It makes sense though doesn't it? I mean... They probably went in on Tuesday and had a lot of negotiating power so a new 2 year contract would likely have been drafted with their 'demands'. There was a ton of money in a budget freed up and Opie wanted a piece understandably to do 1/3 more work.
If this is true it would be the best thing to could have come from this whole mess. A Shakespearian tragedy comedy. Ant loves Jimmy. Jimmy loves Ant, but Opie also loves Jimmy. Opie hates Ant, but Ant neither likes nor dislikes Opie. Opie tells a great lie to keep Jim Loyal. Jimmy learns the truth of this lie too late. Betrayed, he must serve the remainder of his marriage to Opie, or kill the charade to force Opies hand. Only then will Jimmy reunite with his true love Ant, at the compound. Shakespearian.
I'm sure he'll do well, but he has seniority, a sophomoric level of fame and comfortability with his current position, which I'm sure he doesn't want to lose. These factors alone make me suspect that it's not him. And more importantly, Opie was listed as one of E-Rock's hero's along with Hulk Hogan. Eric is a company guy. It's not him.
Opie and Anthony still share the same agent. Eatman would not have kept the contract signing a secret from Anthony. On top of that, there is no chance Opie could have completed and signed a new contract inside of 3 days (7th-9th)
Actually, back when Bob Eatman was Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew's agent and they were re-upping Loveline, this is exactly what happened. They were offering Carolla less money, Carolla wanted Drew to wait, Eatman secretly had Drew sign and only told Adam when he asked about how the negotiations were a month or two later.
if you listened to the anthony episode of adam corolla show, corolla said he was offered 25% money of his previous radio contract while dr drew getting the same money as the previous contract, he asked eatman to all have dinner before drew re-signing for some strategy. drew re-signed and eatman didnt tell him till few months later and said he forgot, adam fired him on the spot
that's how they said it worked. it's been years, but I remember them talking about how they had to have their own companies. swear to jesus. but finding it would be like a needle in a haystack at this point.
I know they have their own companies, but thats not what "doesnt work like that". Employment or service contracts are not subject to disclosure, not even close, llc or otherwise unless its for public tender, which this isnt
This the first 'insider' post that sorta feels genuine, it gets right to the point, I really hope this is true and I hope the truth comes out on the air. I feel bad for Jimmy.
If this is true. I suspect that Ron said he'd happily walk right the fuck off the job. I guess that would also explain the veiled resentment he seemed to have for Opie this week. Interesting.. IF it's true.
I really want to believe this. As much as I dislike Opie, I would need proof.
I've been saying this all along: there is no love lost between these two. In the days that immediately followed the firing, Opie said, "I have spoken to Anthony and he wants to do his own thing now. I get that."
Anthony's response? "I never spoke to Opie. I never wanted to do my own thing. If it were up to me, I'd still be at SXM."
I think Opie used the firing to great effect. He was able to separate himself from Anthony without a messy break-up. He played the victim, continuously saying he didn't know what the future of the show would be, all the while ensuring Anthony was never coming back.
I still hold on to this: If Opie walked in to contract negotiations and said, "it's been 3 months without Anthony. The show sucks, and I won't do it without him" Anthony would have been hired. SXM clearly wanted the show back and Opie held all the cards.
The reality is, he never did that. It was never a discussion, it was never a thought. The same way he lied about speaking with Anthony, he lied about speaking with management about Anthony. Remember that BS storyline with Opie saying, "I spoke with management, they think there's a chance Anthony can come back in the near future."
Sure, Opie. You spoke with management about hiring Anthony. Was that before or after you ran numbers for the local bookies?
Opie said, "I have spoken to Anthony and he wants to do his own thing now. I get that."
Anthony's response? "I never spoke to Opie. I never wanted to do my own thing. If it were up to me, I'd still be at SXM."
Misinfo. Opie was speaking in reference to talking via text, he said that this was his feeling about Ant (made it clear he was speculating,) and most importantly, he was speaking about what he thought Ant wanted to do now that he was fired. Ant was saying he'd never talked with Opie voice-to-voice and that he would've gladly resigned if he had never been fired.
