Dumb
When do we riot?
I wanna upvote, but I don’t like this news
What the heck? It sounds like there was no reason given. I listened to a good number of radio games this year and thought he did a good job
Jack and Jerry are honestly the only thing that made watching the Rockies bearable these past few years.
When we said we need organizational upheaval, we didn’t mean the broadcast crew!? What the heck, I love hearing Jerry on the radio
iHeart Media is just like the rest, do it as cheaply as possible and don’t worry about the listeners.
AGAIN?! JESUS
This is bullshit. He was with the Nuggets before the Rox– maybe Altitude can hire him (obv don’t want to push out Koz though, but maybe they can share).
Better yet, get him on TV for the Rox
Iheart media is the worst. Have absolutely ruined terrestrial radio
Again? This happened during Covid and there was enough of a backlash that they reversed it. I doubt enough people will take note this time around.
How has this happened a second time?
is there a local iheart email I can complain to? Jack and Jerry are the best in the business
SAD!
They probably try and replace him with remote broadcasters watching the MLB.tv stream and switching between multiple games.
Glad to have met him this year
Great
The last thing I liked about the Rockies, gone.
Fuck
How are there still ways to disappoint me left? Piss in my fucking cereal why don’t you??
