There's definitely something going on. I am far more concerned about his longterm health, to be honest. Whatever is wrong, they've done a tremendous job of keeping a lid on it.
I think it's possible.

Possible. Barring health I think he will want to stick around seeing as he hasn't lost his enthusiasm.
Unless NESN wants to part ways I guess. I don't know how his type of job is or if he has a contract of some sort though?

Correct.
I believe @Fenway has said it’s ESPN for Rounds 2-3 and Turner for the Final.
We watched Game 3 on NESN because the Turner broadcast was delayed.
The image quality was considerably inferior and my wife noticed how off Jack sounded.
It’s worrisome and I wish the best to the man.
I've been watching the 'on this day' show on nesn and this morning it's Bruins @ Montreal 4/26/88. I had this evil thought that I'm surprised they don't add the digital ads on the old classic games too.

I finally got it with Felger.
Like Wrestling.
A very entertaining script (great stunt people) that entertains.

I might hate him too if I still listened to the Sports Hub and had any idea who you were talking about.

It just does nothing for me.
There was a time in my life when I found that type of stuff funny; when I was in my teens/twenties.
T&R was funny 10 years ago, but I’d much prefer they switch to a straight sports morning show at this point.
Hardcore nuts and bolts "sports guy" is boring radio. It just is. There is a reason Felger and Mazz kill it in the ratings. People find the show entertaining and that's the name of the game.

Which is why I am convinced they don’t believe half the shit they say.
Sarcasm coming back at me: “Yeah Donnie. There’s a new hot take.”
I could have killed him for blowing the whistle this morning. He's awful. I wish they would ignore his calls
McGarnagle
Yes.

Of all the random bit characters, he's the one I can't stand. It's just a mentally ill homeless guy yelling and they can't steer conversation anywhere when he's on the phone because he's mentally ill. It's obnoxious.
I love Guy From Machine, he's hilarious. I'm also okay with Xanadude. But Rock 'n' Roll Mike is horrible

Fred Toucher ripping Rich and Wallach on Twitter last night and this morning. Think some changes are coming to 6-10 sooner than later.

Minihane said yesterday on his podcast that he talked to Fred. I'm hoping Fred can make an appearance on his podcast soon.

Sucks what’s happening to him. I knew Wallach was a corporate bootlicking weasel but very surprised by Rich.
I'm not blaming Wallach after all the shit Fred has talked about him for getting the gig with the Celtics. Fred's jealousy towards Wallach is disgusting and unwarranted. Wallach earned his opportunity by doing side gigs for Bryant and other schools. That wasn't just handed to him like Fred tries to imply.
Wallach fought back finally and Fred got even more pissed.
Him shitting all over Rich and accusing him of keeping secrets and being a shill for management was gross. Rich stepped up to keep a valuable member of the team at the station and Fred did nothing but cry about his divorce.
Does anyone blame Nick for staying away from Fred? Between making fun of his health issues to blasting him about him not telling him about his newborn son, I'm surprised we didn't hear Nick absolutely lose it on air.
Fred has had one too many get out of jail free cards and it is about time the coddling and sweeping his behaviors under the rug to stop.

Every time I tune in it's like listening to someone learn about the NHL for the first time - today they were singing the phrases of all the panthers players they saw for the first time in this series. Big Verhaeghe fans these days..

Exactly. Just realize and remember that even he doesn't believe the bullshit he's saying and it's all an act to rile up the listeners and get them to call in and unload on him
Do these things ever end on good terms? Think Francessa and Mad Dog for one. It will probably end badly here and then years later they'll patch things up.
Now I have to ask. There was a clear feud between Minihane and Fred years ago. Or was that all an act too?
