Top Gear hosts have real class!!O&J not so much....

The two remaining hosts of Top Gear are turning down HUGE raises to keep the team together and possibly join Netflix with their fired partner. Jim and the flabby wonder turned bitch for minuscule raises...Fuck you Opie and your bullshit soccer dad morning show!

They will most likely get a better deal from Netflix than the BBC was offering, but I don't think they would have split regardless.
Also those guys actually like each other, whereas O&A were just putting up with each others bullshit for a paycheck.

This is really evident from 2012-2013.

no they won't, top gear was huge and came with large paychecks for sure, but they aren't money hungry cunts and they have some integrity left in them so they stuck together hence this thread.
Even if they hated each other those three british guys can figure out that only together they have a product, separately they have morning zoo radio horseshit... oh wait, wrong group.
You can't build a brand with XYZ and hope it survives with XY , it almost never happens and you have to be a retarded humorless radio host to think you can pull it off.

And had O&J walked in some bullshit sign of "solidarity," which Anthony never would have done and you never would have cried about had it been Opie that was fired, which station would have picked them up? Was everyone supposed to head over to Anthony's basement and put on a show? What about the other staff members- should they have walked too?
Separately O&J got a raise, and Anthony got to bitch about black people instead of be funny like he wanted to since 2008.
Anthony's the reason Anthony got fired. Why aren't you just as mad at Jim? He did the exact same thing as Opie (the only good option).

the staff only have a job because of the talents, now the talents have to cater to them?

ah how nice it is to ignore facts, the fact is they had to finish their run which gave them few months to plan before either leaving or re-signing. We all know what those two dolts chose, but point is that Ants studio could have been moved by then HAD THEY TALKED AND WANTED TO etc.. there goes your shitty point #1
2 , yes O&J got a raise for selling ant out and being selfish dicks, IDK what your point is here, considering topic of this thread is about Top Gear crew NOT DOING THAT I think you're just confused
3 is just a retarded point, Anthony did what Anthony does, it's irrelevant really, but what you could argue is that once again you're missing the point, THEY ONLY HAVE A PRODUCT IF THEY STAY TOGETHER, separate they are all worthless and their temporary "fortune" for O&J will run out.

You mean they could have had a studio set up in NYC like Anthony's been promising for the last 8 months? The studio that literally just fell through not too long ago? Yeah, a sure thing like that is totally worth walking away from satellite radio over.
O&J didn't sell anyone out, and Anthony would have done the exact same thing if Opie got fired over the cake stomp incident (only you wouldn't be whining about it). In fact, I'd say the only one being selfish was the guy who could not control himself about race.
Apparently they don't only have a product if they stay together, seeing as they both have done their own thing. Whether you enjoy what they're doing or not is what's irrelevant.

blowing guys for $5 does not compare to being a millionaire, yet you're claiming they are still successful under that bridge waiting for you to pull up... hmm

You have nothing, huh?

I've made my points clearly, IDK how else to explain it to you how the choices O&J&A made were the wrong long term ones for everyone involved

How many more times is this moronic point going to be posted?
6 troyquaza 2015-06-08
What were they supposed to do? Go to a drunk, obsessive racist's house everyday and do a podcast? Much better than a sure thing gig.
Anthony endangered everyone's lives in that studio and people still want to coddle him. You people are just sickening.

He was fired for tweets. Tweeting more tame shit than he's been paid to say on air. Jesus, you make it sound like he was waving a gun around in the studio. Enjoying the new direction of the show, faggot?

You're missing the point entirely. He's made thousands of tweets just like the ones that got him fired before. He's said worse things on air. there wasn't any reason to suspect he'd be canned for it. The reasons behind Ant's firing were complete bullshit. The reactionary faggots at Sirius to blame for that, not Anthony. I don't blame Opie and Jim for sticking with a paycheck, but holy shit tweets should not be considered "dangerous."

And why the fuck was this labeled NSFW?

Its NSFW because there might be some off color language in this thread.

mods please remove the salty language

Well, thank God for that then.

Everything on this sub should be labeled NSFW.

They left for a guy they actually like and went to Netflix. Opie stayed away from a basement dweller and his less than mediocre podcast. Can't say I really blame him.

The"Soccer Dad Morning Show!" with your host, Tits Hughes!! Oh..management would be very happy indeed and the boost to the LGB demo would be insane!

Oh good another Top Gear post that has nothing to do with the Opie/Anthony/Jim situation.
