      I've never gotten sick of a guy faster than I did him. That show is awful. Everything about it stinks. Both hosts. When macnow and Ray filled in the other day it was so enjoyable. Can't they go FT from 2-6?

      His schtick no longer has any juice. It's just not believable that he cares about local sports even a little bit. Don't try to sound like an exasperated local who has 40 years of suffering as an Eagles' fan. It just reeks of effort. He Just yells all the time and honestly isn't funny enough to make me laugh.

      Miley Miss is not much better. The 2-6 slot is a total abyss on philly sports radio right now.

      I didn't like the cuz and rob Ellis but they were 100x easier to take than Riccardo's believed Pinnis.

        never mind...just looked it up

        I was also offended when he was trying to comment after Hollis Thomas' heartfelt plea for a friend or relative who died from complications of COPD. Innes said "that's some serious stuff. That's like ...and named some ailment that wasn't even remotely close to COPD...I forget what disease he mentioned but it wasnt close... and then he kept going..."is it like asthma?" It was beyond gringe-worthy.

          Called Kelce a "house negroe." Probably should be fired.

              Screamin' A Smith basically said the same thing about Donovan McNabb, and he's still screamin'.

                He'd be in real big trouble if he had said that about a AA player. He might be able to get by with a suspension since Kelce is white. Guess we will see.

                  He also clearly made the reference in the context of using the term as it was used in the movie Malcolm X.

                    I'm not a big PC guy and maybe I'm influenced by my opinion of Innes as a cringeworthy slob, but I don't know - I think it's pretty bad.

                    In some ways it's worse than Steven A, another African American, saying it. There's an element of it being demeaning because he is comparing him to a black person, because that, apparently, is demeaning in and of itself. Does that make sense?

                    Whatever, I'm down with second chances. Maybe he learns from it. Blah blah blah.

                      I'm not a PC guy at all, but I'm all for the "outrage" crowd calling for his job because he's that unbearable on the air.

                        Agreed. Some of you are boiling all of the context out of what he said, that being said, I hope he gets canned.

                          What's the context? He was watching Malcolm X? Maybe Kelce was acting exactly like the "house negroe" Denzel describes. I'm not sure that makes it right to call him that. What am I missing (serious question)?

                            I'm not sure why you think it isn't right to use that historical reference.

                            He also called him "Eddie Haskell" and if he had only used that reference the only discussion, if there was one at all, would be whether Kelce is a management ass kisser.

                            Which was the only point Innes was seeking to make.

                              Why it isn't right to use historical reference of the "house negroe?"

                              P.s. I'm not sure his point is correct anyway.
