Twitter: Broaddus done as Cowboy employee

Well that sucks

BB had some terrible takes I disagreed with.... but him and Dane on the draft show was amazing and I was always tuned in
 
Never cared for Broaddus and his football "analysis" I don't think the guy played a down of football in his life and it was comical when the guy tried to break down film!

I would think if he got a regular radio gig he would. Those are on at the same time each day, that's pretty regular.

I have a friend that works for a radio station and he tells us that the public has no idea of what the hours that the on air personalities work. Almost every one work what we would call split shifts. They come in early before they go on the air to have a meeting with the shows producer about what will be going on each day. Then after their show is over they have another short meeting and then they get a break for a couple of hours but later they are either doing research so they don't sound like they are reading things off apiece of paper or are or doing personal appearances at different events. If they are a sports personality they are often covering local sporting events. As my friend says there are no regular hours unless you're the station manager or behind the scenes type like him who does have more of a regular schedule. He is one of a few that run the sound board.

Both argue their points in the same way. Mickey just has a hard time admitting he is wrong about anything. BB will always admit if he got something wrong.

I remember a caller a few season's ago was arguing a point (they kept the caller on for quite awhile), Mickey treats the caller like the biggest idiot in the world. Literally 2 or 3 days later the FO does everything the caller was talking about and Mickey then proceeds to say it was a great move by the FO and something that needed to happen (for quite awhile). Did he really forget the caller he had eviscerated for 20 minutes 2 days before??

It's Ok to be wrong. Just find it distasteful when folks cannot admit they are wrong or provide any info or insight into why suddenly they do a complete 180. I imagine this is why so many people see him as a company "yes" man. I enjoy him on the show at the same time. It's an opinion/debate style show.

He has done this quite often over the years.

That's why I don't bother with anything he does. People here have defended him saying he never does what you just described and it's laughable.

No he never played in the NFL but he was a scout in the NFL for 13 years earning a ring while with the packers in 1996. Whats comical is you not knowing he has the credentials to be able to break down games being a former NFL scout and breaking down film for 13 years.

Did he say this on the Fan? Maybe he’s taking over for the Ben/Skin slot. He’d be a big draw

The Ben & Skin ordeal was a big surprise to me.

They first got bumped from the prime drive time slot to the mid-day slot, then they departed.

The station has new ownership.

Have Ben & Skin shown up on somewhere else yet?

Cern he has now since said he left for a sports radio gig and my guess it was an offer he couldn't turn down and had a time limit on accepting it and starting.

Not yet. They supposedly have a gig lined up that they are waiting to announce.

I just laugh at those who have absolutely ZERO actual knowledge of something yet make guesses as to what happened.

It was a reasonable conclusion prior to Derek Eagleton wishing him well. His boss isn’t going out of his way to talk about the great job he did if he was fired for either his opinion or personal behavior issue.

Now that comes as a shock to me because when I listen to him trying to break down film it's almost if the guy never watched a film in his life........."see this here"......"did you see that".......He always states the obvious, basically a two-year-old could that!

he also just said mickey Spagnola had nothing to do with him leaving. just heard this on 105.3 the fan minutes ago. this is as obvious a lie as a lie can be. at least he's smart enough not to burn bridges.
 
CoachD said:
hahahhaha! His decision to leave? It was also Jimmy's decision to leave. This just in they both were fired!

the powers that be decided the acrimony between bryan and the mick was detrimental to the show. ergo, one had to go. the groveling mickey got to stay.

He obviously had a crush on Ambar Garcia.

I'm starting to buy this Mickey thing now. What's interesting to me is his boss, Derek Eaglton, posted extremely positive tweets about him yesterday. But nothing from Mickey who is obviously a senior level reporter for them. More interesting to me is last week, Thursday or Friday I think it was, a caller on Talkin' Cowboys asked about Bryan...and Mickey responded sharply that you'll have to ask him...and then sharply repeated it...while the other hosts didn't say a word. Quite different than what The Break responded with when they were asked, they made sure everyone knew it was not health related and that it was personal and he's ok.

*EDIT*
Hah, what the hell do I know, just as I post this I see the tweet above saying:

"Just wanted to make something clear here. @Spags52 had nothing to do with me leaving the Cowboys. I enjoyed my time with him. He challenged me and I him. Nothing but respect there."

He and Mikey got into a real pissing argument right before he left. Mikey was real angry as was Bryan.

He's doing well. Still doing some free lance media work.
Back in his home state now for the time being. Still a die hard Cowboys warrior. Always will be.

See I have Zero issues with an employee who gets fired when they speak their mind especially when it comes to the Cowboys because most likely they've made a valid point and "the other side" is either offended, insulted, or they think the other party isn't on board with the rest of the program. It's really funny when it comes to Jerry and a lot of fans that if you speak objectively you are now an outsider or an anti-Cowboy which is so far from the truth.

admiral rickover always encouraged us to speak our minds, even if it got us thrown out of the program. the man hated butt kissers.
