I could be wrong but I thought the point of the roast was to bust his chops but ultimately have it turn into a walk down memory lane type thing. At the end of the day, a few laughs and everyone feels nice.

Maybe a WGR Roast, but in the traditional sense a roast is not really a walk down memory lane.  Even so, there's really not a lot to bust his chops about.  He's a very well-liked player and there really isn't much you can make fun of him about.  Not a lot of material there - which is why I think he wasn't the best choice

Thank you - finally someone that understand comedy and what I was trying to say.  I like Eric Wood and listened to him every week he's been on WGR the past two seasons.  He's an insightful guy but not really a funny storyteller.  Same thing with Aaron Williams.  

 

Fitzpatrick IS pretty funny.  He might be the only presenter worth hearing

I’d rather Jeff Ross and Lisa Lampanelli read the Corey McIntyre story and then unleash on him!!

 

On a side note I saw Chris Rock a few months back and Jeff Ross was the emcee. He randomly invited people on stage to be roasted. He destroyed them!! It was hilarious.

Who cares unless you're in the audience? There could be plenty to laugh about from the people who know him well and it depends on how good the roasters are in addition to what Fred comes back with.

I think you've given us ample evidence in this thread that you care one way or another.

I got what you were trying to say but Buffalo isn't roasting Rex Ryan. He isn't beloved enough.. we don't give 2 *****...

 

same with 1 year of TO.

 

They are roasting Fred because he is beloved...

 

Brian Mooreman was pretty beloved here lol

 

hed be great to roast with all the punter jokes and you can pay homage to Sean Taylor as well by mentioning when he almost decapitated him

Yep.

 

Who's first up on the TBD Roast schedule?

Expand  

Now that’s an inspired thread topic. Gotta be Scott, right? But no matter who’s the first, there will be no shortage of material, real or made up.

But you don't really roast someone because they are beloved.  You roast someone who can you laugh at.  You can't really laugh much at Fred.

 

I would agree that there is more material with Moorman.  Downside is, he's not as a big of a name to sell tickets.

I’m definitely not losing sleep over it- just thought the OP was getting a harder time than deserved... in part because people missed his point. Which wasn’t totally off base.

 

Seems you may be more intense on this than anyone here.

No it needs to be Dunkirk Don.  Most polarizing guy at TBD

As per usual you miss the point. Rabbitt hole inanity is your specialty

Intense? Nah. His point doesn't make any sense IMO.

Forget it Jake, it's Mr. Copy-Paste.

 

He can't agree to disagree on a topic about an ex-player roast, and he doesn't even care about it!  Just ask him and his 8 posts on the subject.
