Matt Moscona will 100% be reading this thread, because he takes half his material from TD.

Matt, you aren't a bad guy. Just bad at your job. Make your vapid, time-slot-filling monologues less obviously contrived and faux-dramatic. As long as you completely disrespect every caller with a controversial opinion, noone will respect you.

A couple of years ago I would have agreed with you, but this isnt true. I work with Matt on a weekly basis, have for over two years now, and have brought up various topics brought up on this board to him and most of the time he hadn't heard it and asked where I was getting it from. Including threads flaming him, lol. I think at one point he may have kept tabs on the site but anytime I bring up Tigerdroppings it's all an eyes rolled reaction. The one time I actually questioned him about it he said that it was the most miserable collection of fans that post on there, and I tend to agree with him.

I know some will refuse to believe this, but this is the opinion I have formed from knowing the guy for two years.

im sure that's what Mascona thinks about any fan he cant hang up on.

I think the people that dont like mascona, are the people who have called into his show and he has made them sound stupid. And they often deserve it for being ignorant. Mascona is by far my favorite on 104.5. He just knows more and is more entertaining

Baton Rouge sports radio talk is a joke. I think anyone from Tiger Droppings that is literate could do their job just as well.

The show from 11:00AM - 1:00PM with Hanagriff, Ponamsky, Ott is pretty good though.

That's about the only show on 104.5 that I think is good. Moscona is ok...wished it was a more caller driven show. I get tired of hearing him talk non stop.

i'll give moscona credit for trying hard, but i find him to be very annoying and i cannot stand to listen to his voice.

if ott had his own show sans all his cronies, that'd probably be pretty good.

Moscona needs to learn the art of brevity. He will :beatdeadhorse:
