Gary's perfect scene would be to sit there with a steady camera on him the whole time and just spout about til kingdom come. He got to do this to a fair degree via his KNBR show but now with Kreuger there he has to share (he also LOVED when CSN simulcast the show, better to watch himself at night). Maybe he'll start a church like Scott: Church of Gary. Holy hosanna Batman!

Granted, he may be a disliked nobody even at KRON, but at least he can call the shots there.<br /><br />The real irony in this incident is his indignation at supposedly having his territory encroached upon.<br /><br />Really? From the guy who does everything he can at every opportunity to avoid doing his job -- reporting sports?<br /><br />Most of his air time is spent spouting banal banter with his co-anchors, and proffering his unwanted opinions -- not doing his job as a sportscaster.<br /><br />Otherwise, he might as well be one of those nobodies KOFY is apparently selling air time to on late nights. He'd fit right in that lineup, but he'd have to cough up the cash, instead of demanding it from the poor idiots at KRON and Cumulus.EX500https://www.blogger.com/profile/04900422854709665443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-70113177470481734172016-05-23T19:37:38.181-07:002016-05-23T19:37:38.181-07:00He's pretty close to retirement age.
