Wbl-we Support You

[Boz]

It sounds like there was a lot of negative stuff coming in today on the instant feedback. But regardess of whatever happens and whatever you have to do, we are there for you.

No, I am not the voice of Wackbag, but I believe the majority of your FANS will support the above statement.

[WOWmagnet]

Um, yeah!...what he said, I think....

[thegreatgazoo]

Hang in there and good luck.

[Polack]

Whos is is this?

[Manton]

Well of course you support - you aren't allowed to criticize on wackbag.

[zammers]

I agree - sounds like people were just bashing them on the Instant Feedback. While I didn't enjoy the show today for obvious reasons, I still support the gang.

YOUR MOM'S BOX!!!!!!

[Ballbuster1]

Well of course you support - you aren't allowed to criticize on wackbag.
Well, that's bullshit but whatever.........
of course we support the show. I remember the 2 years we spent without
a show. I don't want to go thru that again. O&A know that their true fans
are with them all the way.

[23 Skidoo]

Hang in there, Professor. We love ya, man.

[bethm1b]

I support the boys no matter what. Got my mohegan sun tix today!!!

[J. PETERSON]

O&A know that their true fans
are with them all the way.
x2.
Amen brotha!

[Kurto2021]

I can't wait for the podcasts.....I wonder how long till the FCC and press gets pissed at those?

[23 Skidoo]

O & A All The Way. That's What I Say.

[BCH]

Well of course you support - you aren't allowed to criticize on wackbag.

It's amazing to me this board's critics claim at exactly the same moment that wackbag is criticizm free and the all negative board. They are mutually exclusive aren't they?

It's a Fan site, for Fans of the show.

Personally, I remember watching a FUCKING COUNTDOWN TIMER for a year and a half on opieandanthony.com. I remember downloading the scratchy almost inaudible Maxim interview in 3 parts just to hear some fresh material. I don't give a shit what happens right now, I'm behind O&A 100%

[Cunt Smasher]

I cannot in good conscience ask the boys to sacrifice their careers over principle.The statement that came from XM was maybe not an apology exactly,but still more than was needed,IMO.If the media runs with it and it blows up,it's a different ballgame.For now,the boys know the inside stuff,and I'll follow their lead.

[Arch Stanton]

When things are great I have been known to say What a ride this show is on and how lucky I am to be on it with them.

I still am.

*edit: Goes for this place too. Very lucky to be on the ride.

[TeenBungle]

this whole apology thing is fake controversy. the ppl calling them out on it need to get lives. seriously. i can see why the ones who love the show, myself included, want to defend it. but why are ppl on this site, registering to it, and spending time taking shots at them while they are down. i hate stern and if he was going through the same situation right now i would NOT waste a second rubbing it in and calling him out on some silly thing he said and isn't living up to. my rant is nonsensical but i hope you try to get some rest Ant, Ope, and Jimmy, and try not to stress out too much. we all care about you and you'll come through. don't let a few dickhead "fans" to upset you even more than you already are.

[abudabit]

What's wrong with pointing out hypocrisy. It's not like we're saying we won't listen or don't understand that they were forced to, but they have talked shit about people for apologizing, and so have so many of the people who are now defending the O&A apology. What's wrong with just saying it's hypocritical and moving on? It doesn't make you less of a fan, it just means you're an honest fan.

[Big Dick Mcgee]

I'm with you guys till the bitter end. I will always support my boys.

what i'm saying is that perhaps you should not kick them while they are down and if they survive this then kick them all you want. and did any of you really believe they wouldn't apologize or do what they have done in this situation? perhaps you have to sto idolizing these ppl and putting them up on pedastals maybe then you won't have your feelings as hurt as they are now

[cosmic cow]

America.....fuck you

[jagsfans]

O&A said during the Imus thing that you apologize once and move on. Don't fan the flames. As far as I can tell that's what they did. They are'nt compromising and Ope and Ant are the best ones to leave in charge of slavaging this situation.

