Good.

I hope he dies. I do. I hope he goddamn dies. I hope he gets ahold of some tainted cheese and dies lonely and forgotten behind the baseboard of a soiled bathroom in a poor neighborhood.
Careful, this could be construed as a threat and we may need to choke you out

I've abstained from that discussion.

He didn't say he'd kill him.

This truly made me laugh out loud. Vet just holding doors. Ole Colin is really trying to keep his job

I like the one where he cried on Twitter about "owing" people an answer for anything. Dude puts his entire life out there on Twitter. Is upset when is called out on it.

Sure sounds like a suspension to me. Wonder what role he'll be back on the air too

day 16 and you guessed it, no Pittsburgh Dad Jr. or Mack.

But I'm sure it's just coincidence that both took extended vacations at the same time.

"soon"

new development...Pittsburgh Dad Jr. updated his Twitter bio and removed the "Host Fan Morning Show" part. It just says 93.7 The Fan Pittsburgh now. Mack's bio is unchanged. Hmm

I was driving home from my fishing trip this morning and had the FAN on when I got closer to home, and some caller called in and asked where the "other two were", and Crowley basically said nothing and hung up.

DK in a passing match with yohe and rossi today.

Writes and article disputing the athletic article the aforementioned wrote for the athletic, which fine, if you have different info and want to put it put there, go for it.

But he starts off his article about how his site doesn't ever focus on others works, yada Yada Yada, then proceeds to focus on others work.

I was in deep creek all week.

Rossi was exposed as a liar in that Blueger story and immediately shut off commenting on all of his tweets. Dude sucks, rare DK but mostly Haase win

It's amazing that anyone would continue to employ him.

What story?

Postby **iamjs** » Sat May 27, 2023 5:25 pm

in the Rossi/Yohe story that was published on The Athletic this week that involved all of the bad stuff Hextall did during his tenure, Rossi said that Blueger found about his trade via social media.

But Blueger says he was called by Burke before the team dinner.

I read it. It seems like it may have started in earnest but quickly dissolved into fun sensationalism. It wouldn’t surprise me if the Teddy thing wasn’t the only piece of embellishment.

Week like 3 or 4 of no Pittsburgh Dad Jr. on the morning show.

Postby **dodint** » Tue May 30, 2023 8:12 am

Sounds nice.

Postby **Morkle** » Tue May 30, 2023 8:14 am

It really does. I listen to Dorin/Crowley every Tuesday now taking my kid to daycare. It's a much better format with two people, and they're not constantly yelling or saying zany **** to talk over each other.

I'm still not interested much in Pittsburgh sports talk outside hockey season but this is a positive development. Make it permanent and maybe I'll listen more.

Plus Dorin/Crowley just have a nice dynamic together IMO.

Heard from a source that Pittsburgh Dad Jr. won’t be returning to radio and will just be writing columns. Da Fan has him on probation. I guess nothing physical ever happened just words.

Postby **mamaemeritus** » Wed May 31, 2023 9:34 am

Heard a voiceover just now "This is The Fan Morning Show with Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson" so...yikes. Not that I'm mad I don't have to hear Pittsburgh Dad Jr. anymore. Dude deserves everything he gets.

Wondering about Mack though. Never minded him, hope he's not ass out.
