Opie fucked ant over? In what galaxy? If Ant didn't take to Twitter the way he did, the show would still be together. I dont think he should have been fired but what he did was reactionary and inconsiderate to the people who's jobs depend on him. What if the whole show got fired, that means Opie and Jim lose their.jobs and travis Sam troy erock sal/Adrian all either get fired or go to some other show.
It's bewildering that anyone can say Opie fucked Ant over.
I think you're going out pretty far in a limb saying he probably agreed with Sirius. That first show he seemed genuinely broken up and emotional about it.
And I agree that Ant was doing what he always did and sirius panicked and they're ultimately the bad guy here. Just saying out of. Opie and Anthony, Anthony shoulders more of the blame than Opie should.
Couldn't have said it better myself. Ant was the one who inconsiderately put everyone's jobs in jeopardy. Why is Opie getting hate for wanting to keep his job?
Opie is at fault for signing a 2 year contract. By doing that he's effectively prevented Ant from coming back for 2 years. If they wanted a 1 year contract It would seem possible ant may have been able to return to air later this year. Everything has blown over.That is how opie fucked over Ant.
Opie sure went to bat for Troy who screamed gay slurs repeatedly at another employee on the air and repeatedly threatened to assault him off the air. Troy was not fired and is now back in good standing with the company.
ok FAGGOT. Dude, YOU'RE A FAGGOT. You're gay. YOU SUCK PENISES. I'll beat your fucking ass right now outside. Come outside with me right now. Dude I'll fucking follow you to your house and beat your fucking ass, FAGGOT.
I'm guessing that Opie over the past few weeks has been unwittingly interviewing his future replacement in some of the guests like Stuttering John. I can't see how management wants to keep him. Jimmy is great but not a first mike by any means, he's a good second banana.
I love Jimmy, but why hasn't he offered to mediate between Oqie and Anthony? Why did it take Stuttering John to offer to broker a meeting between the two? Shouldn't Jimmy have been the one to do it?
Whatever the case, hope something comes through. I just got into O&A at the end of 2011. Sad things came down to this once I cut Howard Stern out of my listening habits.
People really sure do hear what they wanna hear I guess. This was fine, not uncomfortable really. Opie just said what he thought about the situation. I notice people post stuff here saying "wow so douchey and uncomfortable" and I listen to the show later and it rarely even registers and more often than not I'm going "what? That's it?"
Just watched the episode. It was an okay conversation but people in here are obviously trying to advertise for him.
Opie wasn't on the show
Ant was a laughy idiot on the show.
Anthony whined and complained that there wasn't "solidarity" and a threat from Opie to quit when he got fired. Remember, this was Ant's lack of self control that got him fired, but I guess he expected everyone to quit their jobs and drive out to long island.
And it wasn't ant's lack of self control that got him fired it was because sirius wanted rid of him and found a excuse to fire him.
Ant gave them an excuse to fire him. You cannot absolve him from responsibility for what happened. With all the "fired so fired" knowledge, it was a lapse in judgement that night which led to his eventual firing. SiriusXM is spineless and doesn't want any real controversy. Ant also knows that.
You don't know me or anyone in my life so your opinions are moot. You are a shallow cunt of a boy. You think that forcing yourself onto that poor Fijian girl wipes out the fact that you are a worthless bigot. You have more opinion than common sense. I have entertained you with this back and forth because I had some free time.
I'm done with you now. Go back to being the coolest.
Wow Skippy, doesn't your nearest metropolitan area offer you better chances to interact with people and improve your interpersonal communication skills?
You like to throw around accusations using volatile hot button terms that people usually whither in front of.
You are exposing nothing.
Racist - a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
I don't believe that a particular race is superior to another. Let's say that I do. Since I don't hate myself I would have to pick the white race. You are white. I would be forced to believe that you are superior to all other members of all other races. TO HELL WITH THAT!! You are the worse kind of person regardless of the skin you were born into.
Golden point.
Arguing with you is like wrestling with a pig in the mud. After a few go arounds, you realize that the pig likes it.
Again, that is something that requires a great deal of context which was not given. You are wrong about what you think you know. It's not hypocritical to state that Ant has regrets about how he handled Twitter the night he was assaulted.
As I pointed out before you are a pig in the mud. Oink.
Perhaps if he had TALKED to Opie after the incident and said "OK let's blow it up and I'll get started on putting O&A podcast together, I'll get a studio in NYC" instead of going immediately to his own show. Why would Opie threaten to quit when Ant was moving on immediately. This is where COMMUNICATION needed to come in. And nobody say it's on Opie, it's not. This was Ants fault, the onus was on him.
I don't think Opie held him back at all, they brought out the best in each other. The best shows were O&A&J and after than just O&A. Nopie shows were okay but not as good as all 3 or just O&A, despite the revisionist history.
Absolutely. Both shows are decent but not as good as classic O&A. Anth let his emotions get the best of him when he was assaulted. It was up to him to reach out. Sirrius cowered. That was pretty lame but it was Anth's actions that caused the show to blow up.
Agreed, just Opie reading the day's story let Anthony fire off one liners and movie quotes from the background. That's why and O & A will always be funnier Ant to me than TACS Ant.
Whatever the case, hope something comes through. I just got into O&A at the end of 2011. Sad things came down to this once I cut Howard Stern out of my listening habits.

I'm confused by this, so stuttering John was on O&J, not TACS, and saying stuff about Ant to Opie?

Stuttering John was on TACS last night and O&J today. He talked about Opie yesterday and Anthony today.

What are you talking about?
Opie is too scared to go on the show
Maybe he actually finds John funny
Ant said he was cool that O & J signed a new deal
And it wasn't ant's lack of self control that got him fired it was because sirius wanted rid of him and found a excuse to fire him.
9 xBrianSmithx 2015-02-11

Ant has even backtracked on the tweet "... I called her a fucking &$;;-: cause that's what she WAS!" saying that he would never admit to it again.
No one in their right mind thinks Ant handled that night well.

someone who sits on Afro calling something a 'dead chat' is highly amusing.

Your third bullet point is so true.
Perhaps if he had TALKED to Opie after the incident and said "OK let's blow it up and I'll get started on putting O&A podcast together, I'll get a studio in NYC" instead of going immediately to his own show. Why would Opie threaten to quit when Ant was moving on immediately. This is where COMMUNICATION needed to come in. And nobody say it's on Opie, it's not. This was Ants fault, the onus was on him.
