todd Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I'd like to see him replaced with someone who has solid football opinions based on expertise & knowledge and does solid research. You know, like some of the people who were fired from the D&C a few years ago. Bob Matthews takes retirement package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaska Darin Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I've been reading Matthews since I was a kid. That's going to be weird, even if his "takes" over the last decade border on insanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Yeah, I remember his call-in show on WHAM or whatever in the early 90s. I used to listen and call in when I was just a kid, like 12-13. Much of his work as long as I can remember now has seemed pretty superficial and light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickedface Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 i wasn't really a huge fan of his. pitoniak would be a great replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Is Fred Smerlas going with him? TFG they are putting thi horse out to pasture, he's been put of touch for 20 years. Pitoniak would be a nice replacement but I'm not sure those wounds can mended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajzepp Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Yeah, I remember his call-in show on WHAM or whatever in the early 90s. I used to listen and call in when I was just a kid, like 12-13. Much of his work as long as I can remember now has seemed pretty superficial and light. He was doing that at least as far back as the mid to late 80s, cause I remember my buddy and I listening to his show and calling in a few times. I haven't paid as much attention to him over the last few years, but based on the stuff of his I've seen others post on TBD, it's time for Bob to call it a career. I wish the guy well.

Its funny that he said that and then followed up by mentioning Maiorana. I don't think there are two sports columnists farther apart in talent and being "out of touch" than Matthews and Maiorana the last few years.

The Cincinnati Kid Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I stopped reading the D&C because of Matthews. I won't miss him and his asinine writing. Good riddance. Don't let the door hit you on your way out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
