The Bad Stuff On Your Resume
Sid Rosenberg, who talks about sports on Don Imus' morning radio program and MSNBC-TV show, and who also hosts a sports talk show on New York's WFAN radio, lost another gig because he referred unflatteringly to women Olympians. He did this in a give-and-take with Imus. Writes Phil Mushnick in the New York Post: "WFAN's Sid Rosenberg wants it both ways. He wants to serve as Don Imus' high-profile low-life while advancing a career as a credible sportscaster." By Ed Moltzen · 24 August 2004
Comments
It is amazing that the media criticizes Sid Rosenberg and puts him down and makes derogatory comments about his approach on Imus, but repeats everything he says and does since that's what gets people's attention. Sid is a great guy, who has tremendous ability when it comes to sports knowledge. Any program or station that does not recognize this is missing out. Posted by: AS at September 30, 2004 12:34 AMSid Rosenberg is a low life degenerate gambler who is a racist chauvinist. Posted by: Ken Spatta at January 27, 2005 12:17 PMWhen "Ipus " gets tired of Sidiot or he self destructs perhaps the media will realize how tasteless sportshock jocks are and won't hire this breed anymore. Posted by: LEE HAMMER at March 2, 2005 12:53 PMRosenberg rules! Posted by: Johnson at March 3, 2005 07:24 PMWhat has happened to Sid, Please? Posted by: John W. Davis at March 4, 2005 12:18 PMWhat has happened to Sid, Please? Posted by: John W. Davis at March 4, 2005 12:18 PMGood !!! He deserved it. Not just for his woman olympian comments but also for his racist comments about venus and serena williams and his stupid remarks last week on wfan (I had to turn the dial or else I would have ran off the road) about Black Male athletes and johnny cochran. If any people should understand racism jewish people sure should. Posted by: Mike at March 4, 2005 12:56 PMRosenberg is a ignorant racist. WFAN should never let him back on the air. He's had more than enough chances to make an asso f himself and he's taken advantage of every one of them. Posted by: Derrick at March 4, 2005 02:08 PMSid is basically the only funny thing on IMUS anymore and as far as sports talk goes would you rather have a fat arogant know it all like francesa or someone who actually listens to fans thoughts and has a sense of humor and if you dont like him DONT LISTEN Posted by: john at March 4, 2005 05:39 PMI love the Imus show and listen to it every day but without Sid its not the same. I thought he was the funniest one on the show. I miss him and hope he comes back. Posted by: Beth at March 4, 2005 10:55 PMI never noticed how wild Sid was b/c I only listen to the posts from the web site. Reading some of his "material" WFAN does not need to continue giving him a forum. Posted by: jim j at March 6, 2005 04:51 PMSid needs to go for good this time. He is nothing but an Imus buttkisser and big-mouth, racist, jerk. He is a well known cokehead. Posted by: mo at March 7, 2005 07:44 PMSid is humorous. You people who him make me laugh.Come on Sidney! Posted by: Bill at March 10, 2005 07:47 AMSid is prejudice.. the day he blantantly said hakeem olajuwon is a terrorist, he showed his prejudiced side Posted by: Max at March 16, 2005 02:08 PMWhat did Sid do? I thought he was sick or something, and that was why he was gone. Can someone please tell me why he got suspended (or fired)? BTW, I happen to like him a lot. Especially when he said that Philly fans are ignorant jerks and are the worst fans in sports. I can relate to him on that because I've been to Philly for Giants games too. Anyway, what did he do? Posted by: amoretto at March 21, 2005 02:04 PMBring Sid back to Imus,he's about the only one on all of TV that makes me laugh.I guess Sid is in a vunerable position, so he is punishable. Lighten up! Why don't you go after that Castro Kissing Jesse Jackson or Al (I had a lie) Sharpton. Posted by: Richard Marcel at March 23, 2005 04:34 PMPEOPLE, LIGHTEN UP! Sid is just putting on a show when on Imus, HELLO! The things he says are not his personal views, he is a PERFORMER! DUH! The show is definitely not the same without Sid--rather dull actually. I wish him well in his recovery and hope he is back with the show soon. Imus definitely needs him! Posted by: Joan at March 29, 2005 06:18 PMJeez..Imus bring Sid BACK asap...the show's fallen off. Sid's funny as hell. He said Hakeem Olajawon's a terrorist? haha - that's funny!..come one ppl, we all know it's not true. seriously lighten up ppl...sid's not racist or chauvinist...it's a show for you ppl and to get a rise out of everyone. RELAX Posted by: karen at March 31, 2005 10:28 AMI heard it was confirmed that Sid was in rehab, but not whether it was for gambling or substance abuse...regardless...we love you Sid! Posted by: Jim at April 1, 2005 05:46 PMSid got cornered into a rehab vacation. He was missing on air appearances, and apparently hit the abuse Trifecta of booze, gambling and cocaine. During Imus this morning, he spoke of a near-miss contemplating suicide during one of his lows. He looks like he's dropped a little weight, and he appeared to take the ribbing in good humor. Posted by: Joe at April 8, 2005 09:39 AMSid is the best thing that ever happend to raido! He is going through a very difficult time right now and we need to do everything we can to support him. Sid we LOVE YOU! Posted by: Eddie at April 12, 2005 10:52 PMI truly miss Sid. He was a major part of the Imus show. Fatso is a poor replacement for Sid. The powers that be; bring Sid back!!! Posted by: Dan at May 26, 2005 06:58 PMSid will be brought back. Look at all of the publicity he has generated for Imus. Imus has a soft spot in his heart for Sid. The IMan can relate to Sid's addictions. Don Imus generates more revenue for the FAN than all of it's shows combined. He can do just about anything he wants...and he wants Sid back. Posted by: Omni at June 14, 2005 12:57 PMI was wondering where Sid was. Is this permanent? Or do you think Imus will bring him back? Is he still on WFAN in the PM? Posted by: Monk-E-Boy at June 15, 2005 09:22 AMI think Imus will bring Sid back. Sid is like herpes. He may disappear, but he never really goes away. Posted by: Jack at June 15, 2005 10:18 PMBring back Sid. The show is boring! Bernie and Sid make the show with their banter. Posted by: Dave Dorame at August 5, 2005 05:36 PMSee ya later Sid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Posted by: johnny cigar at September 13, 2005 11:48 AMThose of you who think Sid is a racist have no idea who he is. It is clear to me that Sid knows his sports and in my opinion was the fall guy when it did not pan out as some wanted. Posted by: AS at September 15, 2005 11:49 AM |
