Credit to WEEI Morning Show. They did a good job today and Greg played the audience well.

That Joon Lee piece was wild. When I think of Felger, Nantucket and collapsing lungs are my first comparisons, not the current mayor of Boston. The reactions were definitely not favorable either. Chad Finn thankfully remembered one of my favorite BSMW nicknames, You’re Absolutely Right Michael.

Good luck with the injury. T’s and P’s.

The only thing I will give the sox credit for is NOT TRADING JARREN DURAN, heads would have rolled if they did so. I love that Correa got traded back to the Astros and I am pretty sure we just smacked the twins. I cannot wait for the boo parade.

I know gambling can be fun, especially when you're a professional athlete who makes tons of money, I do not know why they would risk everything for a small fraction of what they make currently and will make over their careers. So dumb to me. lol

Sports radio has been dead for me since the end of 2022... you know why

hope you feel better, good looks

They list the Sox as “snoozers”

I’d have called them losers myself.

Can’t believe the Giants traded Yastrzemski to KC…seems shortsighted

THE RED SOX HAD A GREAT TRADE DEADLINE-THEY GOT SP/RP WITHOUT GIVING UP ANY IMPORTANT PROSPECTS. Why would you move Jones and Keefe middays the ratings are a big improvement over Gresh/Fauria

You're crazy, David. Should have done much more.

RE: WEEI - Afternoon drive is more important than middays for radio.

WE'LL SEE WHO'S RIGHT ABOUT THE RED SOX. DOESN'T WEEI WANT TO DO WELL IN ALL THE TIME SLOTS THE AFTERNOON WILL BE A SUCCESS AS LONG THE RED SOX ARE PLAYING WELL. MOST DAYS AT 6PM IS REDSOX PREGAME SO THE AFTERNOON SHOW WILL BE NATURAL LEAD-IN

Sure, but it's not helping right now. Their weekly ratings - even with Sox - is in the low 3s.

Will Kennedy get off the treadmill long enough to answer questions about sitting on their hands during the deadline? I hope you are recovering well and enjoy what is left of your vacation!

I think that was Werner on the treadmill, but at least he picked up the call that one time.

Thanks as always, DTH.
