Ted Sarandis lands at WATD (sort of)

I often wonder how Touch Down Teddy is paying his bills these days. I heard he paid cash for his condo at Seal Harbor in Winthrop several years ago so their is one nut he doesn't have to crack. Very talented guy but... ok I am not going to go off on another tangent..

Pretty much everything ATD runs on the weekends is brokered so I guess someone is buying the time and selling sponsorships.
 
Ted and Coach Skinner.
Sounds like it is a solid show for anyone who likes college basketball.
Not many around here follow college stuff though.
Still good job WATD putting something real and unique on even if it isn't my cup of tea.
 
8 games today here at county forum ahh the good old days.
 
I could never stand him... perhaps the most humor-challenged, uptight host in Boston sports radio history.

Interviewed Ted many years ago. He has a sense of humor, certainly, just a very dry one.
 
Ted certainly marched to a different drummer than the rest of the WEEI hosts. Ted definitely would have been more at home in an area of the country where college sports are big. I spent a lot of time in Nebraska, and Big Red is everything. I also had occasion to be in Columbus, Ohio for a couple of years. The Ohio State-Michigan game is as big, if not bigger than Red Sox-Yankees. He was humorless, but I did enjoy that he gave short shrift to the celebrity callers.

This AM Minihane smacked down Everett, the race baiting caller to D&C which reminded me a little of Ted's beat downs. That was entertaining. Usually when I hear the likes of Danny from Quincy, Steve from Fall River, Jack from Lynn, and others, I can't hit the button fast enough. If I thought that someone was going to humiliate them I'd stay on the station. I get the impression that the hosts have been told to be nice to callers. I agree with that as long as it's a reasonable person. But these "celebrity callers" make the same speech every time until finally they get blown up or hung up on.

The 1959 Univac bit the dust, so I'm posting this on a new Chrome Book(who says I'm not with it?) I hope this posts
 
one of the reasons I stopped listening to EEI is the celeb callers. They are awful human beings. most of them are banned from sports hub but some occasionally get thru.
