I wonder how pissed Monty was when Comcast called and said "fire your boy"

QB Eagles

I'm sure the Phils knew that was part of the deal. They didn't ink a 25-year contract without talking about what's going to happen to the product. They were loyal to Wheels but not $2.5 bill loyal.

Wheels and Sarge are apparently still going to be working for the Phillies off the air. Kind of obvious that would be the case for Wheels but I would expect Sarge to leave town for another broadcast gig.

Hire Wheels as a greeter and seat-wiper-downer for the diamond club and let Sarge be hitting coach!

the party had to end at some point for sarge

hes pulling in 6 figures to work 3 innings of tv per day. and its not like he prepared. it was among the best jobs in the world, in terms of effort/salary. but at some point someone was gonna catch on.

im hoping that comcast doesnt want to blow up the broadcasting teams all at once and this year is it for tmac. at some point if this is going to become their show theyre going to want their own guy.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Sarge was our version of Forrest Gump.  Sure, he's mildly retarded and most of the time he doesn't know what the farg is going on, but still...

I wanted Wheels gone like everyone else but McCarthy is still there.  That's like finding out you've received a cure for herpes but you've still got the aids.   Franzke and LA should be the prime TV crew.  I don't give a farg is tmac is sent to radio or hell for that matter.   Just get him off my tee-vee all summer.

Thx

sarge actually knew his shtein and had really intelligent takes....he just didnt have the delivery to allow people to receive them...i liked sarge a lot...i always just wanted to hug him like a teddy bear...i also enjoyed his post game interviews.....he was the perfect three inning man

mccarthy is awful but i think he can be saved and become tolerable IF and this is a really big if they hire a color guy who can be critical...carts biggest problem by far is he is an absolutely insane homer...he needs someone next to him that will reign him in.....i think mitch williams would be fantastic but it would be a demotion for him to take the job
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

I went to sleep pretty happy last knowing that Wheels is gone. I woke up a bit annoyed having realized that the highlight of the Phils 2014 season just happened in the beginning of Jan.

9 million dollars for two players who together aren't worth a sack of used condoms.

I love this team.
