I predict that they will never give us the proper Opie trashing that we all want to hear. Probably out of some sort of "moral superiority" or something, but I know we won't ever hear it.
Probably not. Out of appreciation for the exposure he gave them. Somebody would really have to have an axe to grind to legitimately attack him. They're comedians so there could be little jabs here and there.
Guessing this too. Over a 20 year partnership there will be fights & nagging issues, but I doubt Opie ever did anything horrible to Ant or Jim. He is just an unremarkable point guard that thinks he's scoring 20 points a game when it's really about 8.
Also when Ant went off, Opie never really denied the things Ant said. Ant just said "he'd snap at interns", and Opie seemed more hurt that Ant didn't want to be his friend and meet his kids etc. I thought being upset that Ant led the THREE DAY wedding was a little much.
I hope it goes exactly like when Anthony was fired. At first, the split was amicable. Then insecure titties inevitably says something profoundly stupid, or makes an implication that Anthony was done with SXM. Then Anthony responds, and it slowly snowballs like it did.
Anthony had serious Stockholm Syndrome while working with Opie and now Jimmy has it.
The difference between Opie and other comics is that Opie has given them all a giant platform to promote their gigs for the last 10 years. And all of them know, from experience, that Opie can't defend himself verbally so it would be kind of bullyish.
Of course I want to hear Opie mercilessly smashed as much as anyone else here but I really don't expect it. Although AzraelApollyon made a good point comparing it to Anthony finally talking about Greggshells after Opie flat-out lied about the situation on air and made Ant look kind of "bad", for lack of a better word.
I'd love it if they all got together and talked about how he was never really welcome in the cellar and just glomed onto the scene like the pale barnacle he is.
Not to mention surrounding yourself entirely with leeches who constantly build you up no matter how much you've fallen off.
Plus, you just know that he thought of himself as really close to getting all-in with the Fox crowd, maybe getting his own show there one day or even inheriting Red Eye. Never happen now with those charges and that video.
It's been a long time coming. Listen to early XM shit, like 2005 or so, it sounds like a totally different guy. Almost no race talk, 2nd amendment nonsense, just funny Anthony. He would get cunty here and there, but that's to be expected when you have to work across Spuds Buckley.
I'd go as far as 2007/2008 when Obama became a thing. That's when Anthony became unbearable. He lost his mind and became all consumed with Obama, race, socialism, and shitting his pants that the men in black are going to come take his guns away.
Anthony flat out said that if Obama is elected everything is fair game from then on. He was basically daring America to elect him so that he can finally say nigger on the radio.
He will never say a bad word about Opie,his future consists of avoiding questions about him and looking for steady work,UFC Unfiltered while enjoyable isn't where I see Jim long term,a soup kitchen is more likely.
I don't know how I feel about Opie... He's just a radio guy, who's attempts at comedy are pedestrian, but he managed to provide and interesting show for a long time. Ant & Jimmy were always the comedic drive of the show but no one should bash Opie because he did supply a platform for all these comics, who in turn entertained us... Let's try to look on the bright side right fellas?

Even Ant barely ever gives specifics. You'd think we'd have a ton of Opie-being-an-asshole stories by now, but not really.
18 ballpitpredator 2016-07-29
Because the truth is hes not an asshole (no more than ant or jim). hes just completely unremarkable.
5 I_Hate_Knickers 2016-07-29
He does have tits though. So there's that.

Opies probably not awful behind the scenes. Just an average guy who somehow ended up in over his head with people way more talented than him.

Was it the altar boy line? He definitely ruined it on the delivery, and the fact that he wouldn't just say "cum" made it awful.

Jimmy will to to the grave without ever trashing the BBBBBoys.
His gravestone will simply read - Here lies Jim Norton, returning to his natural habitat.

I'd rather hear people talk honestly about Jim.

If they're not trashing Jay Mohr they'll never trash Opie, comedians are sycophantic cowards.
9 throwawaymanthrows 2016-07-29
Ant has been able to talk openly about tits for years now, and it's been pretty predictable. I can't imagine what new insight anyone else would bring.
We know he's a whiny baby who can't take a joke. We know he's not funny. We know he's self conscious about how unfunny he is.
What more can be said, really?
5 packitchofsositch 2016-07-29
They could say the same things, but unlike Ant who isn't capable anymore, say them in a funny way.
11 throwawaymanthrows 2016-07-29
It's sad, really. Ant used to be a funny fucking guy. I guess depression, unemployment, alcoholism, and domestic violence charges can really ruin you.

Has he even been on Red Eye since he stomped Danny?

Yep.

He was genuinely likeable.
Where did it all go wrong?
4 throwawaymanthrows 2016-07-29
Hard to say exactly where. My guess is somewhere between showering with his dad and the spaghetti hitting the wall.
2 Folken-braggart 2016-07-29
When Anth was 13 and his dad sold him to his disgraced Marine buddy Buzz. That's why he stayed 13 for the rest of his life.
3 ShetUp 2016-07-29
Patrice talking about Opie's tits in front of him was good enough.

They gonna milk the O&J show untill Lady Di is honorably discharged

Jim and honesty
2 RacistPigeon 2016-07-29
I don't care if they do, really. I have enough fun shitting on that big titted piece of shit myself.
2 jaghutgathos 2016-07-29
Maybe they don't all have a psychotic obsessive hatred for the man the way most people here do. Maybe?
1 Dennyislife 2016-07-29
Yeah Opie would have to fuck someone over for them to turn on him.
1 Grillskillz 2016-07-29
But will he...
1 rejesterd 2016-07-29
They won't. Bottom line is that Opie's show gives them more exposure which means more money for them in the end. They won't mess with that.

Jimmy won't do it because he has loyalty.
Not loyalty to his fans, of course, but to this big-titted zilch who ruined Jimmy's best creative outlet.

I dont know what I expected. I deserved that I guess... You really think Opie was all in all that bad? Or is it just me and my naive assesment? :)

he's fucking terrible
