The Bills don't leak information since Beane and McD took over, especially PII (personal medical related information). This is a good thing.

We’re not asking to know their cholesterol levels or BMI. A guy gets concussed, which is PII, and it’s open info.

I don't seek out Sal, really don't have time to listen to lots of audio, but he is usually on the WGR 550 morning show for a half hour, and the guy is so angry and argumentative.  It's a tough listen.  What happened to this guy?  He was always the positive light in a dark cloud when the Bills weren't very good.  He was a guy that I would look for his stuff that he would post when he lived in Florida.  He seems to be getting more condescending and wanting to constantly pick fights with everyone.  Not just the callers, but also the other hosts. 

 

He needs a reset or something, but who would want to listen to someone that like constantly?

 

Is my opinion out of line?  The segment this morning and yesterday were embarrassing for him. 

 

He got more popular and it's gone to his head.  When he was up and coming he was pretty respectful.  It was a good change from the 3pm idiots.  Now he is just like them. Sal is a shill but his attitude towards callers is more like the 3pm idiots.

Haha yep, I noticed that. Weeks 3 and 4 when the team was rolling and people were realising actually Bernard can play (and actually he really can, even in the down turn for the most part he has played well) suddenly he started slipping in this "Edmunds wasn't an impact player and he wasn't a difference maker." When for the last two year especially he'd been a "you just can't see the difference he makes without breaking down the film" guy. 

 

My favorites... "he is just doing what McD wants him to do"  "he eats up the middle and no one throws his way," meanwhile the receiver run right behind him in his zone coverage and he doesn't even move while the pass gets completed.

Tremaine defenders were the ultimate gaslighters.   You know what you were seeing with your own eyes, but they would stand logic on its head.    Always enjoyed the defenders who would cite their football background of HS football or division 3 college like they were Belichick or something.

Sal is miserable. Constantly reminding guests and hosts that he "works for the Bills" and "I'm on the field for games"....cool, dude. I generally like the other WGR hosts but Sal is the worst. Can never be wrong either.

I bet there are plenty of roadies and other people who travel with bands and are on the stage in the background, doesn't make them musicians.  Sal isn't much different than the guy on a late night infomercial, he's a paid pitch man.

Sal loves hearing himself talk. He also played and coached high school football so he is an expert. I would love to see his reaction to this thread.


I like Sal on the morning show but can’t deal with him talking to himself on his own show.  And now with Joe on there with him, it’s even worse. Joe will say words for 90 seconds hoping there’s 10 seconds of coherent thought worth commenting on.

I get where your coming from with Mike (Schop)for sure - Sal used to be great and now he cuts people off and states you can call but if you disagree he jumps down your throat - but bulldog? Come on man- love the guy - I may be super impartial though because he reminds me of a friend that passed away

Schop and the Bulldog should be fired.

I dont mind him when he is by himself honestly, but together the show is just trash.

Personally, I don't know Sal, so I would rather not comment on him in that aspect.  Professionally, I slowly lost interest in listening to him.  I loved him back in the day, it seemed he was being himself.  Now, he's unlistenable, in my opinion.  I get he has to keep fans interested, but I know many who have balked listening to him as well.  I'm sure he had to change things up to get clicks, but not interested in his take anymore.

WGR is hard to listen to most of the time. None of the hosts have a strong grasp of the english language, proper punctuation, and verbage.

 

When I continually hear "you know" every other sentence, I change the channel. Almost all the on-air hosts are guilty of it, and Jeremy White is the worst.

 

Next time you listen, pay attention to how many times a minute you hear "you know." 

 

I find it hard to take anyone serious when they speak like a junior high student, and not like a paid, speaking professional.

No.  I feel kind of badly for the guy, actually.  He seems to identify as the “Bills sideline reporter.”  There’s a lot more to someone than their job, irrespective of whether they’re lugging trash or quarterbacking the Bills.   I hope I never identify by how I earn a paycheck and support my family. 

Agreed. Although I had some good jobs that paid well and, by some accounts,  might be considered high profile, I always made sure to separate my personal life from my suit-and-tie life.

Bulldog on his own isn't bad. Especially when he talks hockey. But Schopp is one of those talk-radio hosts who loves his own ideas ... and only his own ideas.

he’s turned into a bought puppet who’s now a complete total d bag.

 

Very sad because I used to listen to him way back when he was in his basement doing shows.
