Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
Haynie is really talented; it's a shame he can't find a proper format. Vinny is awful, Rob Long talks too much Gamecocks and Lakers for my taste, and Mark Zinno should never be allowed near a microphone. And thank God they aren't bringing Ken Weinman back. He would give the call-in number every two seconds.
Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
happy rob and vinnie extra hour..super happy dickface zinno is on 9pm....super pissed bob is doing fill in....i also think the station pays zinno to take the other side of every argument because of ratings.

Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
This sucks. I like Bob. Hate Vinnie.
Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
Most everything on the FAN is not worth listening to. Bunch of hack jobs.

I didn't know that about brokered time.
Yea, you had the #1 rated Sunday show on NST at one time til, well,
nevermind.

Bob Haynie will never be a fixture because his voice is the worst sounding thing on the planet. I listen to 105.7 occasionally but if Bob Haynie is on I instantly turn it off, I don't care if he's the smartest man on the planet, he needs a larynx transplant.
Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
Ok, Zinno is not a great radio personality.
But seriously, he needs to be called names, have his resume inaccurately characterized and mocked?
He's a stand up guy and a Major in the Army. At least that should garner a more level headed criticism?
Shameful.

It was announced in June of 2012 that CBS Sports Radio would launch in 2013, I wonder if they will get any national shows, or also can the Sat and Sun morning non sports shows. http://content.usatoday.com/communit...adio-network/1

Nobody here mocked his military service. And the cheerleader thing easy to poke fun at.
I didn't call him names either. I just said he was terrible on the air.
Throwing him in the 9 PM time slot is tantamount to putting him in the basement with his red stapler. He's one cut from being released altogether. Which means a lot of people agree with my assessment.

Wasn't referring to your post.
Yes, putting him at 9 is a death blow to his radio career. I wasn't a fan of his by any stretch anyway.
Baltimore sports radio has been putrid for years now. Not sure why better talent can't be found and kept here. It's like it's a disease.

"Zinno" doesn't use his real name.
He was a male cheerleader.
He's a cheerleader coach.
He is an awful and unlikeable radio personality.
That is pretty damn accurate.
There are plenty of people who have or had provided service to this country, they, no so more than him, don't necessarily deserve to be on the radio attempting to have a legitimate take on sports.
Re: Changes at 105.7 The Fan
Works for me: Long & Cerrato are gasbags, but somehow personally preferable to Haynie & Zinno (both of whose vocal inflections grate on me), All for Scott & Jeremy especially in that order. Haynie does a nice job, though, on the players' shows (e.g Cary Williams).
