All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

Shockey "fired" from local radio show

12-21-2002, 08:23 PM

Jeremy Shockey made headlines earlier this season for comments he made through the media. On Thursday, he received more attention, but this time, he didn't even say a word.
The Giants tight end did not call in for his weekly radio appearance on WFAN for the second time in two months, and hosts Mike Francesa and Chris Russo responded by calling him "unprofessional" and firing him from the show.
According to a report in the New York Daily News, Shockey, who receives $1,000 for the weekly spot, was scheduled to appear at 4 p.m. ET, but called 15 minutes late and never went on the air. ....more

I hate Mike Francesa and Chris Russo. ESPN radio is much better!

I always told my teammates never to make agreements you couldn't live up to.

I've seen a few interviews with Shockey dating back to college...The guy appears to be a primo jerk.

For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