[patbattlefield]

America.....fuck you

[xdrozzyx]

I'm new to the board but not to the show. I support the boys and will cancel my sub if they are canned.

Do other countries go through this nonsense/fucking bullshit or our we special? I've been to Canada a few times and things seem so simple.

Blame Canada....

Have we become the pussies that France was and is?

[RMM46]

Good luck, bro!

Just kiddin'.

Though I have come to love Ron & Fez, if XM kicks your show off, my subs are gone, too.

[BroGonzo]

Ant, hang in there! We're all on your team (fuck the trolls).

I don't idolize them. I stopped idolizing them years ago, when I found out about certain things which aren't allowed to be mentioned on this message board. All I did was talk some truthful shit on the false bravado.

Dude, during the Imus thing, they said "You apologize once, and you move on." Isn't that what they did? Where's the supposed hypocrisy?

[habeasrob]

Did anyone else hear Sharpton on Hannity and Colmes, he was debating the guy from the Imus show, and Sharpton asked him, if you believe your nappy headed ho comments wasn't wrong why did you apologize.

You don't apologize for saying what you did. You apologize "if it caused someone to be offended." There's a difference.

[LadyDi'sTrain]

...thoughts and prayers...

[Smokezilla]

Keep doin' what you've been doin', WBL. Stay the course!!!! I can't even believe that this whole Condy Rice thing is an issue. It's a sad day in this great nation of ours when you can't make fun of a public official. Who's pushing this issue anyway??? Jerry Falwell???

[NullNVoid]

Most importantly WBL, always remember this: It's down the road, not across the street!






:action-sm jfwy... hang in there bro

[kvuo]

if xm does something stupid to the boys i'm dumping my 2 subs, and selling my lil' position in XMSR stock. Good luck bro, indeed!

[Ucant]

Been a member for a few, haven't posted. I think this warrants a post. GL Ant, I sent xm an email threating to cancel my sub. :( , seems insignificant, but it's all I can do.

[nic668]

America.....fuck you


:clap:


FUCK AMERICA AT THIS POINT WE ARE A NATION OF PUSSIES....its fucking sad

[dodisman]

I think the boys handled it great today...not sure it could have been handled much better...they had a sense of humor about things...i have faith in XM on this one...the show is too important to the platform...great work WBL...you'll get through this

[Business_class]

Love you, love the show.

[Ponderous]

Thoughts and Prayers...


Ok, honestly. The thought of losing the OnA show AGAIN makes me sick. I'm with you bro. I just hope CBS and XM grow a backbone this weekend and stand by their talent. The Opie and Anthony program is the best thing on radio, period.

[Rackrunner]

Loved the apology that really aint. Just please don't go on the Imus world tour. We all saw that bird hit the ground.

[cokelogic]

http://www.cokelogic.com/temp/newbb.jpg

If XM fucks show over the show, I'm cancelling my sub. Hugh and Elo already have e-mails waiting in their inbox letting them know.

[fearofGRRs]

I first heard this show on XM so I never had to deal with the loss that some of you had to go through. If it's all the same with everyone I would much rather not find out.

Wbl, I support you and the entire crew.

[brancle1177]

Are they hypocrites for apologizing, maybe. But if you have to apologize for something ( because upper management is making you) what better way of doing it then the way the boys did it. A fake, corporate written apology on free fm followed by a crumpling of that apology and then another corporate apology being read with the bell (we all know what that means ) being rung numerous times on the xm side of the show.

[BIV]

I......I just can't. Not yet anyway. I know I'm an island and likely a dick as well, but I'll get back to this thread when the sting of disappointment goes away.

It's better to burn out then lose your dignity....maybe....I don't know.

"Never apologize, it doesn't do any good and just tells people you admit you are guilty"
"Our biggest regret is we didn't speak our mind when we had the chance"

These are paraphrased, please don't take them as true quotes.

I'll go away for a while, I guess.

Love ya boys, good luck.

