Given the details of his CC assignments and the nature of the market right now, I would bet that Stan did get it in writing.Ned Braden wrote:That's what he gets for not welcoming you to The Machine.PghSkins wrote:LMAO Seibel got his own name wrong this morning. "This is John Sobel."
BTW ... I doubt Stan actually signed anything to work part time. He's still liable to show up on The Fan in a month or 3.

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
I think that some of the best on air talents on the Fan are John Phillips and Colin Dunlop, I wish they had a drive time show together instead of Seibel and Starkey. I have an hour plus commute home and I've been listening to the radio most days instead of listening to their schtick. The 5:40 free for all is getting to the point of ridiculousness. I got into a text argument with Starkey over the summer and can't listen to him without recalling his arrogance. Seibel was supposed to be a bigtime pickup from ESPN but he's running out of things to say and is becoming weird.

Worse than that -- he's a Madden wanna-be.viva la ben wrote:Dunlap is a dope.
He covers the crap beats at the P-G (WVU football, Duquesne basketball) so how would be know anything about the major teams in town?

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
Yeah that's not an enviable assignment. I also think the golf writers and HS sports writers have crappy assignments as well. Dragging info out of 16 year olds for interviews has got to suck.

dunlap does not tolerate yinzer speculation/overreaction, so he probably shouldnt be involved in talk radio

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
i wish they took less calls, or at least less idiot calls. i dont think they really have a screener find out exactly what people are planning to say. if someone has something intelligent to say then great. all I heard on the radio last night was people still calling in about Ben in Georgia.

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
Why does every radio announcer change the tone of their voice right before they're about to play back an interview? It goes right through me.

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
Anyone hear Gianotti lose it on that guy last night. He called in to complain about ben in georgia, etc. and was like the 3rd call in a row about that. Gianotti just blew up for like 3 minutes about how everyone needs to move on. Even Dunlap was pretty speechless.

Tom Grimm... stop putting this guy on air. All he does is rant for a half hour at a time with no real point. He doesn't take calls, he doesn't understand sports to the point of him being able to discuss them, he's just terrible.

Re: 93.7 The Fan Now On
I think I might be officially done with this station since I heard Bubba's voice. I've been one of the bigger supporters here, just being happy with the fact that we had a FM sports talk station. Now, I'm enraged.

I had never heard of that person before this morning, yet I know more about his junk than anyone's but my own.
