I told you Larry Holmes wasn't getting the full time NBC job. He can thank Mitch Rosen for still being on the Score. If Mitch wasn't his former agent he would be where old Score hosts who get fired go. A small town in the US talking sports.

So I will ask you again here since you needed a separate thread for it...

Is that worse than a major market making podcasts no one listens to?

Which is far more than you will ever accomplish in the business (or me for that matter).

I have no idea why you think anyone cares what you have to say about anything regarding radio. Please go back to interviewing athletes no one has heard of for 30 years and leave it at that.

I thought LoHo did a fair job on TV. Maybe they want another "skirt".

Larry Holmes was a heavyweight boxing great. Beat Ali in 1980 in 15 rounds to retain the heavyweight title. You probably meant Laurence Holmes, Spada.

Hey, if that's what it takes, Larry has a nice little skirt to wear on special occasions.

Must have been the yellow teeth, and too much blinking of the eyes.

He is not good on TV.

Saw him on NBC for the first time last night. A little too screechy for me. It is like is voice was up an octave or two over what it is on the radio. He was, though, every bit as witty.

He won't respond do you. He never does. He just pimps his crappy show, rips on anybody with a real job in media, and then doesn't pay his WSCR bills. Tis the life of an ambulance chaser.

Adamle remains incredibly bad and LoHo remains an idiot.

I think he did everything below average, the one time I saw him.

He has some bad teeth for TV, he has a constant 5 Shadow.

All that said, I wish he got the job and moved on.

Cheryl Scott probably had him fired...

Because she couldn't concentrate on her work with such a chiseled specimen of a man around her.

Larry talking soccer. Unprecedented. Department of Defense working day and night to figure out a way this can be weaponized. It would redefine war as we know it if they succeed.

Did Cheryl seek a restraining order against Laurence? I'm still creeped out by the sight of Paula Faris on her laptop with Holmes looking over her shoulder when "Sports Sunday" was expanded following NBC's "Sunday Night Football" a couple years ago going to commercial break...
