Opie

Is witty, intelligent and adds far more value to the show than merely "steering the ship," PERIOD. That is all.

nice try ople

Nice try spelling

Look at OP's name.

Take a lap.

Gnarly thread man! Check it out! WE GOTTA GET IT TO THE TOP OF THE REDDIT FRONT PAGE!! YAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

HELLO

Let's show Opie (OP) some love, reddit!!

Yes, show some love for the (board) Op!

I SMELL BIT

We'll that's just like your opinion man.

OPIEnion

You said it, man.

i dunno if this is sarcastic or not, im too drunk at the moment, but let me just say this... and I think it's something to consider. Without Opie, there is no Anthony. and I don't mean literally that without opie, ant would be knocking tin, Opie allows everyone to be funnier around him, which is noble. I know I'd like the spotlight if I were in his position, and in allowing Ant, to be Ant... he allows Jimmy to be Jimmy... andd im not naive enough to think that the Opester tries to get a line in her or there, sometimes yea it sucks, sometimes its pretty fucking funny,,,

and even though I agree, somewhat that opie did steer the ship (nowadays not so much) thats not the point. without opie, there is no anthony, there is no chip, or uncle paul or fucking cregg schinkle...no im not giving him too much credit, someone has to be the straight guy, the guy that isnt quite as funny, for everyone to spin off of. A lot of the pot talk mondays were opies thoughts expanded upon by ant and jim, as well as countless other breaks that at surface value don't have anything to do with opie, but really, have everything to do with opie

im drunk too and i didnt read a singklt thing you posted.

bes tposxt ever

You make Opie out to be some incredibly selfless person. He "allows" them to be funnier than him? Please. He makes more money than anyone else on the show and contributes the least. Yeah, I think I'd be such a noble being as well if I had that gig.

Tony and Gregg make the same amount of money.

This thread has got me howling.

Hopefully it has legs and goes viral.

We love this thread. I'm not just talking for myself,but the show...er..reddit community. That's what I do. I say we,because I speak for all of us.

APPRIL FALLS!

I think the Opster has been great for the last few years. Aside from kidchat2.0, he's way more laid-back and constructive in discussions than previously. But I will give you that mid-2000s shows are near-unlistenable because of his constant need for recognition. During that period, he acted as the big, greasy hand on the brake lever during an Ant-Jim-comedian riff session more times than is countable with human numerals.

What? You don't like when Jimmy will always blame white people in power or the media for cow towing to minority groups and not the groups themselves? Talk about the often referenced "paternal" "Poor black people. They can't help it" racial cop out. Isn't that what Jim does? And if he references another instance of his "honest" racial discussions with Keith Robinson and Patrice one more f**ckin time. I can't be racist--my friends are blacks,and we talk race all the time. Shut up!! I know you're probably not racist Norton, but stop overtly justifying!

Has anyone listened to Anthony's podcast by himself? Yuck! The chemistry of all three is the reason I listen to the show. Nothing more annoying than when Ant is steering the ship without Opie. "Going to uh..take a little uh..breakie..as they say" (use reeeeally funny voice when saying this) Ooof

Horrendous. Push it fo'ward. Holy fuck. I was all in. He was all in. They were aaaalllll in. The jeeeuuuu. Can you get that on the Facebook, erock? I'll retweet that.

Are you on mushrooms again dude?

Lmao first post ever. This is so totally Opie as fuck.

But I agree, don't worry Op' I'll always love you.

OP, much like Opie, just wants attention.

I like this new version of opiesucks more.

He's brilliant during jocktober..

What's going on in this thread?! Anything I should comment on?

Don't let that stop you.

what is this identity theft nonsense?!?!

Opie isn't the funniest guy in the world, but he brings an everyman quality to the show. Makes me think that's how I'd be in the studio, trying to keep up with ridiculously funny people.

What exactly is the purpose of the endless discussion about the value of opie... ? It's all been said at this point. It seems redundant to keep pontificating as to if the show would've somehow been better minus the sole person responsible for its existance.

"Source: I am Opie"

What bet did you lose? Hahah!

It's not witty, it's not intelligent and it's an easy target...

But it's one of 'The Destroyer's finest moments.

This along with has-been corner have been Opie's few bright spots. But they were terrifically cringe-worthy.

I personally wouldn't go that far on the mid-2000s shows, but Opie definitely has mellowed. I always liked him/his contributions, but I find myself liking this version of him even more.

If you haven't already, check out the Tommy Lee call in.

He is. I recently started playing Candy Crush because of him

I'm stuck on level 10 :(

level 10

lel, i'm on level 201.

It's the damn jelly.

Agreed.

You understand that you're too infamous to be trolling on this subreddit right?

[deleted]

I think that people who hate on opie have no idea what it takes to get that show to be as great as it is. If he wasn't around this would be a subreddit for Scott and Todd

Yeah it took discovering two hilarious fuckers and then trying to stay relevant.

But let him continue to steer the ship. "NOOOooooooo"

Yep. I can't imagine a full week of just Ant, Jim and Sam. I already hate Sam as 4th mic. I wonder where /u/opiesucks is?

Looks like we found /u/opiesucks evil twin. Look who posted this thread. I can't wait for the two of them to go back and forth.

Sorry that you can't imagine greatness. You must be in the autism spectrum.

Nope. You all suck!
