So when the story blew up, Fan960 increased the penalties. Or they did it simply to let the whole thing cool down.

I wasn't listening when the incident occurred, and it was clearly over the line. But as a regular listener, I know Walker and Warrener are big Rider fans and there is often a bunch of kibitzing as they rile each other up. It doesn't excuse what happened but it is easy to see how it happened.

Let Boomer sit until Bryn steps down, then put Boomer in the afternoon with Steinberg.

But they had better keep Boomer - he is one of the few guys who keep things interesting. There are a lot of guys who know their stuff at 960, but many of them (Walker, Steinberg) are pretty dry. The Fan needs Boomer.

Talk radio must be a really tough gig - to be knowledgeable, able to have and defend an opinion, and be interesting/entertaining, and to do that for hours a day, every day; anything live to air is one hell of a skill.
