Another Day, Another WFNZ Debacle

It is like Charlotte is allergic to having solid, respectable media members. Today that clown, Tony the Hitman whatever his last name is, moved Kroeger out of the 2-6 spot and replaced him with Bailey and Garcia. Everyone knows in sports tak radio, the 1-6 or 2-6 time slot is the coveted slot.

How Frank Garcia somehow weasled his way into that spot is unfathomable. Frank Garcia wouldn't be allowed on the 12-4AM shift here in NY, let alone the afternoon drive. But franks incompetence can be left for another day.

What this means is that Chris Kroeger will probably be leaving WFNZ. I am not saying I know this for a fact, but this is a clear demotion. It truly is a shame because you can tell how passionate he was about this city and it's teams. He also was very well spoken and was a pleasure to listen to.

Well done Tony and the suits over at Entercom. You continue to show us everyday how truly incompetent you all are.

Anything that makes Frank Garcia easier to ignore is fine with me. Sometimes I would forget to turn my radio off after Mac Attack ends and I don't know how ratings in radio work but the thought that I might be helping that show stay on the air really upset me. Now at least I can turn it off and leave it off for the rest of the day.

Peopl actually still listen to the radio? Do they do it while reading the daily newspaper?

It's handy while you're driving, or if you need some background noise and there's nothing good on TV.

And I like Kroeger. Don't always agree with him, but he's the best they've had in that slot for a while.

I hate this switch. Garcia is a blowhard who is so full of himself and likes creating fake drama by asking ridiculous questions such as " is Cam Newton just a running back". He's an old school guy in a new school market. No one that's not 40+ wants to listen to his drivel on the way home from work.

Garcia's show has been through a couple of different versions. The latest iteration seems to be based on a pretty common sports radio tactic, i.e. pairing a meatheaded jock with an intelligent sports journalist type.

Basically, it's FNZ's Golic and Greenberg.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?

      If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
