Seems like he severely overstates his relevance

He also outright lied to me when I called him out on parroting national media and claiming it as his own.

"It isn't easy supporting three people to cover the Penguins, but others will see fewer ads."

Wow, three people? That guy must be busy.

Kaboly no longer with the athletic. Seems like odd timing to be let go.

I'm not seeing any news of mass layoffs at The Athletic, so it's an issue with Kaboly. I'm sure Bud Moonshine will snatch no neck right up.

I wonder if he was fired because he sucks

I wouldn’t wonder too much

That being said, I still feel bad that the guy lost his job. The sports media lifestyle ain’t for the faint of heart.

Something's going on at The Athletic/NY Times because three of their best college football writers left within the last 2 weeks to go to greener pastures.

I don't think DK would welcome him back with open arms, hah

I'm sure the Mon Valley Independent would welcome him back

Kaboly was just hired in the pat Macafee shiw

Macafee is a great guy when it comes to charity

I like madden but 'mr. friday afternoon' is unlistenable

Kaboly was apparently also hired by WWE as a digital writer.

Posting a photo of kaboly is an act of aggression

Post by **iamjs** » Thu Sep 12, 2024 9:38 pm

rumor is that Zeise is gone from The Fan.

Only thing I can find is this post.

Wouldn't be a surprise. Parent company Audacy is I think still in bankruptcy, and they've been regularly laying off people from their stations, including several folks from KDKA. They also replaced Red Eye Radio on the overnight with some awful prerecorded show featuring Pitt students, which I would imagine those students do for free for class credit.

Zeiss allegedly fired from da fan for drunkenly cussing out wait staff at a company function… can anyone confirm?

That guy? In the above photo?! No way.
