Lately a lot of you have been talking about sports talk radio. It reminded me of a guy who used to have a national show that was based in LA and we heard it on WFAN. This guy Scott Farrell was hysterical. He used to do a 10PM show and he always played a sound clip of a beer being poured. Last time I saw him he was doing that show Battle Dome. Now someone tells me he does Atlanta Thrashers games. Anybody know why he doesn't have a show?

i think the fact that he sucked was a pretty good reason. and he does do the thrasher games on the radio, you did hear right there.




All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin’ the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it’s not sane, It’s not sane

I loved that guy..he rocked.....he went to atlanta to do the games..they wound up having announcers by committe, and we was fired halfway through the season...last time i saw him was on a very bad show called "Battle Dome"

i wish he's come back and do the Bench

YOUR THE MAN!

NO your the oneyourthemanyourtheoneyourtheman YOUR THE MAN!!!

i used to love that..the dude had his beer and Jagr-shlager, and he always had kickass music in the backround, which just added to a very cool show. he was a dude who would screw around, but he knew his skinny, he knew his stats...he was just fucking awsome.

He's be great late night radio on WNEW if they would allow sports talk for one god-f'ing shift.

Westwood One got rid of Farrell because he took the job with the Thrashers, when they were against him doing that.

Bad Career Move for Mr. Ferrall. which by the way is the correct spelling. Even though it is pronounced Ferrell.

I don't know how old some of the links are, but it looks like he is doing a show out of LA and Vegas on the SportsFan Radio Network -- Ferrall on the Bench.

It's true he was very entertaining, but he was more of a hockey guy, so he really didn't fly in Mew York. He sounded exactly like Dennis Leary hoo hoo hoo

I just got a magazine with an ad that said he will be an announcer in the new Playstation game "Blast Lacrosse." I guess they found his voice edgy. You guys are bringing back some memories. I remember trying to talk that fast and I never could. He was like Mad Dog but he's with it. I hope he comes to New York.

He was an "aquired" taste. I hated him at first, but after a couple weeks(I work nights) he grew on me. Better then some, but not as good as others. That other station on 620 should pick him up for late nights. I can't listen to the hosts they have now.

I shucked it, and I shucked it, and I shucked it, i'm quite the mother shucker!

he used to work for them when that station was only out in Las Vegas..when the company moved to chicago, he went to LA and was picked up by westwood one syndication and was put all over the country.

On the web site (thanks a mil Mayor) they wanted people to contact sports radio stations. I think I will talk to the fan and the 620 station (Even though I can get it on LI)

I remember he also did sports updates on MTV a while ago. And did anyone watch "The Outside the Lines" about 6 years ago on sports radio. It featured Mike and the Mad Dog and Scott Ferrel. That was the first time I had heard of him and he was hilarious on that show. Then the next day M&MD called him a joke on their show.

Rowelentless and Unicron, I know you guys will be interested in this -- Bob Raissman reports that Ferrall will be doing the overnight show (1:00 - 6:00 am) on the FAN tonight (Friday 08/31); I confirmed this on wfanradio.com.

Ferrell was pretty cool, especially with the beer and stuff, but he did have a tendency to get really annoying really quickly. Picture a mix between Mad Dog and Jim Rome, with a shitload of speed mixed in there. He never really caught on with the "main stream" media and was relatively disliked by his co-workers, so he was eventually let go. He does have a radio show out in California, and did mess around with MTV events and the UPN show Battle Dome.

Thanks for the info. I guess this means Ann Liguori is gone. She was nice to her callers, but really a novelty.

Ann Liguori isnt doing the show because she is covering the US Open.

Ann Liguori has been stinking up the Radio on Weekend Overnights for over a Decade Now.

She knows absolutely Nothing, and is a bore. She doesnt even take calls, she lets her guests answer them. And she has guests from sports that nobody gives 2 shits about.

Hopefully Ferrall will stay on the weekend overnights. It will be the first time since the early 90's when Ian Eagle did the Weekend Overnights, that there is something worthy of listening to.

Hey Francine, you mean you do not like the "hey Liguori, whats the story" line? God I wish rape on her. Die ma'am, hit a tree and taste your own blood!
