Vinny Cerrato to host a mid-day radio show?

I've been patient and given the benefit of the doubt with Snyderatto, but this is just flat out ridiculous...

haha wtf. Danny definitely planned to keep ESPN "unbias" and this will definitely help Vinny do his job better.

I really thought Snyder couldn't do any more, but he continues to amaze me...

I disagree with the move, but Jason's RI is getting a little ridiculous. The little boy takes shots at Dan Snyder and Vinny every chance he gets and he's starting to sound like a guy with a vendetta, as opposed to a journalists with some personal opinions.

Re: Vinny Cerrato to host a mid-day radio show?

I don't think it's such a huge deal. Most of Vinny's work is really for the off-season. Day to day and in-season Scott Campbell and Morocco Brown are running the show. Four hours a week is not something for JLC to get worked up over.

Will be interesting to see what questions he'll get asked

I think some people automatically assume that if you're not kissing ass then you're being objective. Unfortunately thats not always the case and in fact it can be just as bad on the other end of the spectrum, as is the case of JLC, who will whine about anything and everything dealing with Snyder and Cerrato.

In fact I'll say it now, JLC is just as objective these days as Larry Michael. Though to this date Charles Gibson is the only one I've seen that has been able to achieve both extremes of bias. Just compare his interview with Obama and Palin.

Exactly. Two sides of the same coin.

Re: Vinny Cerrato to host a mid-day radio show?

Yeah, it didn't sound like that big a deal to me. Can this really be so unprecedented? Coaches have shows. Quarterbacks have shows. Are you telling me they have less day to day responsibility through the week than a GM? I would think they would have considerably more.

Seriously, JLC has blown his top.

Re: Vinny Cerrato to host a mid-day radio show?

I don't know if ppl listened to Vinny in Elliot in the Morning, but I must say that I enjoyed listening to him. I agree that JLC sounded a little bit over the top with his criticism. I agree that journalist are suppose to give their objective opinion, but sometimes it sounds like it is personal for these guys.

Ruhskins, I agree. Vinny was good on EITM. All in all, if done right this show could be quite interesting and informative. I'm sure he's not neglecting his work to do a radio show.

I think it could though. And I would at least think JLC would think so, seeing as to how he's always complaining how secretive the two of them are.

Does any other team have a GM that does this?

My thoughts too. I don't know but I'm guessing that NO other GMs in the league do this. I would think Vinny C should be pretty busy w/....hmmm...I don't know.....FOOTBALL!!!

This is pretty ridiculous. It's the middle of the season in the NFL and in college I would imagine there's plenty of other things to do other than host a radio show.

I'll name one...how about getting together a list of young, up and coming, diamonds in the rough, that could be coaching candidates in the future.

I think some, give VC some slack b/c he's employed by the skins and they're using their B&G colored glasses to see the glass half full. It's not half full w/ Vinny. He has a losing record here. That's about all that matters.

In the offseason, maybe. In season, no. Bad move by the Skins on this one.