Opie distinctly said in the days following the firing, "I spoke with Anthony and I think he wants to do his own thing now."
In reference to this story Opie mentioned a few times, Anthony pointedly said that he never spoke with Opie, never wanted to do his own thing and never wanted to be fired.
The texts you're referring to are the ones jelly tits decided to leak to the Blaze, to prove he's on speaking terms with Anthony.
I have no idea about leaked texts to the Blaze, but your clarification here doesn't clarify anything. Both parties have stated that there was speaking via text in the aftermath of Ant's meltdown. I'll restate what I already said: Opie felt that because Ant was in no position to come back to SiriusXM therefore he was excited to try something out on his own. He made it clear that they hadn't discussed whether or not Anthony was excited about the prospect of his own show.
never wanted to be fired.
Quoted because this is the key point here. When asked if he had wanted to go out on his own / leave SiriusXM, Ant very clearly framed it from before he was let go. Before all the shit went down, he was absolutely ready to resign. He didn't have preliminary plans to ditch the show and do his own thing, and Opie never said he did.
This is why it's misinfo: Opie's and Ant's conflicting statements reference post- and pre-meltdown/firing respectively.
I always took Opie saying Ant wanted to do his own thing not in reference to that Ant wanted to branch out and leave the show on his own, which is the way Ant responds to the comment and most people here do. I took it as he meant: now that this situation presented itself, Anthony is looking forward to trying something new and having fun.
I agree 100% and have wrote basically the same thing several times here. What's weird is that you got up voted and I usually get people saying I'm full of shit or making up shit or whatever. It's way too obvious Opie agreed with and participated with management in getting rid of Ant. I don't see how people can't see that. It's not like a state secret, it's pretty fucking obvious.
Today he mentioned everyone misses Ant when a caller said something.
Why didn't Ant try and get Opie too and reunite the show? It's kind of scummy to go after Jimmy, leaving Opie all alone, especially when Ant is the only one of the 3 of them to be any bit responsible for the show being broken up.
Can someone give an example of how Jim has called out Opie recently? I consider Jim to be in his own world now kinda where he doesn't really give a shit about how the show sounds, but more about just getting his lines out.
Just found it, thanks dude. I don't know what to think, kinda sounds like Jim did it by accident not knowing what the video was. But then again why would he play a cell phone video at all at that moment.
He totally played that on accident. Someone probably tweeted it to him. Listen to him panic, he can't even think of something witty to say which is very unlike Jimmy. If you think he was acting, you've never seen him act.
Please stop with the accident thing and use a little common sense. Jimmy fucks around with his phone every day while he's on the air. Of all the hours and years he's been sitting next to a microphone, how many times have we ever heard a weird sound that was likely a media clip played from a phone for no particular reason (ie, an "accident") out over the air? One. And it just happens to be that bombshell? The statistical probability of that is insane.
He finally called Opie on his "we got fired in Boston on purpose" lie.
He admitted that he had long ago intentionally stopped pointing out Opie's misuse and mispronunciation of words. I can't remember what reason he gave for it, but I think the word "Greggshells" sums it up.
Maybe I'm biased because I want to believe this (The truth is out there, hoo hoo Robin!), but for whatever reason I went to Gregg's Twitter and kept my mouse wheel spinning until I hit July.
My computer's mouse has a free spinning wheel (Who gives a shit?) and I'd just let it spin while I distracted myself with my phone, and holy fuck. Every time I looked at the screen just more DOUCHINESS. I keep feeling like we ridicule this guy too much but it's not enough, it's NEVER enough for someone who is this douchey and this much of a fucking hypocrite. The Funny Mofos Daily. How did I ever put up with this faggot on the radio?
ANYWAY, maybe I'm biased because I want to believe this, but I checked his Twitter for some kind of change in tone around that time in his douchey stupid tweets, and I couldn't find it. I wanna believe this, but I just can't until I see proof.
I can prove right now that his claim is Shit! Ants name isn't allowed to mentioned, and Ant can't be promoted on the show? Then why has Opie wished Ant luck on his show a Hundres times, when he was trying to convince listeners that they are still friends and they still keep in touch?
