So is Howard gonna comment on O&A? Why doesn't he start a war with them? Please don't tell me Howard is afraid of them.
These guys suck, I didn't care for them on waaf in Boston and after listening to them in this clip I still don't understand the draw. The only time I've found them funny was when one of them was a contestant on Howards show years ago.

howard doesnt' need to start a war with those guys, they may have had ratings in new york but they haven't spread as far as howard yet and they never will

i've listened to some of their stuff on xm and i think it blows, personal opinion only

After reading this post it drove me to write my first post on HSBB. I've been a member since HSBB first allowed registration, but I've never felt the need to post until now. It's pretty much the same post as I wrote here.

I remember O&A from when they were on waaf in Boston, I didn't think they were that funny then and after listening to a clip from todays show, I still don't think they're funny now. I don't get the draw. The only time I found either of them funny was when one of them was in a contest on the Stern show.
More importantly, I heard what they said about Howard and I wonder why doesn't Howard start a war with them? Howard would kill them.

I used to have to listen to them years ago because the guy who gave me a ride to college listend to them. I don't think they're funny. Howard on his worst day is funnier than they are on their best day.
Other than one time I can't remember Howard mentioning them. So what are you talking about?

On another note, I like how O&A kept ragging on Howard because he may have a subscription to XM and listens to them. They obviously listen to Howard, since they made some comments on what he's said recently. What's up with that?

Hell in their whole tribute monologue they admit they're doing his show with the whole Stern imitation.

They sound like they're broadcasting from someone's basement, and they're ALREADY complaining about XM not getting their act together with their fucking WOW stickers.

UGH they are so bargain basement. I listened to 10 minutes out of a 20 minute clip and I think I almost smiled once when they compared Robin's vagina to a wallet.

Can you imagine paying God knows how much to listen to these dopes and have them talk about Howard the whole time?

Any of you wonder how O&A suddenly started hating howard after growing up listening to howard and him being their hero? How they weren't in competing timeslots, at the same compnay and they end up hating him? Some things you can be biased about... but think about some things. You can't bash the bush clones who support him no matter what, then do the same with howard. I love howard too, but NO man is perfect.

It was because Howard cried to his bosses at Infinity whenever O&A mentioned his name. They worked for the same company, but Howard was afraid of them. Even the most loyal Stern fan has to admit that it's hypocritical for him to complain when another jock mentions him, when he spent years of his career doing the same thing.

O&A readily admit that they've listened to Stern. If Howard had any balls, he'd do the same thing.

I think O&A have thier place as much as Howard does. Everyone bitched and complained about the uncensored E! shows, which I am in total agreement on, I would have bought a uncensored DVD in a second but am not renting them for 5 bucks a pop.

O&A will develop a following on XM just as they did on FM, I also dodnt hink people are going to rush out and buy Sirius radios today, seeing as Stern would not start at least until 2006.

O&A always admitted they listened to Howard, and the whole "feud" didnt start until Howard was bitching to Viacom. Look I enjoy Stern as much as O&A, and would listen to them both on a regular basis, I just think Stern is very hypocritical on some of the things he says, as I am sure O&A are as well.

And yet, now matter how badly you all say that O&A suck, nothing gets you guys riled up like an O&A thread, does it?

If they suck and are soooooo insignificant, why are you all spending so much time discussing them? Howard is the biggest thing to happen to talk radio. No one would dispute that. But he's slipping; even the most die hard Stern fans say it. Maybe the move to Sirius (the financially inferior satellite radio company) will give his career a jolt of energy, we'll see. But even Stern fans are getting sick and tired of him.

O&A had a huge following when they were on Infinity. But they were forced out of radio by Infinity for two years. Now they're back and starting again from the ground up. They admit to this themselves. Opie's said on several occasions that they've got a listening audience similar to that of a college radio station. We'll see what happens in the future.

(You Stern zombies really make me laugh, by the way.)

Its funny how anyone who defends stern or says "up O&A's ass" are called sheep or zombies by the diehard O&A fans. The same thing can be said about you tools...don't hate howard just because O&A have a beef with him. I don't care for O&A, I just don't think they are funny. Does that make me a sheep? Also, why do you O&A tools think that people don't like O&A becuase howard says not to like them...please remember howard doesn't talk about them period, so how can he call on the "zombies" or "sheep" to boycott them?

And as far as O&A bringing up posts on a stern board...I've seen some O&A boards, which mostly suck by the way. The one I did lurk at, almost 80% of the posts were about Stern...what he did on the show that day, how much he sucked, how he always claimed to invent something, etc. Without stern, there would have only been a handful of posts. Notice this board does just fine on its own merrit.

