I thought I had read somewhere that MASN was looking to pickup another show for the afternoon slot. Might be wrong.

As for an out of towner it doesn't bother me as long as they are knowledgeable and "get" the city they are broadcasting to. To me, Anita never understood the passion this city has for the NFL and the Orioles. She just came across as that person that really wanted to fit in but never knew what to say or do. Add to that her lack of real knowledge on anything sports related that wasn't within the past 5 years and she was just clueless.

From a "radio" side of things, she came across as very unprofessional in her show prep and the way she babbled through her questions. Again, if she didn't see it on ESPN.com or FoxSports.com then to her, it wasn't news or worth talking about. I think my big turn-off factor was when she would get all cute and flirty with the players and try to become their friend.

This new person wasn't bad for what I heard the other day. Then again I have a five minute commute on my way home so usually I'm in iPod mode. As for Amber...she was given her own show when 105.7 started. "The A-List" was the 7pm-11pm show and she was there for all of three weeks before taking the rest of the year off doing work for MASN and the Oriole TV broadcast. After those three weeks I think she was on her own show for maybe 20 shows from March through the end of September.

Obviously not. But when that same woman is simulcast on TV, it would make the show more interesting to have a hottie with local sports knowledge than a Miami bimbo or a skanky Yankee fan.

With 4 Ravens shows weekly plus the rebroadcasting the Scott & Anita show, yes, I watch plenty of MASN during the season. I do not listen to sports radio.

I'd still rather watch and listen to Arte Donovan. Now that guy is always entertaining....... and a censor's nightmare.

And you could bring on Weaver to discuss baseball/The Orioles...

Boy, would that be entertaining.. assuming you could make anything of the conversation with all the beeps. :D

Yeah, well it would certainly not be boring, that's for sure!

If we've got to have a female, stick with Amber. I don't see why we need female sports personalities, but if that's a criterion, couldn't they at least hire someone from Maryland? Or a hottie? Or preferably both.

At least the station is consistent with ugly faces.

That is a far less than flattering picture of Jen. She is actually attractive/cute. I do not think she is that talented, but to call her ugly is off the mark, and to call her a skank is just plain stupid.

That you tube didn't do her justice either. Neither does this.

Damn, ugly women and the Yankees. Now that's a horror picture. UGH!

Different strokes for different folks.