:clap: :clap: :clap:

I'm sure the last thing the boys wanted to do was read an apology. But I'm also sure that they didn't think that the possibility of having to apologize was going to happen first from the pressure of the bosses at the "safe" gig.

Nonetheless, Op and Ant, we love you guys. I think everything is going to work out on this one. But if this thing ends up taking a turn for the worst I know there's a couple of XM subs that I'm going to have to get rid of.

[Xartopekti]

Hey OPIE.........Good Luck Bro!!!!

Luv ya,luv the show.

[Jimmy's Junk]

Ant, I'm behind you 100% (No homo). I thought the way you guys handled the show on Friday was great. Fuck those assholes that don't get it. Please promise us one thing. When this thing blows over, and it will, could you please turn us loose on Mancunt and O'Reilley. Please!! Those two are trying to run a two man lynch mob against you guys.

[Xartopekti]

Hey OPIE ...Good Luck Bro!!!

Luv you....luv the show.

[EvilHomerJ666]

Boy's,

Love you, love the show.

[Xartopekti]

Man I wish you guys were right in here..but lets face it. This thing is not going to blow over. All the shit will hit the fan and being a pay service won't help them at all. Ever since this conservative stranglehold on this country got started. Things have gone from bad to worse. Welcome brothers and sisters to the modern day facist regeme. All you bush voters reap your benifits now.

This has nothing to do with politics, sir.

Move along.

Did Sharpton become a Conservative overnight and I missed it?

While Conservatives have certainly caused some Freedom of Speech/Expression issues, there are no Conservative fingerprints on the O&A/Imus/J.V. and Elvis. Conservatives have WAY more to lose with the destruction of Talk Radio.

Actually Conservatives have their finger prints all over this. Hell it broke on Breit & Drudge. Along with Liberals. Most people on both sides unfortunetly don't get it. There will be only a select few on each side who actually understand the situation.

[dodisman]

WBL...you are brilliant. No other word for it. When Ron sees you as the Willie Mays of Radio I think that about sums it up...I fully support you and Opie and Jimmy and your staff and all the comedians...This is one amazing show and i'm glad to be a speck in its universe...

[wes mantooth]

I support the show and I feel no different about them for apologizing. They won't be doing it again.

This entire situation went down so fast and from a completely different direction than what anyone thought that they really didn't have alot of time to think about it. Who would've thought after Thursday's show that something that was aired on XM would get them into this much hot water? NO ONE!! XM's always been the safe haven and when it no longer becomes that what do you do?

Ant, Opie, and Jimmy. I love the show and I love what you stand for. I'd pay to listen to you guys on Ham radio if that's the only place you could broadcast.

I know that you guys like to call what you do "just telling fart/dick jokes" but it's much more than that. Some people can't see the intelligence, wisdom, and hard work that goes into producing what you guys create. I think they are worse off for it. I'm not and I thank you for that.





Well of course you support - you aren't allowed to criticize on wackbag.

Go back to dot.net faggot.

See, you can criticize on Wackbag if it's deserved.

[DisplacedTexan]

"Actually Conservatives have their finger prints all over this. Hell it broke on Breit & Drudge. Along with Liberals. Most people on both sides unfortunetly don't get it. There will be only a select few on each side who actually understand the situation."

Point taken. What I should have said was that this was not strictlya Conservative issue. Liberals are making as much noise, if not more, over O&A.

[dodisman]

I support the show and I feel no different about them for apologizing. They won't be doing it again.


hmmm...They HAD to apologize are you kidding me...Its easy to talk about stuff like this in the abstract but they got caught up in a shit storm and they had a gun to their heads so they had no choice. It was the right thing to do...They made ONE apology, the media ran with it. These guys have a staff of people they are responsible for so they can't go out in a hail of gunfire. I think they WOULD apologize again if they had to. And I dont recall the boys or Jimmy ever taking issue with IMUS apologizing...it was the apology parade the guy went on...once is enough and is more effective.

