I suspected all along this was censorship issue. Has to be tied to his Garrett criticism. Brian never went after Jerry or Stephen.

As outspoken and opinionated as Broaddus is wouldn’t surprise me if the dispute had to do with censorship.

In my opinion, if it was about censorship, he has given the organization much better opportunities in the past than anything he's said lately.

As some have already noted there have been a few others that have left the show and had much more of a send off than Broaddus did. There was no putting in two weeks and not being allowed to participate on the shows.

My best guess is that they basically allowed him to resign and “explore other opportunities” rather than embarrass him.

He’s been a huge part of the show over the past 4-5 years, to think that him just abruptly leaving without congratulatory farewells is not likely or normal.

Things change and it it might not have been something he said on air or on Twitter. The last critical comments he made on his final appearance of Talkin’ Cowboys were about Tristan Hill. He certainly wasn’t over the top in his comments about Hill. He was very candid about him. His departure may not have had anything to do with censorship.

If that happened there would have been a send off and he would have announced he was leaving either on Talkin’ Cowboys or Twitter. There’s always a send off when someone leaves and everyone announces this will be their final show but Broaddus disappeared and everyone was tight lipped about it. The last Talkin’ Cowboys he did was November 1 just prior to the Giants game. He said at the end of the show he would be doing the Cowboys pregame but didn’t. Whatever went down happened suddenly. Everyone was too hush hush about his absence for it to be as simple as he got a better offer and decided to leave. Bill Jones even said he hadn’t tried reaching out to Broaddus and Broaddus didn’t reach out to him so there was clearly a dispute that led to his sudden departure.

Something else happened. It probably won't be made public. IMO he got suspended and ultimately terminated. Could be a myriad of things. Sure he can say it was his decision all day long but I haven't heard the Cowboys say that. LOL

It’s possible it was something else but there was clearly a dispute. I posted when he first disappeared from Talkin’ Cowboys that he may have been suspended. He said it was his decision but not according to Tim MacMahon. He said it was the Cowboys decision and Broaddus never disagreed in the tweet they exchanged.

On Hill, I thought the head cheerleader Mickey was more critical in his comments than anything Broaddus said. Did you catch those remarks?

What exactly did Mickey say?

The entire Radio industry does this and it's really a terrible way to treat your listeners.

You listen to someone for years and then suddenly one day their contract is up or the company moves on and they give you no explanation or nothing.

You owe it to the people that tune in everyday to let us know what going on unless it's just something that is damaging.

Everyone is calling out that terrible coach. The Cowboys shouldn't care at this point if someone on their website is just pointing out the obvious.

Just mentioned that things weren’t going well with Hill and how he followed up a bad week by almost missing the team flight. You know it’s not good when even THAT GUY is critical.

I agree. It’s gasoline on a fire and invites rumors.

Talking Cowboys is now unbearable to listen to. I haven't listened to the show since finding out Broaddus left. I just go straight into the break and then HWTB. Mickey drags the show down into the mud.

BTW.....Jesse's breakdown on the inner workings of the Patriots organization was awesome yesterday on HWTB.