And most importantly! Wasn't it just a week or two ago when Opie announced that Starting after the First of the year, Old material featuring Ant will Now be included on weekend shows, and how that was a sticking point in Opie's Contract
Jimmy has even said many times that he couldn't do Ants show because if the time it's on would Interfe with a lot of Jimmy's night stand up shows!
Opie signed his new contract on Wednesday July 9 2014. That is legally on record and can be researched and verified by anyone smart enough to know where to look.
Yeah sure, then hows about you show us where to look if it's so obvious. Surely if it's so easy to find then someone here would find it anyway, so why don't you just cut to the chase and tell us where to look.
If anyone could confirm the date OP stated as to when Opie actually signed his new contract it would help validate many if not all of these claims. Until then it's all here-say and I'm more inclined to believe that the reason they aren't plugging the show is because of a management directive.
Sorry, but Jim is a piece of shit. He took the money, end of story. I hope an incensed tranny prostitute takes a torch to all his stupid celebrity photographs, fucking faggot never-was that he is.
I wouldn't put it past Jim to feel some obligation to the staff and keeping them employed as part of the reason he would've re-signed with SiriusXM. Seems like he does genuinely care and try to help out people that are close to him.
I want to believe! Opie did seem to go from talking about nothing but the Anthony situation to suddenly almost never mentioning it by early August. Plus, there were plugs for TACS when it first launched, but they also largely died a sudden death.
EXACTLY!! his obvious uncomfortableness when Ant's name comes up, and the fact he has no stories of what he said or did with management to make them take Ant back, SCREAMS volumes. It is totally unlike Opie to not open his big fucking mouth about management and his own heroics whenever he even imagines he's doing something good for someone or standing his ground out of loyalty. But all of a sudden he's dead quiet about everything and he thinks management is just great??!!! WTF?? His radio partner for 20 years and he's not going to tell us everything he did to try and get him back? Yeah, that's not too obvious
Only the O&A staff got that read-receipt memo. But even if every show in that building got that memo Ron would've ignored it and the suits wouldn't have given him shit anyways b/c no one (maybe Don) would have the balls to censor Ron or tell him what to do.
"Anthony was offering Jim exactly what he was making at sxm befoee he even had revenue from his show. He was going to pay him up front for the entire year with no contract. If the cumia show failed, jim was paid out of ant's pocket. That's how bad he wanted jimmy"
I guess there is a way to verify if the gag order is real, get past the phone screener and ask Sam to give a shoutout to cumia show on the pre/post show
I wanted to believe this was true but the account is only 3 hrs old, it's probably that faggot benjamin72 trolling us, speaking of Benjamin72 or whatever the fuck his name is, he needs to be banned from this sub like right fucking now.
I've seen accusations of manipulating up/down voting with multiple accounts. I have no idea one way or the other, but here's a recent post about him (although the OP's comment has been curiously removed):
that's why you only hear ant's show brought up by guests. i don't have any idea how ron gets away with it
Except that's complete horseshit. Jimmy himself has brought up Ant's show numerous times.
The most FUCKED UP part of this whole thing is Opie signed his new contract on Wednesday July 9 2014. That is legally on record and can be researched and verified by anyone smart enough to know where to look.
Then it should be incredibly easy for such a smart gentleman as yourself to provide the evidence. Go ahead.
Opie laid the bullshit "loyalty" guilt trip on Jim and it worked. I don't know if it's the ridiculous 12-step mentality oir something from his fucked up childhood, but it worked. He was able to convince jim that he owed the staff abd was somehow responsible for their jobs
Proof?
Anthony was offering Jim exactly what he was making at sxm befoee he even had revenue from his show. He was going to pay him up front for the entire year with no contract. If the cumia show failed, jim was paid out of ant's pocket.
Proof?
After Jim got his raise and re-signed, Opie had Dara Altman send a read-receipt memo basically banning any plug for Anthonys show to everyone on staff with consequences starting with suspension without pay. that's why you only hear ant's show brought up by guests. i don't have any idea how ron gets away with it
Proof?
That is legally on record and can be researched and verified by anyone smart enough to know where to look

