Changes for the Orlando Magic Radio Network?

F

FM 100 Means Music

I just hope with all the changes to the Magic's front office, they don't limit themselves to the front office and we get some changes to the broadcast end as well.

First and foremost, get a new bed music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They've been using the same "generic synthesizer" bed for over a decade now and it was lame sounding in 2002.

Second, fire Richie Adubato. Get a color-commentator who doesn't insist on always focusing the conversation on himself.
 
I actually don't mind the old man myself... he's completely unpredictable, and I've been repeatedly amazed at some of the things he apparently thought it was a good idea to say on the air. I enjoy that... but it's probably the same part of my mind that wants me to slow down when driving past a bad car wreck too. ;D

Dennis, however... he clearly DOESN'T enjoy what comes out of Richie's mouth, and over time you can tell that Dennis has been making less and less effort to hide his annoyance with Richie's antics. That pulls down the quality of the broadcast overall... you want your on-air guys to have better chemistry than that.

So, I'd miss Richie, but yeah, I'd have to agree he needs to go, and needs to be replaced with a more conventional broadcasting partner. As for Richie himself, he might actually make a decent sideline reporter, either for the radio or even TV. I think he'd be a lot better in smaller doses.

...

Saaaaaaaaaaaaay... I hear Otis Smith is looking for a job!

(Just kidding. ;) )
 
I have to be honest. I don't mind richy or the bed for the music. I don't mind the magic broadcasts. They are awesome.
