I’ll miss these guys. They were a great alternative to WEEI. I especially liked it when they had the morning commute slot. Gresh will certainly find more work on ESPN.

The writing was on the wall….once WEEI came into Rhode Island you knew it was only a matter of time. I’m surprised it took WEEI this long to kill off “790 the Score”….no station can competewith the mighty WEEI

I miss the Gresh and Zo Show. It was so suddenly taken off the air that during the first week it was off air I thought that they were on a seasonal break. I do hope that they return to the air waves because many like myself thought they had a wide audience and would like to hear them on the radio again.

Sincerely,

Lui

Why is it a pleasure? If you didn’t like it, then don’t listen.

Yeah, it’s a pleasure that all those people lost their jobs because you don’t like wrestling or golf. Stay classy.

Is is a pleasure to see the station off the air. All the morning crew talked was football, wrestling (not a sport, by the way), and more football…even during baseball season. The afternoon, well golf, golf and more football—remember 5 years or so ago? Jim Rome—there is a classic stupid show. Out

Hey Tim. What the hell is wrong with talking up the Steelers? After 5 >3, right? I agree with Gresh being obnoxious, though. But no worse than that fat idiot Sheppard on ‘EEI. And at least Gresh wasn’t a Patsie suck-up like Sheppard and the stuttering Fred Smerlas.

Here is a lesson to anyone interested in working in radio. Scott Cordischi was on that station for ten years. He worked with that group of stations for many more additional years (WPRO).

According to Martone’s blog quote of Scott, he just signed a three year “contract” which allowed the station to cut him at any time. Yikes.

I don’t know his salary, but it is sure to be extremely low for any profession with more than ten years tenure. I would guess he made less than $60,000 annually.

I don’t know what is worse… a station treating its employees so poorly or a professional willing to take it.

And don’t think the way he is being treated is caused by bad ratings or lack of sales by the radio station. He would have been just as mistreated if they were doing well. Radio executives don’t know how to run their business.

There are few radio jobs available right now. I hope the majority of those good folks down there find better jobs in other industries.

I could no longer listen to the SCORE because of Andy Gresh. I found him annoying, obnoxious, belligerent … he made my skin crawl. I’d rather listen to that blowhard Rush.

Gil and Zo? Say it ain’t so…
