THIS IS A RUMOR - Someone called in saying that he knows someone who works inside with the fins. So it has to be true lol We are looking at signing Jason Taylor 2 years 2 mill but Taylor wants 4 mill Looking at trading for Tony Gonzalez ( I don't see this) something posted in another thread (this is not info from the guy that called in) Hardkorexxx -
Hmm...perhaps Shou called in with the Gonzalez trade rumor... Bummer though, I'd like to see some of those moves, both places have new regimes and maybe want to move some players...but...that seems a bit overwrought.
People who "know things" dont call in and broadcast it to radio shows. None of those are realistic IMO although I would love to have Gonzo for a couple years. But with the arrival of Cassell I think he is a little more comfortable in KC.
Sounds like a bunch of crap to me. 790 is about the last place in the world that news is going to break from.
FTR......why did someone rate this thread 1 star??? he is just mentioning what he heard over the radio....why should his thread get the **** rating? maybe if he said "hey guys i know someone and were goin after gonzalez and taylor" but just for being the messenger?!?! thats weak......
Dont have the privelage of Dolphins talk radio up here. But from the sounds of things from you and others Im not missing a whole lot.
It would be my bet, based on 790's past, that someone working with them is the "someone that called in" with inside info. That station if run by clowns and they'd say anything to make them seem like the place "insiders" would call when I know for a fact that most from the Phins organization pretty much wants NOTHING to do with them.
560 QAM (Joe Rose) also mentioned something about Gonzo, Taylor and Bailey. So it could just be one guy spreading rumors.
now lets all start with the QAM bashing......oh....what? they are dolphins flagship so the homers love it right? haha....believe me i know from being employeed by both stations.....they are both run by clowns.....
http://dolphins.wqam.com/ This is the official AM sports station paired with the Dolphins and you can listen online anytime you want bro.
Maybe but 790, the illustrious staff they chose and especially that weasel owner takes the term clown to new levels.
There's where are differences lie. To me Lebby is a first rate idiot. He is a Jerry Springer type sports journalist. It's all about shock and BS rather than actual sports talk. Not my style at all. I respect him about as much as the garden slug outside my window. Don't get me started on the stereotyped loud mouthed NY'er with little to say in Sid Rosenberg. Can't stand either of them I'll give you Sedano though. He's good but not good enough to save that station in my eyes.
see i work in sports radio.....i hear the cliche talk sports alll ****innggggggg dayyyyy.....so hearing a funny spin to it, with a non-serious approach is why i love lebbys show.....and people either love it or despise it....no doubt. sid is annoying....but funny and knows his ****, and doesnt speak thru aqua glasses....
except champ is 30.......and can still play at a high level.....him next to will allen would make us better....no doubt... not even close to the same as brett favre.
I think I have rarely seen such bold and completely fabricated BS. I almost want to say it's like, beautiful. I mean, to just completely make sh-t up like that, just shooting from the hip, and claim it's from a guy you know that works in the Fins organization. I love it.
Not really. At this point, I'd much rather have Darrelle Revis than 30 year old coming off a major injury in Bailey. He isn't what he used to be.
god jet fans need new material...... get ready for kellen...............or.....who is your quaterback?!
Kellen. You should watch the second game between our teams from the 2007 season, you'll remember him quite nicely.
I haven't listened to 790 in years, but the crap that LeBetard was putting out there was just ... I don't know, maybe juvenile and asinine come close to describing it. It sounded like it was generated by a silly 11 year old kid: "what sports cereal would Jason Taylor be?", "robot baseball", and they would do entire shows on this. I mean, really, that's pretty damned lame. QAM has its lameness as well, i.e. Neil Rogers.
Coincidentally, those are the only two shows on either station that actually have more than like a dozen people listening at any time.
Because Leb's show is actually entertaining. If I want talking heads spewing stats and giving me the news I'll watch Sportscenter. I listen to Leb for a different perspective. It's like a radio version of Deadspin.
That's the problem though. He offers no perspective except for pointless rants about nothing. If I wan't that type of entertainment I'll watch South Park.
