Dakich

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

An email sent to employees Thursday by operations manager David Wood read: "Today was Dan Dakich's last day with Radio One. We wish him well in their future endeavors."

That’s a shame. 
 

Anyway

Who?

[Brass Cannon]

As a former coworker used to say. “Sucks to suck”

[TheWatShot]

Can't wait to hear all the whining and fake outrage from people who don't even like him.

Hopefully they’re changing the whole station format. I dread nothing more than being in a social situation and getting stuck next to local-sports-talk-radio-listener guy.   
 

I actually didn’t/don’t mind dakich as a color analyst most of the time though.

I miss him calling games. He was really good, or at least better than most these days. His radio show even used to be decent, but it got REALLY goofy the last few years.

I hear that Dane Fife is looking for someone to hang out with.

Yea, he knows his stuff and wasn’t afraid to give good insight as a color guy. I never got his schtick nor listened to him outside of calling games.

• DocWayne knows well that it is fine to criticize the post, but not the poster  :)
• Others know that we don't 'do political' here because it seldom ends well and isn't the purpose of the board.

Dakich is a fire accelerant for both of those trip wires.

Please refrain from going there, or going there.

Thanks all.

The Scottsburg stuff was overblown with he and the IndyStar. Although, ironically, the coach he stood up for is the exact opposite of DD as far as who they vote for in elections lol ... super funny to me. 

I don't care for DD. Couldn't stand the things he would say about Romeo or Blackmon. 

I thought it was strange that yesterday broke the camel's back? Sort of weird to me. No issue with him being kicked off though.

I've only ever been blocked by two people on Twitter. Dakich and Crean. So I did a little dance yesterday when I read the news. I'm sure he'll be fine working for Clay Travis.

I still remember him saying about De'ron Davis that he was trying to 'sell a limp' and that no one cares about it.  It then turned out that he had a achilles tendon injury that made him miss the rest of the season.

Yeah, the ones up don't seem out of line to me.  There are tons of reasons not to like Dakich that have zero to do with politics.
