Long overdue for Wheeler. I know I'm in the minority, but I actually enjoyed Sarge.

I wonder if LA and Franzke will get their chance on TV?

OMG - great day for Phila sports. Wheeler is absolutely the worst ever. I didn't mind Sarge as much, but if it had to be a package deal, I'm fine with it.

[slag]

They were both designated homers ... most teams have them.

[rothdawg]

Wheeler wouldn't let the game breath. Every inning it was like he was preaching to an audience who's never seen baseball before.

[slag]

I'm not crying, believe me.

[Dim Bulb]

I'm not crying, believe me.

Wheeler is a twat.

[slag]

He-

he

I think it's clear that this move was made so Amaro can sign Sarge to play OF.

It is a beautiful day!

Wheeler ruined summer for me.actually liked Sarge, he never came across as a know it all, and definitely didn'T talk down to you like frickin Wheels.

[Mississippi-Fan]

Good Move on Wheels, Sarge was extraneous but not as annoying.

Long overdue indeed

Wheeler whacked Whitey. Holding a grudge against the guy after that is fair. La is a massive homer too, but I'm down with him and franzke

Now if only the Eagles would deep six Mike Quick.

Can't stand the way he overuses "this". As in "this" defense (or whatever) instead of "the" defense. He does it every third sentence. Plus he's still sounds like he has marbles in his mouth.

Granted he knows his stuff.

I will miss sarge

Im also among the minority there. Think he brings insights and is fun to listen to. Wheeler...good riddance. Big time. I dont like Tom McCarthy, either. Super annoying to me. Hope this means Franske and LA will be the main TV guys.

Apparently neither one of them is interested in doing TV...which is a shame. It will probably be somebody already on CSN.

I didn't like Doug Glanville as a player, but he would be an outstanding analyst. I doubt he'd leave ESPN though.

The story I always heard was that LA likes radio better because it gives him more freedom to enjoy life outside of the games and not have to worry about what he looks like on camera and there's a little more creative freedom on radio.