FINALLY, this is a legitimate question and I don't know the answer...why does O&A always say Howard told infinity to do this and told Mel to do that? Was there an actual conversation where stern went to mel and said do X,Y, & Z? Or is that just what people assumed happened?

No, it's a fact. All of a sudden, one day while they were at WNEW, they started using the Kid Rock clip Radio Edit whenever they wanted to mention Howard. A few days later, they had to even stop that, and literally could not talk about him at all. They have said straight out that their bosses told them not to mention Howard in any way, shape or form. Based on the timiing and the surrounding events, it's very obvious the order came from Howard crying to Mel.

I tried with an open mind to give these guys a chance. Of the 2 clips I have heard. THEY SUCK ASS!!! The opposite of funny. These fucking clones are ripping off Howie bigtime. They are trying to do what howard did when he attacked his competition. They are so unorignal its sad. Now I keep hearing how funny Jim Norton is on that sho but I have yet to hear him. Norton is a kool guy and funny as hell. Maybe he should be saying more cause I didnt get one laugh from these tools. I would think Howie would be an easy target. These guys have nothing. All they can say is howard is ritch. Wow what an inuslt. Howard has a got girlfreind. Oh please stop. I think they have to wait for Howard to attack someon so they can copy that and do to Howard. Maybe we should post some old shows so they can download them and copy them directly. :hw:

It may be true that Howard complained about O&A. But, that doesnt make them funny in any way.

Remember when Howard talked about how he started to do the whole "hey now" tagline. He stopped cause he realised it was becoming sctick. That's what I think of when O&A do that whole Virus spreading thing. Whip em out wednesday? Give me a fuckin break.

O&A think Howard wont be the orginal on satellite cause they are on first. Who gives a shit, its what Howard's gonna do. O&A aint doing anything, except for saying fuck and shit and tit.

Who the fuck cares who's first on satellite? Do these idiots think they can compete with Stern? That right there shows how stupid they are?

I've never heard these guys before, never been in a market I lived in. Thanks to Pussah, I've downloaded a couple of the clips and have to say...

...I just don't find them funny.

Maybe it's just me, but the first day on XM when they blasted Howard, today when they blasted Howard just didn't strike me as funny. Same with the Everquest and transit station bits. Just not funny.

Quantam Dice was funny once they got the actual Dice off the phone and the guy doing the impressions went full bore. THAT was funny. But the real Dice was actually funnier when he was on the phone.

"Listen to me! I got a hat!"

I still have to listen to the show that got them booted and the final day show. But it's not high on my priority list after listening to this other stuff.

Like I said, maybe it's just me. But they just aren't funny.

Who care what some fake ass named Opie and his pal Anthony think? What I think is that they suck anus... not because they hate howard (but that does help me to dislike them), but because I don't find them funny. I also hate their fans who say that if you're a Howard fan and you don't like O&A that it automatically makes you a Stern Zombie. I'm allowed to hate O&A based on the fact that I think they suck aren't I? And I've given them plenty of chances to be hilarious, but they aren't.

O and A were pretty funny when they were on WNEW. Right now they seem rusty as a previous poster said. If I had to choose, I definitely prefer Howard. But I'll still listen to O/A if I have the time. I liked them better in afternoons, some of the Howard ripping today was amusing (especially when they played his theme music).

Let me start by saying to any O&A fans, I am from Canada and have up till about 3 days ago never heard any of their stuff.

Now that I took the time to try and listen to what you guys call "Classic bits", all I can say is they suck.

Now I have heard what they are saying on XM about Howards jump. They are claiming they are first.....which time wise may be true, however Howard looked at Sat. Radio before and poo pooed it because it was not ready.

He talked about it a contract and a half ago did he not????

In 3 years we shall see if O&A are what they say they are.

I have a feeling you are going to see a huge shift from XM to Serius. As for new sign up contracts I think the the market just peeked for XM.......it's all downhill from here.

Time will tell

Tho I do think Howard faked O&A out by adding XM ads to his daily show, and his web site.

I think the term is "The old bait and switch" ;)

So is Howard gonna comment on O&A? Why doesn't he start a war with them? Please don't tell me Howard is afraid of them.
These guys suck, I didn't care for them on waaf in Boston and after listening to them in this clip I still don't understand the draw. The only time I've found them funny was when one of them was a contestant on Howards show years ago.
O&A pray every day that Howard will start a war with them. He would be doing them a huge favor, yet he would stand nothing to gain from it.

No, it's a fact. All of a sudden, one day while they were at WNEW, they started using the Kid Rock clip Radio Edit whenever they wanted to mention Howard. A few days later, they had to even stop that, and literally could not talk about him at all. They have said straight out that their bosses told them not to mention Howard in any way, shape or form. Based on the timiing and the surrounding events, it's very obvious the order came from Howard crying to Mel.

