Oh my god its like Patrice rose from the grave and got a something awful forums account. That is amazing. You should do this on other message boards. Do you do anyone else? You should do a show. Like Kevin Pollack would do Walken and then on a screen next to him will be what Patrice would say in response in text form. Like Patrice was backstage with dragon naturally speaking or something. But instead its you. This is amazing!

shyduck posted:I'm bummed there's no show anymore. I'm not happy that he's fired. However, he pretty much was asking for this. Ant made it too easy, and once someone outside the show bubble latched on, it was game over. Yeah, this pretty much sums it up for me. When the tabloids found out that busting people for racism created page clicks/ad views and they started looking for people to "out" as racists, everyone who paid the slightest bit of attention to the show (Sirius XM obviously didn't) knew that it was just a matter of time before they would discover the jackpot that is Anthony Cumia. If the bosses told him years ago to keep his racism, "fun" and not vitriolic he wouldn't have been fired. I have cringed every time Sam in his pre show talks about how there is a story today about a black guy killing a kid or something and "they can't wait to get Ant's take on this", because I knew that something like this would eventually happen.

This Charming Goat posted:Ironically Anthony's ex girlfriend got fired from XOJane recently because they found a bunch of videos and tweets of her being racist. She said it was his fault because she did them when she was dating him and he used mind control to MAKE her dress like a nazi and rant about lazy niggers waah. I remember seeing her on LFTC, bored and doing her nails while Anthony drunkenly laughed at video clips.

The only thing missing from this is the awkward silence from Ant, and Opie trying to stand up and get simply rolled over in between gales of Patrice-fueled laughter. And if there were more people in the studio at the time, there would be people just wailing on Ant and him taking it just like he (apparently) takes physical beatdowns as well.

There is a small but significance difference between the tabloids ragging on a celebrity for calling some TMZ reporter a fag and Anthony's full on racial tirade. I do think we have a problem where if you bust everybody on minor things that aren't really that prejudice when you put them in context, then busting the true racists gives their defenders wiggle room to say that the media is out of control. If Donald Sterling and Cumia were the only two big "Look at what this racist said" stories this year they'd be way more effective then every little slip of words making the headlines.

I canceled my subs earlier in the weekend. Theyve been kept as a courtesy since I supported the company, even though I was listening from pirated mp3s. 100K shares of stock will be sold monday. Nice profit, since I bought around 6 cents.

Sam said on Twitter he spent time with both of the people that gave him a career so I'm thinking Opie might have been at Ants party working poo poo out. It makes sense to me if they aren't meeting with the bosses till Tuesday.

It makes sense to me if they aren't meeting with the bosses till Tuesday. Yeah I was trying to figure that one out too. It's possible that Sam met Opie and Anthony separately, or called one and met the other in person or some such, but if he did meet them together & the rest of the staff then that probably says good things about O&A sticking together down the road.

I will openly say I am not looking forward to anything Opie does by himself in the future, because I'm convinced it will include a multiplied effort to sell his self-marketed bullshit, like shirts and mugs. He'll passively aggressively talk about envelopes and whine more about not getting comps from companies. Honestly, unless they somehow go back to riffing on news, audio, and staff fighting, I think I'm okay leaving the show as is.

I do feel sorry for all the staff who weren't massive racists that have had their job thrown into question because Anthony is a loving dummy. Who will keep Sam feed Sam's wrestling figure addiction?

It makes sense to me if they aren't meeting with the bosses till Tuesday. I didn't see Op in any photos of the party, and in the past he has said he has never been there. I think that since this was a big thing to celebrate Dawnie's 50th, that even though may have been murmurings, it was generally kept off-topic.

If they can do what Carolla did but on the East Coast it would be interesting. Create a little podcast network with themselves and other comedians based out of New York.

Captain Invictus posted:I think what he's saying is the Opie and Anthony Show is the 80 year old free-spirited lady who suddenly has her kidneys die and has to be hooked up to a dialysis machine for the rest of her life. Sure, you can listen to her every day, but the life is clearly dead in her eyes and the most merciful thing would be to pull the plug.

Ant's brother tweeted that the show's done.quote:I don't think there'll be any more live broadcasts. My opinion. A well informed 1. #DumpYourSub https://twitter.com/JosephCumia/status/485820494696837121 I'll be really surprised if Opie & Jim walk after their meeting. Leaving money on the table and loving over the staff doesn't seem like something they'd do.
