I understand what DB is saying. He's saying that Rafer being the product of his dad, received an opportunity that he may have otherwise not gotten. My point is that the name is only a part of the equation.

Similarly, Karen Jordan also has a father who has been in the business for a long time. Of course she benefits from it, but I'm sure she also had to work her ass off to prove her ability to do the job.

I hate comments like that. The Weigel name is just a foot in the door. The guy has to have his own degree of talent as well. Furthermore, there isn't a person on this board who would choose not to benefit even the slightest bit from their father's name if they could. That's some borderline hater stuff there.

I'm not trying to be a hater. Some nobody just doesn't get a job at the third largest market in the country if he doesn't share the last name of one of their former popular anchors.


Tell us why Laurence got his job then.

People can hate Loho all they want (I'm not even a fan), but the man has paid his dues. Working weekends, fill-ins, beat reporting, he's worn many hats for over a decade.

Lester Holt's kid and Ponce's kid are both on Channel 5, sometimes at the same time.

I have no hate for Laurence.

And you obviously never read Rafer's bio then. Because he paid far more dues then Laurence ever did.

The man worked a couple years with Dan Hampton. I'd make him president of the network for paying those dues.

I don't hate Leary at all. I just find him to be amusing at times. That's not a compliment. I enjoy his solo gigs. He gets too lap doggy when he's with Dan or Teary. Besides, it's fun playing Leary bingo.

I don't think I can link it from my job, but it's available on the website to listen to. 4th hour of Laurence's show last night.

I forgot to mention Laurence last Saturday. That always gets a fun response.

Do other on-air news personalities get into this little Twitter slap-fights or is it mainly the sports-talk radio guys? I get the impression that Weigel won't get too involved (he doesn't seem to have too much respect for several people at WSCR and I suspect that's a common sentiment in the industry) and Laurence and Coppock will continue to embarrass themselves.

Coppock telling someone they have a huge ego is pretty rich. Not that he's necessarily wrong about Leery, although if I had to guess I'd say Laurence's attitude isn't borne of him being overly impressed with himself as much as it is a product of his insecurity and lack of self awareness. He comes off well when he sticks to the script, so to speak, but any variance from that results in disaster and unintentional comedy. I almost feel bad for him that he doesn't have any friends or family to pull him aside and clue him in. We can't be the only people who see/hear these things and cringe.

On the flip side, Lauren Jiggets last name actually has hurt her thru her career.

No, I was misquoted by @LaurenceWHolmes and represented incorrectly on the radio. But why let facts get in the way of good radio.

@RaferWeigel actually I attacked you professionally, but not until you asserted that Radio guys are less deserving of 1-on-1s than TV guys.


Quote:

.@LaurenceWHolmes there's 2 min left. I said if u were just doing radio why couldn't we stick our mic in & get sound. I wouldn't interrupt u


Quote:
Rafer Weigel ‏@RaferWeigel 10m
.@LaurenceWHolmes I never said u were "just a radio guy". You have a right to 1-on-1's. if u wouldn't SEE the mic couldn't we just jump in?

@RaferWeigel my issue is not w/ a momentary misunderstanding in the locker room. That stuff happens. You know what you said.

What a collection of fucktards. Here's hoping they all line up against a dozen CTA busses for a rousing game of 'Red Rover'.

Weigel is the bigger asswipe in this, but at this point it's two bitches in a verbal slapfight.

Yeah, although the board likes to rail on Holmes, it appears as though he was probably in the right. Probably could have kept it off the radio though.


They're still going at it, by the way. You're right, DT. Someone should be the bigger person and take it out of public eye and settle.


Quote:
Laurence Holmes ‏@LaurenceWHolmes 6m
@RaferWeigel so by that logic. If you have a sit-down, I can come get the audio and put it on radio?


Quote:
Rafer Weigel ‏@RaferWeigel 4m
@LaurenceWHolmes I never said I was right by that logic. I was upset. U had a right. But I never called u "just a radio guy" either.

I don't think Laurence was necessarily "in the right".

Weigel just has to know that he can't make an assumption and expect not to get THAT SHAKEN.

I like when people say "That's why I stay away from Twitter." Saw a bunch of those comments the other day about an article that cited a bunch of racist Miss America tweets. You customize Twitter to who YOU want to follow and read. I don't follow Leary, nor Rafer, so this type of BS won't appear in my feed. My guy Spmack keeps me filled in.

Who the hell is telling Leary that The League is great? It's funny. It accomplishes what it set out to do. Nothing ground breaking. And it's not ONLY about fantasy football.