Sounds like an assumption to me. Is it really all that unreasonable that the execs for the NUMBER 1 jock in radio history came to their own conclusion to shut two clowns up when they were talking shit about the person who built the company? All of you O&A dudes just assumed howard had mel do it (O&A assume that too) when I would imagine Mel could have done it on his own. Sounds like you guys are the sheep now, taking everything those two turds say as gospel truth

I think of Opie and Anthony wanting a war with Howard in the same way that that big-chinned douchebag Mark Cuban needed a war with Donald Trump-it's their best shot at getting any serious attention. It failed for Cuban and hopefully Howard won't even bother wasting breath on them.

Isn't it obvious to all of you yet that Howard doesn't mention these guys because he's scared of them? You think the jocks Howard was killing back when he was funny (like 15 years ago) mentioned Howard? Hell no. Whatever you do, don't give any publicity to the up and coming guys that are better than you. Plus, Howard obviously has the bigger audience (for now), and he has nothing to gain by talking about O&A. Don't worry, that will change...

At least explain WHAT is so scary about them? They're not exactly innovative, they're hardly household names from being on regular radio, so they're certainly not going to do it on satellite radio and they're pretty much derivative of any other wacky radio duo out there.
If you're going to say dumb shit like 'he's scared of them'-at least FUCKING ELABORATE! ! !

10-08-2004, 12:14 AM
Howard has said their names, but he only did it when they were off the air and couldnt fight back, now that they are back he hasnt said a word. if they are not a threat, why only talk about them when they are not around? seems to me if they were not a threat he could talk about them and it would be fine. imus isnt a threat but howard rips on him a lot. what about bubba the love spounge? was he a threat to stern? of course not, but howard dissed him when he was on the air. the COMPANY knew O&A was the better show, thats why they didnt let them out of the contract, O&A wanted out, they said DONT PAY US, FIRE US! But they wouldnt do it, cuz they knew O&A have a funnier show, and would have gone to Clear Channel and kicked howards ass. if they were not gonna make money anywhere else, why give them millions to not work? Howard has been great at beating other jocks, such as Imus, DeBella, Mancow, Mark and Brian ect ect, but he knows O&A are the better show, so he had the company shut them up. Remember a few years ago when that girl flashing on the today show and howard saying it was one of his fans? LOL pretty stupid thing to say when she had a wow sticker on. Norton is the funniest person on the show, but he is prob the funniest person in the country. Even without norton though O&A is the best radio show, howard 2nd

NYPost:
&A UNGAGGED, BUT FOR HOW LONG?

By JOHN MAINELLI

AFTER two years of radio silence, Opie & Anthony have been hired by a broadcaster that will let them say whatever they want — even the infamous f-word.

But the question is: How long will that shock-jock nirvana last in a post-Janet Jackson world?

"O&A" told a fan-packed news conference yesterday that they're joining XM Satellite Radio Oct. 4.

Satellite radio is not regulated by FCC censors — for now.

Bounced from WNEW-FM after their sex-in-St. Pat's stunt, the top-rated twosome will go head-to-head against Howard Stern on a special channel that will cost $2 a month over and above XM's basic $10 monthly fee.

Satellite radio execs expect mobs of young male listeners to see rowdy XM as an alternative to heavily-edited conventional radio. But if it does get popular, some traditional broadcasters will likely start yelling for Congress to subject "sat radio" to the same restictions.

"If you're serious about dealing with the issue of indecency, we think it's something that should be acknowledged by legislators," Dennis Wharton of the politically-powerful National Association of Broadcasters told The Post, saying the NAB "hasn't made any decision" yet on whether to seek regulation of satellite radio. But Inside Radio editor Tom Taylor says "this idea is definitely wafting around Congress."

A spokesperson said the FCC can't do anything unless Congress authorizes it — but added, "If Congress passes legislation saying we regulate it, then we will regulate it."

If they're worried, XM execs aren't showing it.

"We're not concerned at all because XM is the perfect place for content that is more adult-oriented, because people who want to listen to this content have to pay for it," said XM VP Chance Patterson.

"There's what some would call extreme content on HBO — like 'The Sopranos' — that may not be appropriate for everyone," Patterson said.

"But those who watch those shows absolutely love them — and we think people will absolutely love Opie & Anthony nationwide."

You guys may think the WoW promotion and stickers is lame, but try driving around NY without seeing one for more than a minute. And that's 2 years after they were taken off the air. The fact is, it's a great promotion for the show and the station. I've even seen it on several TV shows, including the back of a garbage truck on The Sopranos.
