day at a time

    Stewart is a huge wrestling fan, so I can’t help but think he’s just playing a character. Regardless, he’s insufferable and his voice alone is annoying.
