Trouble at WFNZ: QCB and Mark Yarbro fired, full-length podcasts eliminated

[rdog157h]

I hated "Yarbs" and QCB so I cant complain. I actually like Garcia unlike most. Get rid of "Boney" and I will feel good, almost like a reverse draft for me!

jesus, how does anyone get fired on that station not named Frank Garcia? It really is a worthless terrible station.

Can they re-hire then re-fire Marc with a C James again just for shiits and giggles?

I enjoy the show. I will admit that QCB segments were too long. Less is more sometimes. QCB is a talented, and I do mean talented piece of.....what was I saying again?

What about cousin bootsie's monkey crate business? Gonna miss the guy.

I have Sirius and listen to Stern, that's it.

I like FNZ in doses during the day.  I have been listening to Prime time a little more.

Get my Mac fix in the am.

But surprised by Yarbs. I noticed at lunch no Yarbs and nothing else said. Ironic to hear Connecticut School of broadcasting ads today...

As long as they keep WFNZ programming local I'm good. I love Panthers talk and local radio is the only place to get it outside of the podcasts.

Exactly.  And neither of these guys liked the Panthers.

Yep. Hearing about the redskins or cowboys was the worst. No interest in either. I hated qcb in primetime. And I doubly hated Bustin Loose they always made outlandish unsupported claims to just drum up interest. Like KB at fing 280 bs, I wish Garcia was gone too.

Two more non- panther fan hosts bite the dust. Hate that people lost their job, but I've never understood why there were so many fans of out of market teams on the station.

[csx]

I don't want to listen to fans. I read the dumb poo everyday here.

There were a few guys that just sucked, but all in all I actually really enjoyed listening to WFNZ.  

**prep for sappy moment**

When I moved here 3 years ago, I didn't know anyone in charlotte and I was 13 hours away from what I considered home.  I honestly would sit down every afternoon in my patio and drink a few beers and listen to that station.  I still do this from time to time, but it sucks when stuff like this happens.  Sucks for them and their families, hope they rebound.

QCB was entertaining but he (and the entire mid morning crew) spent too much time bromancing and not enough time talking about sports.  

Yarbs I don't get.  I wonder if these guys just get to a certain salary point where it makes sense for the station to bring in a fresh communications grad at $8.25/ hr.

I don't get all of the Garcia hate - he's one of the few on the station that can actually talk football.  I would say the only one I like more than Garcia is Geoff Schwartz and I hope he roles into a regular host role with QCB and Yarbs gone.
