WEEI Will Shut Down For A Day To Teach Its Hosts Not To Be Hateful Shitheads
Boston radio station WEEI has had a rough go of it lately: Alex Reimer called Tom Brady’s kid a “pissant” and hasn’t been heard from since; Christian Fauria giggled as he did a racist accent of Brady’s agent Don Yee, and was suspended five days; and Kirk Minihane’s still employed.

Tom Brady Cuts WEEI Interview Short Because Host Called His Kid An "Annoying Little Pissant"

We Asked Bostonians What They Know About Hurling
I went to Boston for a hurling tournament with plans to poke fun at the city’s heavy-handed claim to Irish heritage. Real Irishmen—tall ones, who are good at sports—would show up at the municipal manifestation of a St. Patrick’s Day parade and surely put to shame some drunken Massholes. ...

Boston-based Felger and Mazz co-host Michael Felger went for 11 minutes on Wednesday’s show mocking MLB pitcher Roy Halladay’s death and calling him a “moron,” which was a bizarre, stupid angle to take the day after a guy died. On today’s show, Felger issued an apology....

On today’s broadcast of Boston sports radio show Felger and Mazz, co-host Michael Felger went on a long and genuinely astonishing rant about the recent death of former MLB pitcher Roy Halladay.

Red Sox Admit That WEEI Hosts Say Some Shitty Things
WEEI is where to go to hear Boston Red Sox games on the radio. It’s been that way for most years since 1995, and it will continue to be that way through 2023. Despite the partnership, the team can still acknowledge that the radio station encourages some terrible people....
A Field Guide To Boston Sports Radio Chowderheads
Every day, it seems, a different Boston sports radio dipshit is delivering a take from a time when segregation was acceptable, getting attention for being five seconds away from challenging a listener to a parking lot fight for Tom Brady’s honor. Although you may not pay attention to these awful stu...
Teens Discover The Boston Garden Has Ignored Law For Decades, May Owe State Millions

Gronk And Dustin Pedroia Work Very, Very Blue At The David Ortiz Roast
Dustin Pedroia, Anthony Mackie, Bill Burr, and improvisational quarter keg Rob Gronkowski showed up at a roast for David Ortiz yesterday. Gronk’s material was clearly prewritten; Pedroia’s was supposedly not. One was clearly funnier than the other....

Curt Schilling Says No One Denies Racism Exists, Denies Racism Exists
Curt Schilling, former Red Sox pitcher and possibly an adult who does not grasp the concept of object permanence, had questions when Orioles outfielder Adam Jones said he was the target of racial slurs at a May 1 game at Fenway Park. Jones respectfully said, in an interview published Tuesday, that S...
Adam Jones Politely Says Curt Schilling Doesn't Know Shit About Being Black In Boston
Orioles outfielder Adam Jones did an interview with Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports about black players in baseball, racism, former Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling, and more.
