Tom Brady NOT suspended for steroid use

adamg — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 11:56:05 -0500

Ah, so this is why my server logs started showing lots of hits yesterday from people searching on variations of "Tom Brady substance abuse."

These are the same people who got fired at WAAF for "reporting" that Tom Menino had died in a car crash. They're now back in Boston, via WBCN, which, of course, broadcasts Patriots games.

Brian: What did we do to deserve these morons?

If only for a night. Via Boston Radio Watch comes the news that longtime (and now former) WBCN program director Oedipus will be on the station tomorrow from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. for his annual Christmas eve show.

Too much Ozzie

Borderline doesn't understand why WBCN and WAAF insist on playing so much Ozzy Osbourne - it's not like their 18-34 demographic is going to know him as anything other than that kooky reality-show guy:

... There are not enough 40-year-olds out there who will wax nostalgic while listening to "Crazy Train" in their Altimas as they drive home on the Pike.

And besides, if you're going to play something from 1982 during peoples' commute, wouldn't The Cars be more appropriate?

John Dennis all over again

Bruce does his usual exhaustive job analyzing all angles of the John Dennis / Ryen Russillo voicemail controversy:

... Does Dennis have the "juice" to make a phone call and get Russillo kicked off the WBCN Patriots programming? He denies it to the Inside Track, but c'mon. He does have that juice. He's been jokingly referred to as another one of the Kraft sons, and his relationship with the family goes back to the time when Robert Kraft partially owned Channel 7 when Dennis was the sports anchor/director for the station prior to Kraft buying the Patriots. ...

What ever happened to Nik Carter from WBCN

Where is Nik Carter and what's he up to. Earlier this year I reported about Nik being fired from WBCN but I was wondering where my man has been lately.

Anyone know? Heard? Seen him?
