I wouldn't touch talk radio for sports for anything - especially the god-awful morning shows.

The new lame fat guy from the deep south is really lame. I think he is on in the afternoons.

He got into a rant with a die hard eagles caller, who was just basically saying we have never won the SB....anyway he misquoted 3 things with the most glaring being stability at QB vs. what goes on in Dallas.

I called in to correct and he promptly hung up on me.

I am a NY transplant living in the greater Philly area, if thats what one calls Delaware :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

I find Rob Ellis the best on radio, not the deepest when it comes to puck but very fair to callers and def. not disrespectful.

Ever since that Greensburg rag entered the Pittsburgh marketplace the media has gone to crap there even more.

Media in most places is awful - there's always people that fans don't like - it's everywhere

In the Philly area - Delaware is appreciated for Total Wine and no state sales tax, but we definitely don't include it in the greater Philly area like South Jersey.


And, Rob Ellis is a good host. He knows his stuff and runs a fun show. If I'm on the road when his show is on, I might tune in. Glen Macnow was another guy I liked but he's off the air last I knew.

Carchidi is my least favorite writer. He's lazy and doesn't seem to put much effort into his stories. Still, I find him to be an outlier as far as print media goes.

I like Giroux but he isn't at Crosby's level. And, if you have to put "#NotAHomer" as part of your tweet, you know what..............you're a homer.

What is Phantom Mans Phan consensus on the Umberger / Scottie Hairbag Hartnall swap?

Before FN folded, I posted a comment when Umberger was released saying something to the effect that I will believe things are getting better in the Flyers front office if Hextall doesn't pick him up. A couple days later the deal was done. I know Hextall is in a jam with the contracts that Holmgren put together but this made no sense to me.

Don't know what other Flyers fans think of it.

That's really what made the tweet so incredibly great.


Also, the Lecavalier one was just funny because he thought Vinny was the missing piece. "Ah! All is well! Vinny is heeerrrre!"