I really want to believe this. As much as I dislike Opie, I would need proof.
I've been saying this all along: there is no love lost between these two. In the days that immediately followed the firing, Opie said, "I have spoken to Anthony and he wants to do his own thing now. I get that."
Anthony's response? "I never spoke to Opie. I never wanted to do my own thing. If it were up to me, I'd still be at SXM."
I think Opie used the firing to great effect. He was able to separate himself from Anthony without a messy break-up. He played the victim, continuously saying he didn't know what the future of the show would be, all the while ensuring Anthony was never coming back.

Why didn't Ant try and get Opie too and reunite the show? It's kind of scummy to go after Jimmy, leaving Opie all alone, especially when Ant is the only one of the 3 of them to be any bit responsible for the show being broken up.
Why no mention of that?
7 stinkskc 2015-01-31
Because Opie is a useless joke trampling board op
7 marsgamingchannel 2015-01-31
I want to believe.
oh and Ron does whatever the fuck he wants. he's not even on opie's channel anymore, which I'm thinking has something to do with opie as well.

He did.
6 young_beard 2015-01-31
Can someone give an example of how Jim has called out Opie recently? I consider Jim to be in his own world now kinda where he doesn't really give a shit about how the show sounds, but more about just getting his lines out.
7 NimmyJorton 2015-01-31
Well, there was Hold On-gate.
3 young_beard 2015-01-31
Did Jimmy call out opie for telling him to hold on?
1 NimmyJorton 2015-01-31
Sort of. It seems like it might have been an accident... hard to explain.
4 young_beard 2015-01-31
Just found it, thanks dude. I don't know what to think, kinda sounds like Jim did it by accident not knowing what the video was. But then again why would he play a cell phone video at all at that moment.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=8UtP-TzTkI4&t=2h53m15s
3 michaelcolestie 2015-01-31
He also hummed the lyrics to a very relevant song. Fuck you all
2 stinkskc 2015-01-31
Which song?
2 NimmyJorton 2015-01-31
He definitely knew what the video was.
My theory is he was trying to show it to Roland at a quiet enough volume that Opie wouldn't have noticed?
1 -Palaver 2015-01-31
He totally played that on accident. Someone probably tweeted it to him. Listen to him panic, he can't even think of something witty to say which is very unlike Jimmy. If you think he was acting, you've never seen him act.
6 packitchofsositch 2015-01-31
Please stop with the accident thing and use a little common sense. Jimmy fucks around with his phone every day while he's on the air. Of all the hours and years he's been sitting next to a microphone, how many times have we ever heard a weird sound that was likely a media clip played from a phone for no particular reason (ie, an "accident") out over the air? One. And it just happens to be that bombshell? The statistical probability of that is insane.
1 GleepGlorpFloopdedoo 2015-01-31
He doesn't even know what to do with his hands!
0 EskimoEscrow 2015-01-31
The best theory I heard is he was going through his FB feed, the was posted by someone else and auto-played by mistake.
2 CookieHaid 2015-01-31
ME: Which video? The one I jusssst...tweeted?
4 billisinthefridge 2015-01-31
In addition to the "hold on" clip, there's the extreme emphasis he put on being a "mildly" amusing show. I hope this is real.
4 regis69 2015-01-31
Two things that come to mind:
He finally called Opie on his "we got fired in Boston on purpose" lie.
He admitted that he had long ago intentionally stopped pointing out Opie's misuse and mispronunciation of words. I can't remember what reason he gave for it, but I think the word "Greggshells" sums it up.
5 FleamanXM 2015-01-31
Stern must have heard about the contract which explains his reaction in mid-July
1 marsgamingchannel 2015-01-31
what do you mean
4 michaelcolestie 2015-01-31
Stern said right away he'd of walked if he was Opie
2 marsgamingchannel 2015-01-31
I don't know when that was though.
5 breadmoccasin 2015-01-31
Maybe I'm biased because I want to believe this (The truth is out there, hoo hoo Robin!), but for whatever reason I went to Gregg's Twitter and kept my mouse wheel spinning until I hit July.
My computer's mouse has a free spinning wheel (Who gives a shit?) and I'd just let it spin while I distracted myself with my phone, and holy fuck. Every time I looked at the screen just more DOUCHINESS. I keep feeling like we ridicule this guy too much but it's not enough, it's NEVER enough for someone who is this douchey and this much of a fucking hypocrite. The Funny Mofos Daily. How did I ever put up with this faggot on the radio?
ANYWAY, maybe I'm biased because I want to believe this, but I checked his Twitter for some kind of change in tone around that time in his douchey stupid tweets, and I couldn't find it. I wanna believe this, but I just can't until I see proof.

