Data-driven decision-making is science and art.
It's almost like you guys secretly want stuff to get mad about...
It's not a secret.

So, I like where you're heads at, however "letting them know you're outraged" is also "letting them know you're watching".
Their business model is clicks. If you want to hurt their wallets, you have to stop clicking and start shunning.
Also, sidebar, as someone who has started shunning like 99% of sports media, I promise you you'll miss nothing. These dummies add nothing to your life but irritation.
These personalities just don’t get it. They are SO self absorbed.
This asshole move by Felger.
Rich was crushing Durant’s media slam this morning and Toucher was chirping in the background - yes, yes it is your JOB to communicate with the media. We are a massive role in the publicity and value of these franchises. Huh?
They don’t get it. Every person I know laughs and mocks these guys when the stars diss them. I don’t know a single person who gripes about Bill when he shows his media disdain. I revel in it. He doesn’t crush everyone. He knows. He targets asshats.
I clicked nothing from their airplay. It’s Barstool.
If you tell them you're upset about their content, the implication is that you've seen their content. If you've seen the content they've done their job.
See, you guys appear to act like their job is to provide insightful commentary and useful information about your favorite sports team. It is not. It's to grab your attention to sell ads and the best way to do that is to piss you off.
But, like I said before, I don't believe you guys want them to stop this kind of crap because it gives you something to be mad about.
I agree, Portnoy sucks. his act is old and he is too old to act like that.The biggest idiot in Boston sports media is David Portnoy from Barstools. I have no problem with Felger, Mazz, or any of the others.
Mazz was a good baseball writer at one time too.
no, he wasn't. Him, Shank and the whole crew are a bunch asswads when it comes to writing about the Sox. Gammons is the only decent baseball writer the city of Boston has ever seen. Nothing but throwing shit at the wall and praying some of it will stick.

I thought the low point for Felger was saying Roy Halladay "got what he deserved" on the day he died

I CAN SAY THAT AGAIN.
If I were you fellas, I'd follow Mike Reiss for updates and that would be it. Anything Pats related that's remotely important he'll tell you about in a reasonable and fair manner.
That's what I've done (sub in Mike Chappel) and I've never once regretted it.
Living far away from Boston, I live stream some of these radio shows just to hear whats going on. I think Fred Toucher is a ginormous piece of crap, along with Felger and his puppet Mazz. Mazz was a good baseball writer at one time too.
It's really annoying and I hate supporting them, but it is something to listen to on my hour long commute.
Adam Jones seems to be a little better. I don't listen at noon but I imagine Zolack might be good.
If you guys have another station you recommend, besides WEEI, that would be great.
As for this latest jerk move, I'm writing Beasley now.
