Definitely. Thought David Todd was pretty good last year. He wasn't afraid to be critical, at least on Twitter.

Zangrilli is kind of weird too. He had a pretty bad Twitter war with somebody not too long ago and came off as crazy. Also he quit the Altoona Curve in the middle of the game as their radio play by play guy.

@ThePoniExpress
@PG_JerryMicco Was it not valuable to readers of @genecollier column to know that the "radio" quotes from Stark came from @937theFan?
@ThePoniExpress
@PG_JerryMicco What are the current standards? Would it be enough to take a quote from a column and say I found it in the paper?
Looks like even more controversy in Yinz sports media...DK can't engage Paul Zeise and Seth Rohrabaugh.

From what I gathered, it looks like PG employees are being muzzled communicating with certain personalities over Twitter...perhaps this stems from the Poni-Collier-Micco situation, which I'm purely speculating on. Whether or not this is the case, it appears that SOMETHING took place.

I think people need to troll Vinnie Monchichi tmw about the Thunder winning since he hates them being a Seattle guy.

The fact that news companies take twitter this seriously shows how archaic their business strategy really is.

He was on over the weekend and he must have been taking a **** or doing something nefarious during a break because when he came back on he was so short of breath.

Todays morning show highlight was someone shouting "BALLS" over the traffic report update.

Yes, Dejan is forbidden to talk to Rorbaugh as is Dunlap over social media I believe due to their prior affiliations with the PG and Seth's current employment there.

Quick Zeise impression:

DUH YEAH HEY I'M PAUL ZEISE AND WHAT NOT JAMIE DIXON DUR UHH I LOVE WHITESNAKE SO WHAT NOT AND THEN EJ BORGHETTI SO THE GREENTREE SUMMER LEAGUE TODD GRAHAM.

Per Colin Dunlap's Twitter account:

"There is the Charlie Morton news, and then there is this - apparently Lacee Collins is no longer working at Root Sports."
