They don't like being called "The A-Team" and they sure as hell don't like being associated with Larry's "Tree".

Who the fuck are they? Honestly, I hear the opening of his show probably 1-2 times a week, if he is on, while I am driving home and I can't remember one name.

You listen while driving...in a car? How do you fight the urge to crash into a telephone pole?

I'm listening for workout tips, gym recommendations and ways I can impress women with knowledge of comic book characters.

They are Joe Ostrowski, Chris Tannehill & Herb Lawrence, whose jobs also involve producing the Chicago White Sox Radio Network. When "Mr. Multimedia" also mentions his "A Team", that includes update anchors Connor McKnight & Wayne Randazzo, too.

In addition to the "A Team" theme from the mid '80s, there's also an "A Team" reference during one of those Westwood One/Dial Global Radio Network "Monday Night Football" games in which Kevin Harlan says..."The A team...They knew you were coming."

Larry really sees himself as a guy who has "made it" and now has people that he has created in the industry, thus "Larrys Tree"

First hand discussions

One of the A Team members. 'Yeah, it's like we work for him and we can never be better than him"

One of the members of his tree, who you would not think is on his tree and would deny being on his tree. "The day that guy makes me better is the day I quit"

This story doesn't shock me. Hearing how he does his producer introductions makes you cringe for them. Like he's a king and they are his lowley peasant producers. He gives this vibe like they should feel lucky and honored to work for him. Hearing him speak you know they would hate it because anybody would hate it. He's belittling and patronizing them.

They can't say anything to him. They all fear that Larry would think they are racist if they said they didn't like it. They don't want to work under that uncomfortable environment. That's why Larry's producers bitch about work to Big Fan at bars around Chicago. They want him to say it on CSFMB so Larry reads it here and gets the message.

True that, baby doll (patronizing you only as irony to the topic to emphasise the point. You should smile and not take offense. It's a joke. Repeat!!!! It's a joke).

Actually, even Bernstein doesn't do what Larry does. Yeah, Bernstein belittles and patronizes drink and Goff when they get in arguments. That's cuz he wants to win all the time and will do anything to do so. This includes cutting down his opponents. But he really doesn't act like their boss (even though he basically is), nor does he portend that they should be honored to work for him. He certainly doesn't act like drink and Goff are fruits from his tree even though they are. To be honest, Bernstein doesn't want to be known for spawning drink and Goff. That would offend him. He'd like to think he could create something better.

Now get in the kitchen and make me a chicken pot pie, Spaulding. :wink:

Even the die hard Larry Fan like Krazy Ivan (Even if it is just to annoy everyone) would admit that Larry is not the kingmaker he thinks he is.

It's like some guy at work, making a living ($75K?) starts trying to tell you how to do things and you can maybe, just maybe, one day attain his level?

One person I have not spoken to, but who Larry has placed on his tree, should and could easily overshadow him in the near future. I stress that Larry put him on his tree for no real reason, as he has nothing to do with the guy being there.

Bingo!

Just a guess. I didn't know Larry told Connor that he was on a tree. My god is such a pompus weirdo. Can you imagine Connor's reaction when he hears this? By your description I didn't think you were talking about Larry's producers.

I also think it's funny that Larry has to read here how much his producers hate him. :lol: Dumb ass Larry probably was under the impression that they loved him. That's the problem with being self-loving and delusional. You live a constant state of unawareness. I wonder if Joe O is gonna receive Larry's wrath now that this has been made public? :shock:

So how does this one work? Was Hampton on Larry's tree or was Larry on Hampton's tree?

Also, would one have to take the blame for the failure of the other on this show? Because if Larry takes credit for Connor, he should take the blame for Hampton if Larry considered Hampton to be on his tree. Wouldn't that stand to reason? Larry would also have to take the blame for Hampton being a racist. :shock: Talk about irony!!!!

To Larry's producers: Flash this picture to Larry every time he Lords over you and makes you guys feel small. That's how you can deflate his enormous ego. That's how you can get even.

If Larry ever told Hampton that he was on his tree, Hamp would uproot an actual tree and beat Larry to death with it. Or he would tell Larry that he was raised in a family where they didn't believe in "mixed trees" and would tell Larry not to say this to people lest they get the wrong idea about him.
