No more bashing of Kevin Mathews... - born2bone - 12-08-2008
Saw this on the news this morning. It is very sad.

Is MS the reason he is a unfunny, know-it-all, drunk who is way past his prime and needs to hang up the microphone? If not I will continue to make fun of him!

I don't want to be a dick here, but why hold a press conference for this? Why not just announce it on your radio show, and be done with it. This screams "ATTENTION WHORE."

I don't think it screams attention whore. Not for anything else, he is drawing attention to the disease by using his celebrity status. I hope it works out for him. Being an unfunny eff doesn't warrant a debilitating disease.

I hope this is true, and I agree, nothing warrants a disease like this.

I also thought that him holding a news conference was kinda douchey. But I can now understand why. I still cant stand him as a person, but I feel bad he has MS.

It is pretty disrespectful. The man is a competitor. FBHW have no problems with the man as a man. He is a competitor in the local market. Show some respect and don't just berate a man sitting behind a computer screen. Eff off.

Bottom line: I don't think anyone here is disrespecting his disease. I don't wish stuff like that on other people. What were saying is just because he has MS now doesn't change our perspective of the fact that he's a douche!

I don't think they'd be making jokes of a disease as you are suggesting, houseboat. That is the point this thread has turned into. It is cruel, mean, and honestly, I cannot imagine you would say anything to his face along those lines because you are so damn tough behind a computer screen. Man up or shut the Eff up.

For the record: We beat up on Kevin in a purely competitive manner. True we were vicious at times. But he's been in worse wars before. Plus, he gave it back and then some. As he should. We feel badly that he has MS and we wish him nothing but the best. I agree. Please lay off of him. We are done attacking him on the air. We had already stopped before Kevin got sick.
Thank you

I just seen Kevin's story on the news. It is very said and I know a lot of people are praying (myself included) for him and his family. I think a lot of us FBHW fans knock him a lot for the broadcast wars and his attacks on FBHW's and vice versa. But I think we can all agree that this is WAY bigger than a feud between morning radio shows. On a side note...Zane, you kick ass! but its past your bedtime, we don't want you to be sleepy tomorrow during the show and fall victim to pronouncing words like FB does.

That's right. Tuck your tail and run, houseboat.

Can we turn this into a Joe Stunt? I.E., Do an interview with him and ask inappropriate questions?

Or we can have Stephanie Webb replace Joe and be the inappropriate one to ask questions!

Wow, I must be completely horrible at being sarcastic! I wasn't attacking Kevin, I was attacking the statement and, well, the person (dumberthanzane) who posted the comment above me.

"dumberthanzane" is obviously a troll and is starting to piss me off.
