  • The Phone Number

    Jones did the same crap at 98.5- the freaking phone number every 30 seconds. People know the number Adam, you kill the flow of the show just endlessly repeating the number. My god, the same people call in every day but remind us. Worse than weather on the 8’s or news updates on the 10’s. If people want the number, they can search in 1 second. Keep killing the show’s momentum, maybe you can do Augusta sports talk… Do they have sports in Maine??? This show could be a 5 but you need to learn from F... more

  • Mego and Arcand> Jones

    Jones is an obnoxious hot take guy who talks over the two better parts of the show to try to prove he knows more or is smarter than Mego and Christian. Unfortunately he’s intolerable and the show is tough to get through because of it. I love Mego and Christian and wish it was Mego and Arcand minus that twerp Jones.

Tom Curran says Patriots haven't got worse, but also not better
Q: How solid is the Patriots' plan at tight end and safety as they build around a young quarterback?
Curran emphasizes the need for a dual-threat tight end and a reliable safety to complement a developing quarterback, noting that Byard's addition could anchor the back end while the tight end position may require a new, athletic option to pair with Hunter Henry.

Q: Do you think AJ Brown is still a realistic target for the Patriots, and what are the odds they add a top receiver?
Curran suggests the door remains open on big-name receivers, indicating there could still be a path to a high-impact signing if cap space and trade conditions align, but he stresses that it's not a guarantee and depends on how the market evolves and the team's drafting strategy.