[goat999]

Soldiers missing. Suicide bike bombers. Some fucking lady mutilates her childs genitals. Why are we even talking about this? What happened to the First Amendment? These are sad times for America.

Learn your history son...This is nothing new in this country...This shit ebbs and flows...this country has a history of struggling with this sort of thing...You are absolutely right in what you say about dealing with more important issues but the media has always done what they are doing. The point is to rally when it crosses the line...and we have.

[dbinsc]

Televised media is simply ridding the competition. They're looking to turn radio into a source of nothing but lame ass music. The only one that can decide the fate of the show are the execs at XM - fuck CBS. We PAY to hear the show - we decide to change the channel on a slow day - don't allow the phoney, misleading TV media convince the top brass at XM to change their product. If there is to be any hope in pulling this incident out of the crapper, it's up to us...the listeners and subscribers. We've gotta be heard at the top...

[madbam]

O & A always win in the end...no matter how bleak it looks they will come out on top. THere are far too many supporters and fans to have this hurt them too badly. I will follow them to whatever medium they are on be it XM, FM, Internet radio, or whatever else is left...I signed on as a fan a long time ago for the LAUGHS and the intelligent conversations( Yes they do have those too). SO WBL, Op, Lil Jimmy and the rest of the staff...godspeed....madbam out

[TELL'UMFRED]

Right on the mark dude.

Guys, your dedicated fans will do all we can

[goat999]

never said it just started. just said its fucking sad

[UsedLadBag]

I have to admit I was sending IF and encouraging them to go on the offensive and if it was the end to go down fighting. I was a little emotional, I hope I didn't come across as an ass. I love those guys like family and couldn't sit back quietly while it looked like a lynching was occurring. I wish I kept a copy of all the IF I sent yesterday, it'd be fun to rip me and my emo state apart for it, but since I don't have it, here's a picture of Hitler instead:

true dat....what about that story about the lady who left 3 babies with her meth addicted ex-husband and the kids were trying to get some kind of food even if it meant eating frozen dinners off the floor...makes me sick to my stomach

[goat999]

tee-hee

[dodisman]

That's what I said so we agree with each other. Why the hostility?

ha...no hostility at all...i misread your post..i thought you were saying in short that you dont expect them to ever apologize again (in the future for any other situation)...my bad on that...ha...no hostility bro

[tellmfredwhowho]

My email to Gary Parsons and I sent a similar email to E-lo


Dear Mr. Parsons,

First off, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to read my e-mail.

I have been a fan of the O&A show for quite some time and in fact, they are the sole reason that I began my sub to XM two yrs ago. I currently have two radios and subs and will cancel if there is any harsh actions put forth from XM. You may not understand their show, nor agree with their form of humor, however there are many people that do (myself included). Your company has to stand up for the talent and not cave into irrelevant activism/corporate America. Subs make XM money and there will be a huge void created if they do go.

Here are my radio ID's (xxxxxxx and xxxxxxx)....please take this email as my notice to XM that I will immediate cancel my subs if ridiculous actions are taken against O&A. Also, I have given radios to 3 family members as presents that have subsequently turned on to O&A and they feel the same way I do.

Please stand up for free speech and expressionism, and stop the insanity.

Thank you,

[bayzbol44]

Good luck, bro!

[distortion9]

Keep your chin up...we're gonna turn this thing around.

100% with you guys.

[Ren5150]

This is all pathetic bullshit on the part of the press to drum up a story where there is none. That CUNT on CW 11 in NYC that is part of some Woman's rights group is just another example of an attention hungry whore.

Never mind that fact that this wasn't even O & A saying the shit nor was it a planned or scripted bit. Forget all that and think about how bad this censorship garbage has become. It is getting worse far quicker than I ever thought. At this point you cant say anything that anyone will find offensive.

WBL of course we are behind you and the show. F anyone who says otherwise, this is far bigger than this one show.

[BroGonzo]

Anthony, you just about made me sick to my stomach when you said "Your mom's box" Friday. I just wanted to go home and sleep for two years.
