Radio Stuff: Sean Salisbury Is Out At 'The Fan'

Oh Yeah: It's 'FISH on ESPN' Tonight From 10-To-Midnight

By Mike Fisher -- DB.com
On Jan. 25, we interviewed Sean Salisbury and broke the news that the former NFL quarterback and ESPN analyst was coming to Dallas to join the new sports station, 105.3 The Fan. Now we bring you different news:

Salisbury is out at the increasingly impactful new sports station, 105.3 The Fan.


Yeah. “Out’’ as in “no longer with the station.’’ And let me suggest to you that The Fan ain't messin' around: Salisbury was gone before he could go on the air this afternoon, and on the station's website, Salisbury's presence there has been erased.

Meanwhile, in other broadcasting news, in case you are interested in something almost as juicy, I’m hosting on 103.3 ESPN Radio tonight from 10-to-midnight.















Sean Salisbury Fired From Radio Station, Allegedly For More Cellphone Hijinks (Semi-Update)

Sean Salisbury was employed at Dallas radio station 105.3 (who knew!) but apparently he's already out. You'll never guess what the rumor is as to why he was let go.

According to one source close to the station, Salisbury "freaked out a station promo girl after sexting her". Program director Tom Bigby had no comment about the alleged incident but said that a formal press release about Salisbury's dismissal is forthcoming. Damn.

The old number we have for Salisbury isn't working, but hopefully he'll have a comment about this at some point.


From one reader:

I listen to The Fan in Dallas pretty much every day, particulalry in the afternoon when Salisbury is on. About a month ago when the cowboys were preparing to go to camp, salisbury was doing a show on location somewhere. On air he asked out one of the promo girls to go to San Antonio with him to cowboys camp. He got her number off air on commercial break and later bragged on air about getting the girl's number. They even posted a picture of her on the 105.3 website to prove how "hot" she was. I think her name was Julie if I remember correctly. Anyways, no idea if this is the same girl that is making this accusation but I thought this sounded like it could be the same girl.









Report: Salisbury fired for cell phone shenanigans

Posted by Mike Florio on September 11, 2009 5:22 PM ET
Former NFL quarterback Sean Salisbury was a journeyman at best during his NFL career. After retiring from football, he became a mini-star at ESPN, despite an annoying tendency to speak in absolutes and hyperbole. (Case in point, he said before Super Bowl XLI that, if Devin Hester of the Bears returns a kick for a touchdown, Chicago will win. Hester did. Chicago didn't.)

He left ESPN in early 2008, claiming that he wanted to move on to bigger and better things. Some thought that the powers-that-be in Bristol might not have been all that upset about the development.

Since then, Salisbury has generally faded into oblivion.

He'll be even more oblivious, according to the folks at ********, because he has been fired from Dallas radio station 105.3 the Fan. Per ********, Salisbury "freaked out a station promo girl after sexting her."

Salisbury reportedly got himself into hot water while in Bristol for showing to co-workers a certain type of self-portrait.

That is one hosed station. Constant fluctuations in their lineup and usually a distant third behind The Ticket and ESPN in this market. I would say it's only a matter of time before they change formats again.

Edit: I lied. Them and ESPN are in a dead heat now. Weird. Neither are close to The Ticket.

Wow. Just when you thought he couldn't be any more of a tool.

Hey Salisbury, you're, what, 45 now? The 20-year-olds aren't interested anymore.

Anyway, good riddance. Now to get rid of that Steeler fan Jagger.

Not always true there CL. They could still be impressed with his big fat wallet.

Though I hear that getting dumped by job after job can cause a 'shrinking syndrome' to afflict it.

Yay! My internet strike has worked!

I will start watching The Fan now. He was an obvious cowboys hater and had no reason to be the official cowboys station.

He's clearly got sexual compulsion issues. And is a ******.

:laugh2: So he likes to get a little boom chicka pow wow from younger women. Nothing wrong with that if he's single. However, sexual harrassment is not tolerated in any workplace these days, and just the slightest innuendo can get one fired. Sending text messages to the effect leaves proof in the court of law.

Idiotic!

Maybe that is due to them broadcasting the Rangers and the Cowboys games.

Other than that, yes their format sucks in a way.
The morning show is mostly garbage, with some sports talk thrown in now and then.
Then when they do talk sports, it's all sports, throw in Rangers and Cowboys talk, and soon Maericks and Stars. I can understand it to a degree, as it keeps all fans of all the teams somwhat tuned it.

I, myself think it sucks. If I want to hear them talking about the Cowboys, keep it on that subject for a while. Not 10 minutes Rangers, throw in a minte about the Cowboys, then talk about SEXTING for 30 minutes. As they did one day

I kind of actually like Salibury when he talked football, he was pretty much to the point, without sounding too negative. Seemed to put a good light on the Cowboys.

I tuned in today on the way home and noticed he wasn't in.

He probably has some issues (heck we all do to some extent) but I actually like the guy as a radio personality.

I was listening to him a few days ago ripping a Steelers fan who claimed that James Harrison had just as much trade value as Demarcus Ware, if both teams theoretically wanted to do a trade.
