The Rangers "recommended sending only two writers" per outlet, as the press box has limited space. <shrugs>
yeah I saw that later on. I guess DK had to pick since he wasn't giving up his spot to take the respect HOFer the future "best hire the site ever made" and give her a promotion and risk pissing Dave off. Oh well. DK sure does talk Taylor up a lot. Hope he actually gives her benefits and good pay so she just doesn't jump ship. He would be distraught if he she left.

Alright, getting ready for work at 6:45 this morning. Need some Pens talk to soothe my troubled soul after last night. Against my better judgement, turn on teh Fan.

They’re talking about some Zeise rant about vending machines and pizza day at the office :face:

That’s enough Fan for this year.

I'd be willing to bet she gets paid under an actual reporter salary and is given the "experience" to excel. Just based on all assumptions about DK and how he handles talent. I would wager she's very much the cheaper option. Just like this Dan dude they're bringing on. He came up through the ranks as a "blogger" so I suspect he's paid nickels too.

The only Pens talk you'll get on radio in Pittsburgh is from Madden. It's the only time of the year he is worth the listen, during the playoffs.

Pittsburgh Dad Jr. is such an idiot:



He sounds so clueless here, like he's never worked in radio before. This was him after basically telling someone in another tweet to listen to Madden if they wanted all hockey talk during an entire show. Like damn well he knows if the Steelers or god forbid the Pirates had a playoff game tonight, every single show on da Fan would be talking about the game/sport for the full four hours.

Is four hours the total amount of time actually spent on sports content in a day for the Fan? Sounds high.

lol 3:45 of it is spent on commercials, so I don't know what anyone is discussing. Also Pittsburgh Dad Jr. insulted Madden by calling him a deckhockey doughboy or something.

I like when Pittsburgh Dad Jr. insults someone else's charitable efforts. Really hits home his, doing it for his daughter schtick.

He also proclaimed they had the best hockey talk in town so.. He's such a used car salesman.

Madden called it out, but I think it's only a matter of time Crowley ends up replacing someone on that morning show. He seems to have a much better following than anyone there, that's for sure.

I only ever see Pittsburgh Dad Jr. when Madden RTs him or something.

What an embarrassing exchange for a self-proclaimed good guy -





Every once in awhile this dude apparently acts up and says stuff like this. Today must be the day - but the guy is so ridiculously fake it's not really even that funny.

lol I still remember that day him white knighting on the old board.

Dude was all over the place when his daughter was sick. Enjoyed the ride, talked all this **** about helping, but haven't heard a peep since.

Yeah I agree. I think he'd replace Pittsburgh Dad Jr. for sure. He's probably not cheap and I bet his contract is up for renewal and that is how its spun. I think Crowley is too talented to be a producer for the stupid morning show when he used to have his own show for years..its like a demotion, he's not some kid fresh out of college. Plus the Early AM show he does, he won't want to do that forever. We've read stories of none of his co-workers getting along with Pittsburgh Dad Jr. plus they have that new "brand manager", great timing to clean the brand of the morning show at least.

If he's fired he can spend more time taking care of birds nests at his Hampton McMansion lol

Why does Kaboly try so hard to rip on the Penguins? I feel like every time they lose he tries to say some lame joke, etc. He seems like one of the guys not happy the Penguins are as successful if not moreso than the Steelers the last 10 years.

Sullivan said the rule "stinks" not "sucks"

DK was being a huge baby.

BTW, Chris Carter is leaving DK.
