    So long, Framingham Lou (and other WEEI discussions)

    I like your train of thought re: Jones. He had one of the better 98 Mile submissions a few years ago, so he has a funny, engaging side to him as well.

    So long, Framingham Lou (and other WEEI discussions)

    Who knows if they are accurate, but Fred is definitely dealing with ongoing Family Court issues, as he admitted that he had to go to court directly after the show recently. On the flip side, he also just got back from a trip with his son to Atlantis, so he can't be doing THAT bad.

    So long, Framingham Lou (and other WEEI discussions)

    Huge grain of salt, as it's coming from Kirk. But if Rich was actually that unhappy working with Fred and that situation, I can absolutely understand him turning down that much money to go somewhere for much less. Having said that, I do agree that a Rich/Gresh show does not sound good at all...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    That's certainly fair! But, jeesh, Opening Day??

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    It's so forced and cringy. And I don't even know half of the women they are referring to. Toyota lady? The "other" Progressive ad lady? Poor Hardy just seems to be doing his best to play along to appease Fred. Meanwhile, it's Opening Day -- and granted the Sox look to be not so good this year to...

    So long, Framingham Lou (and other WEEI discussions)

    EDIT: Looks like that won't be the case. At least we now know what Rich has been up to!

    Fred punching down on podcasts again today, huh?

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

    Interesting rant during the opening hour by Felger about this article below in which players seek to blame rule changes like the pitch clock for causing injuries as opposed to what Felger firmly believes the blame should be squarely put on analytics...

    Thoughts about media types who don't have their own threads

    I have a feeling Portnoy approached him with an offer he couldn’t refuse. Otherwise, this seems like an odd move.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    I missed this take? What were they saying? Also, Fred constantly going on rants about the Pats possibly drafting Marvin Harrison Jr. during every Pats draft talk segment is getting tiresome. We get it, dude. The Lions past draft picks scarred you for life. I'm still listening out of sheer...

    Milan Lucic arrested after domestic incident - on indefinite leave from Bruins

    I didn't hear the audio of the 911 call that was apparently played in court, but it sounds like it didn't meet the "ongoing emergency" exception per the judge's ruling. It also doesn't sound like the Commonwealth pushed hard to prosecute this case though. I hope Lucic and his wife find peace...

    Rethinking Barstool?

    Can someone tell me what the stakes were behind this 41 free throws in a row stream they have been doing? Looks like they finally ended it.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    This is all just speculation from me: but I wonder if this all goes back to COVID. It really feels like the dynamic of the show and Rich himself started to change. He definitely became a bit more serious and reclusive during that time period (for very justifiable reasons) that it makes you...

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    And mostly ALL negative. The posters all seem articulate and inciteful too. Bad sign for the show.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Great thread. Thank you for sharing the link. I have to admit: I'm starting to drift away from the show little bit by little bit. It's just not the same without Rich's structured bits and format. Hardy seems overwhelmed by Fred, and Wallach is...Wallach. I will continue to give it a little more...

    We're onto Beetle and Zolak: The Midday Thread

    What?? Please explain this to me. No seriously: fascinated to hear an explanation.

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Speaking of Rich, has he announced anything new yet?

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    Yeah, I don't think it's fair to say that Rich tried to get Fred "fired". Believe me: Fred would have made sure to point that out!

    Toucher and Hardy: The new 98.5 morning show

    It doesn’t sound like Rich was a very popular guy behind the scenes there, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they made the right decision about which horse to back to be on the air.

    Mayo: Season 1

    Mayo is hitting a home run with this press conference so far, IMO.
