I don't know if Josh Miller is responsible for potting his own mic up, or if it's the producer, but no talk show host anywhere starts a sentence without his mic live as much as he does.

yeah they have a button they have to press.

He's endeared himself to me by self deprecating humor, I didn't like him for awhile. That being said, he frequently zones out and isn't all there particularly during the 5-6 hour.

I saw on twitter over the weekend that Jon Burton got a job in Nashville and is leaving The Fan.

Good for JB. Always seemed like a good guy. Not that he was the most talented guy in the world, but I always thought that he got the short end of the stick at 93.7

Good for him. Wasn't the best, but he was really entertaining.

[Pavel Bure]

When is it going to be safe to listen to 93.7 again? Steelers Training camp?

Probably never. It's just gonna be a ton of PITT PITT PITT PITT PITT PITT PITT PIRATES PIRATES PIRATES PIRATES PIRATES PIRATES

I wish Fillaponi was leaving.

Fillaponi was at his most tolerable when he was interacting with JB before/after the updates.

[Streaks House]

Thought JB got a raw deal at that station.
The one guy they had with any energy and they sidelined him to late night updates.

He was awesome on the "Alexander, Burton and Colony morning show". Seriously, how does Poni still have a job there and Mueller buried so late? This Terry Foxx guy who runs the ship at the Fan is really out of touch. The station has some talent, but it is a shame that it seems like it is run like little league baseball, a lot of politics. If you don't drink Terry Foxx's kool aid, good luck there.

DVE, enough with the Anderson Cooper laugh. I swear they play it at least once a day,

I'm sure Filliponi will have reasons as to why DeCastro was a terrible first round pick tonight.

[KennyTheKangaroo]

I'm sure Filliponi will have reasons as to why DeCastro was a terrible first round pick tonight.

filaponi had a topic a few days ago in which he argued pedro would have 30 home runs this year.

man. I'm sure the argument revolved around Pedro being the smarter money bet than signing that Pujols fella too.

The same Filaponi who said two weeks ago that Pedro should not be anywhere near a major league roster?

[IanMoran]

I REALLY want to listen to Filaponi after a Pittsburgh team wins a championship. I'm 100% positive he'll turn it all into a negative and I'm legitimately curious on how he'd do so

I know it'll start out as "So, Pittsburgh sports fans, you finally won a championship..."

I actually just thought of 1 twist he'd probably take. He'd probably start arguing that they AREN'T the city of champions and bring up cities that have won more recently. This would probably occur the night they won it all

So, has Jamie Dixon accepted the LSU job yet?

[Malkamaniac]

So, has Jamie Dixon accepted the LSU job yet?

Madden got crucified for it yesterday and then tried to lay the guilt trip about how he makes mistakes too and he'll never talk about Pitt.

[Troy Loney]

What happened?

[pfim]

What happened?

http://www.pittblather.com/2012/04/27/b ... age-board/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It's not a mistake, it's a flat out fabrication.

[IanMoran]

What happened?

I believe Mark Madden had INSIDE INFO THAT JAMIE DIXON WAS GOING TO LSU, along with a story about Dixon being upset over the Wanny firing? ... when they actually had already hired their head coach a week ago

Yet people still constantly talk about MM rumors

[Troy Loney]

So Madden tried to start a Dixon to LSU rumor after LSU had already hired a coach....lol

[canaan]

and he has the moxy to talk **** on bloggers questioning their professionalism. clownshoes.

Come on his sources didn't fact check or look at the Pitt news for a week. Dude has zero ground to stand on with anything.