Opie was never in the position to fuck Ant over. Ant was the loyal one turning down opportunities.
Finally Opie is in a position to show he has integrity, and he does this instead.

Also, you give such little fucks about this place that you wrote all that. Shut up, saying you don't care doesn't make you anymore legit.
2 Moxson4 2015-01-31
I can prove right now that his claim is Shit! Ants name isn't allowed to mentioned, and Ant can't be promoted on the show? Then why has Opie wished Ant luck on his show a Hundres times, when he was trying to convince listeners that they are still friends and they still keep in touch?
And most importantly! Wasn't it just a week or two ago when Opie announced that Starting after the First of the year, Old material featuring Ant will Now be included on weekend shows, and how that was a sticking point in Opie's Contract
Jimmy has even said many times that he couldn't do Ants show because if the time it's on would Interfe with a lot of Jimmy's night stand up shows!
4 MaximumUltra 2015-01-31
Obviously would need proof to verify those allegations.
Although I wouldn't be surprised, considering the sociopath Opie is.
4 Eddie_Savitz_Pizza 2015-01-31
Yeah sure, then hows about you show us where to look if it's so obvious. Surely if it's so easy to find then someone here would find it anyway, so why don't you just cut to the chase and tell us where to look.

4 E-rockComment 2015-01-31
If anyone could confirm the date OP stated as to when Opie actually signed his new contract it would help validate many if not all of these claims. Until then it's all here-say and I'm more inclined to believe that the reason they aren't plugging the show is because of a management directive.
4 GhostofOA 2015-01-31
Sorry, but Jim is a piece of shit. He took the money, end of story. I hope an incensed tranny prostitute takes a torch to all his stupid celebrity photographs, fucking faggot never-was that he is.
2 HBK27 2015-01-31
I wouldn't put it past Jim to feel some obligation to the staff and keeping them employed as part of the reason he would've re-signed with SiriusXM. Seems like he does genuinely care and try to help out people that are close to him.
4 bushisbetr99 2015-01-31
I want to believe you, but can you point to us the proof that Opie signed on July 9? If you can, your story has instant credibility.

3 AcePainterLo 2015-01-31
I want to believe! Opie did seem to go from talking about nothing but the Anthony situation to suddenly almost never mentioning it by early August. Plus, there were plugs for TACS when it first launched, but they also largely died a sudden death.
1 jackiefreitas 2015-01-31
EXACTLY!! his obvious uncomfortableness when Ant's name comes up, and the fact he has no stories of what he said or did with management to make them take Ant back, SCREAMS volumes. It is totally unlike Opie to not open his big fucking mouth about management and his own heroics whenever he even imagines he's doing something good for someone or standing his ground out of loyalty. But all of a sudden he's dead quiet about everything and he thinks management is just great??!!! WTF?? His radio partner for 20 years and he's not going to tell us everything he did to try and get him back? Yeah, that's not too obvious
3 FresnoJefferson 2015-01-31
Only the O&A staff got that read-receipt memo. But even if every show in that building got that memo Ron would've ignored it and the suits wouldn't have given him shit anyways b/c no one (maybe Don) would have the balls to censor Ron or tell him what to do.

3 swordandpistol 2015-01-31
How you know this is 100% bullshit:
"Anthony was offering Jim exactly what he was making at sxm befoee he even had revenue from his show. He was going to pay him up front for the entire year with no contract. If the cumia show failed, jim was paid out of ant's pocket. That's how bad he wanted jimmy"
3 jameskane33 2015-01-31
That is a lot of supposition. Stick with the facts Ant can only get better, Oqie can only get worse.
3 thehighground 2015-01-31
You're an idiot, Anthony can't afford that no matter how rich you idiots think he is.
And no plugging his show? I'm pretty sure SXM has more to do with that since you know, they are the ones who fucking fired him.
3 letitride85 2015-01-31

3 jerk-ass 2015-01-31

2 JutsinBabber 2015-01-31
Anthony himself could vet the validity of this claim by confirming/denying that the offer laid out to Jimmy in the OP is correct, maybe?
2 NhaterJR 2015-01-31
I guess there is a way to verify if the gag order is real, get past the phone screener and ask Sam to give a shoutout to cumia show on the pre/post show

This is actually a good idea. Make sure you ask him to shout out to the show and not just the guy.
