I wonder if you recall years ago when Sal took that shift to get a toe in the door at WGR? Before then he was doing his Coach Sal online show "from his mom's basement" as he would joke. He took a big leap moving his family from Florida. I'd say it paid off for him. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 WGR needs to send both to ‘famous announcers’ school. Voices in radio today are grating upon the ears. Also, get off of my lawn! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he says his son is in sports now and Saturday is the only day he typically has free during the season unless he’s traveling to an away game. Makes sense. 8 minutes ago, pop gun said: Geary is an idiot! Don't like him one bit! It's hard to admit but I can stand Schopp better than I can stand this dummy!

Makes sense. I think Geary sometimes days things for reaction and not sure if he actually believes them He has a tendency to ask a single question but in paragraph form. It's inherent with someone new to the job trying to establish that they are legitimately qualified to ask it. "I am aware of A, B, C, D, E and F so what effect do you think they have on G?" IMO, as a listener, it can get irritating trying to follow an entire monolog that gets connected to a question at the very end. General rule: the questions asked in an interview should not be longer than the responses. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zonabb Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Garbage. That entire channel is loaded with hot summer dumpster garbage. Was forced to listen the other day, can't recall, and I think it was these two morons babbling on about mayonnaise. Good stuff. Friend finely got annoyed and changed the channel (his ride, his call!). So now I guess from avoiding WGR at all cost except driving to games and an occasional instigators moment, I'm down to almost zero WGR55 time. Sweet. Also, the awesomeness of satellite radio makes one wonder why local radio even exists. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t mention it so I’m guessing he will still do it because he said the rest of his job is staying the same. When there was a road game, I think Geary and Dibiasi did that show so not sure who will do it now when Sal is traveling and they are on in the morning. Howard’s kid? Will Ryan Gates come back if Allen turns out to be good? ? Edited July 12, 2019 by YoloinOhio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneaky Joe is cool with me I do listen to the radio pregame some as I am tooling around Sunday mornings if i am not at the stadium, and i always like Howard, he makes me laugh. My only criticism with Howard is sometime he is master of the obvious in his pre- game shows..Nate will sometimes look at some different numbers and look at things that may be a bit outside of the normal "football" stuff guys Howard and my age grew up on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the awesomeness of satellite radio makes one wonder why local radio even exists. I turn on wgr rarely, and it's easier when you expect to get what they put out. I've never called in but I ended up with Monday off and turned it on while I was running errands. It was Geary and some other clown talking about the NBA. I know Buffalo isn't an NBA market, but I was so close to calling in. They are absolute morons, saying teams should do this and that, which would put them way over the salary cap. It wasn't remotely realistic the stuff they were talking about. I find Geary to just be a general dbag. That kid they had doing the night cap orginally I thought was good. And I liked the guy who sung the dumb Sal song who is in Minnesota now. I'll forgive him for that awful rejoin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madbillsfan Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) They don’t watch sports. They research their job while on air. I feel like most of wgr is only there for the paycheck and the status over the other losers in their personal lives. This is doesn’t apply to all.
