WWL radio analyst....he was pretty damn popular there for a while and then got fired. Anybody aware of the circumstances? I figured the truth had come out by now.

Wrong. He was widely heard because of his job, but he was not popular by any stretch of the imagination.

I think it was pretty well established that the Saints pressured WWL to fire him because of his posting on SR.com of "inside info" he gained through his job.

Apparently he was not Payton's favorite.

Kenny was pretty popular for a while. Once Buddy D left, he lost some fans

Yeah, I had kinda heard that he may have ruffled some feathers in the locker room, but I was not sure if it was because on some single incident. What would he get out of posting on SR? The feeling of importance?

I think that was pretty much is m.o. on the radio. He was constantly talking about the "real story" he couldn't divulge on the air. So he figures he'll post the info on SR.com. Only thing is, people easily figured out who he was (or else he wanted to be known).

Was this about the Joe Horn and Willie Roaf mess, or some other "real story"?

Real back story is I've heard from legit sources that he was hooked on pain pills and was doing some interviews and shite loaded.

If a tree falls in the woods and no one fricking cares to listen to it, does it really make a sound?
