Yesterday was Pollin's last day on air at ESPN980, which is owned by Dan Snyder. This caught most by surprise and is just another reason Snyder is a POS. Pollin has been with the former WTEM since it's inception in 1992 after cutting his teeth at WFAN in NYC. I have been a loyal listener from day one.
Pollin hosted the evening drive slot with Steve Czaban since the early 2000's (I can't recall the first year), but in Snyder's infinite wisdom they moved Pollin out and Cooley and Al Galdi in in 2013. The new show sucked. Not as bad as the 'Man Cave' crap they tried to air in the morning in place of Mike & Mike, but it still sucked. Someone came to their senses and restored order.
Yet, here we are just a few months later and Pollin's contract is not going to be renewed. It absolutely has something to do with the criticism Pollin heaps on Snyder and the Skins.
Wonder what crap they will put in the afternoon drive now. At least there is another option with 106.7. Here's to another quarter century of futility to the Skins and Snyder.
