O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Note: If you're going to respond honestly to this thread, leave your fanboy loyalty of Opie and Anthony at the door. I am sick of this Opie and Anthony Fight versus don and mike. One show sucks in NY, and the other sucks in DC. These two shows act like they don't get the same paycheck from the same company and they constantly have battled eachother. The victims of this battle are their ratings on both coasts, and it's just ridiculous to not at least pretend that you like the show on your station. Basically, this whole thing is about four children with egos the size of planets, doing a fucking pissing contest off of a bridge. Fuck this whole thing. Both shows entertain me, one much more than the other, but unlike the hardcore fans of both shows, I read between the lines and see that both fucking shows do their own "our shit don't stink" spins. Between what these shows both say, there is the real truth. "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Very well said, and true. Well, except for the part about D&M being entertaining, I don't see it at all. That's just my opinion of course. quote: Like that's gonna happen. There are just as many O&A drones as there are Stern drones, and most of them reside here. Av8er Radio [AIM] [ICQ] [E-Mail] | ||||

Hanger-On Registered: Apr. 02 | There is a clear difference in "brand of humor" between the shows - O&A reflect a younger, more progressive audience while D&M control the baby boomer demographic. IMO - D&M will be ripped to shreads perpetuating a battle with O&A - I don't think they can hang with the intensity and harshness of the O&A response. Have to wait and hear this afternoon - | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | I assume you are talking about O&A & D&M themselves, and not fans. The fact that they work for the same company is irrelevant (See Stern vs everyone). Remember also that the Yankees of the late '70's won World Series together, but they hated each other. Same was said of Oakland A's of early 70's. There are issue between the two shows, mostly relating to ego (which is not uncommon with media people). If the story is true (or even if they think its true) that D&M tried to knock O&A out of the afternoon drive before the contract was re-upped, then I could understand why O&A would would dislike D&M; If D&M feel that they should be in the afternoon drive because of their history and body of work, then I can understand why they dislike O&A. Normally all of this goes on behind closed doors, but both shows have a history of discussing issues in the public forum. Is it good? probably not. Will it stop? also probably not. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (You gotta believe....) 1. 94 Wins and NL East Title by the Mets this year 2. Hate the Braves with PASSION 3.

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 01 | Don isn't coming clean on this.If,as Peter Dragon mentioned,Don tried to grab the 3-7 spot in NYC from O&A by using his relationship with GM Ken Stevens,can you blame Opie for snubbing the D&M show forever?Come clean,Don. Don and Mike are now on their last legs in NYC and are grabbing at whatever they can to stay standing.Blaming the lack of cooperation between shows on WNEW for their poor performance in the ratings is an attempt to buy more time.Tick,tick,tick,Don. My absolute favorite O&A shows are when Opie is boiling mad;I hope he's been listening today! | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Like I said before, both shows act like everything they say is true and their shit doesn't stink. I agree with peter dragon. It's all about ego "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I just heard O&A's side of the fight and I say that they have won. It was just great. But I still say that there is the truth lurking between O&A and Don and Mike. Neither side is being completely truthful. "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01 | - O&A are very funny, and i always listen if it is humanly possible. (this applies to Ron and Fez as well) - Don and Mike are rarely funny. whenever i have listened, at least 1/2 of the show was spent either yelling at callers, talking to frita, or talking about their boring lives. i have, on occasion, found them funny during actual bits that dont involve them, because i dont like them as people. -Don and Mike suck in New York. -O&A are doing better in DC, but not as good as D&M were. O&A haven't been there forever, though. Only a few months AIM | E-MAIL | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Wow! A member of this board actually said something slightly positive to say about the DOn and Mike show? that's the first and last time i'll ever see that "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: May. 00 | quote: I remember you! Well said vegeta. The truth is that WNEW as a whole is low rated. Other stations like hot97 and z100 are beating the station in the ratings. This "war" makes out for entertaining radio, but I do wish that both sides just act as team players. Leah pointed out that on TV, on Everybody loves raymond they wouldnt say anything against the king of queens since its on the same network like these two shows are. The real problem is management. They are letting egos run amuck. A true station manager would package the shows right and the other shows would help each other. On other radio stations do you hear other DJs fighting each other?? NO! The problem is only exclusive to WNEW, and that could be the death knell of the station. ...But O&A arent going anywhere anyway. - AIM:lentnyc | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Well, Vodak, my screen name has nothing to do with anything. Why don't you create a thread that actually matters, faggot? Truth is, people hear don't even pay enough attention to me here to actually hate me like they should. But when I post something that actually is somewhat interesting, they respond. If I sucked, there would be a ton of 0 threads with my name on it. "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Day 2! 1. Don and Mike call O&A "Greg and Acne" Wha? I would never expect something so simply juvenile. 2. Don and Mike tell their their listeners that O&A's doing their own spin and Don and Mike tell the truth. Please. Both these shows are doing their own spin on the story. What liars. 3. Don and Mike say AGAIN that they were the part of the war that extended the olive branch and they're the passive ones in this fight. I think that both parties are equally guilty in the mudslinging and whatver peace that would be reached would be fake and short lived. "You don't know who I am? Fool! Don't make me bitch-slap you!" | ||||
