If they had hired Rozner, I never would have turned on the station in that slot again.

 

As it is, when he hosts as a guest I immediately PTFB.

 

The only 2 guys that I can think of that have been worse are Rosenbloom and Sean Salisbury (seriously do you remember how awful that show was?)

Mariotti was pretty bad too.

What do you think he makes? Probably a decent living for a fun job.

 

I literally have no idea. Anywhere from $50k to $150k wouldn't surprise me. If it's in the top half of that range, he'll be around forever, lower half, I could see him bouncing. Again, though, I couldn't have less of an idea about the non on-air talent salary scale.

When does Abbatacola quit The Score? He's clearly never getting a meaningful on air slot there.

 

Honestly, I don't really care, because I find him annoying and terrible.

I don't think too many people would care, just wondering when enough is enough for him. Not like he has a lot of options, though, I'm sure.

Yeah, he's not funny and not smart, and he tries really hard to appear to be both of those things.

He's the classic case of a station giving a producer his own show and it not working. Happens here all the time

Is there a purpose to Terry Boers? I don't think I've ever heard him disagree with Bernstein once, and lately he has just been repeating stuff Bernstein says verbatim right after he says it.

Terry rarely disagrees with Dan. Lately he's been repeating Dan? For years he has. I wouldn't mind Rozner getting the afternoon gig with Dan. It's really true that Terry is on an ISDN line from his house a fair amount, right?

Terry Boers being weird and Bernstein laughing with him >>>>>>> Bernstein baiting callers so he can yell at them.

I don't disagree with that assessment, but my point still stands lol. You definitely wish they'd take a smart caller or two every once in awhile instead of screening for asshats, but that's their schtick.

When Boers leaves the show, I'd be stunned beyond belief if it wasn't Laurence Holmes or Matt Abbatacola that takes over.

It'll be Laurence. Guaranteed. Unless he wants to keep his 120 Sports gig and night time slot.

Right, the only reason it wouldn't be Holmes would be if he turned it down, but he loves Dan so much, I don't see that happening.

Just stay away from all of it. Life will be better.

Yeah can you play podcasts in your car? The Effectively Wild season preview series is almost certainly way better than that crap.

I'll never listen to that again either. Holmes would basically be another version of Boers, just agreeing with everything that Bernstein says, minus the weird noises.
