Raider Nation mentioned on the radio! (1 Viewer)

[NewlyRetired]

While driving to my dads today around 9:40am, our local Boston sports radio station host said the following:

"I don't know if any one follows this twitter called RN_Funhouse............"

At that point I just assumed I heard something wrong, but sure enough, the host then followed up with a new Mike Francesca screw up and I know it had to be our very own @Raider Nation

No wonder he stopped coming here. He becomes famous and forgets us little guys.

[RBM]

 He's made it...

 

[steelerfan1]

i noticed he hasn't been here for a while either and was gonna mention it. thinking the upgrade has lost us some long timers unfortunately.

 

[Swing 51]

Did he get a time out?

 

[John Bender]

He's around here and there - still tweeting non stop.  He's a great twitter follow IMO

Looks like his last post here was late in February.

Big week for RNs_Funhouse.

You have teams on the eleven loyne, and the sixteen loyne. Sixteen loyne, eleven loyne, sixteen loyne, eleven loyne.

I follow him, and he is great. Except for the Francesca stuff... Which is ironic.

 

[Officer Pete Malloy]

Twitter is still going on?

 

[Raider Nation]

I'm still here. Just don't post a lot.

I remember when I got mentioned on air in 1996 after I faxed something to a sports talk radio show.

Would love the details.

Why not?

 

[Raider Nation]

You guys don't know what you're missing with Francesa. Best source of unintentional comedy out there. Listen to the Pittsnogle clip on my TL from yesterday.

 

[Limp Ditka]

Well, well, well. Look who decided to slum it up for a couple of minutes.

 

[Joe Summer]

A co-worker has a recording of the time that he won Jim Rome's "Huge Fax Of The Day" around 1993. It used to be his ringtone.

I like how RN used to catch a lot of grief for his Francesa obsession and has now turned it into a career.

Take it to the bank brohan! 

grief? His Francesa obsession was one of the best things about these boards. Those people who gave him grief are losahs

Still have Cappy's appearance on internet radio about fantasy baseball somewhere.

 

[urbanhack]

Would love the details.

Actually sent it to Lance McCallister and Norm VanLear on WSCR Chicago.   I think it had to do with Big Ten basketball and All Americans or something.

 

[msommer]

15 milliseconds of fame...

Congrats!!

 

[mquinnjr]

Congrats, @Raider Nation!!!

 

[RBM]

He's arou nd here and there - still tweeting non stop.  He's a great twitter follow IMO

I liked his short lived Vito Spatafore twitter feed.

glad to see you back. the pawn stars and late night tv thread has gone to crap without you bud.

 

[NutterButter]

Good work RN.  You've earned your success.

[Dan Lambskin]

I was getting tempted to steal your avatar again

 

[mr. furley]

well, hello to you, too, sailor

 

[jon_mx]

And here I thought he was just too busy trying to keep up with the vast proliferation of porn in the web.

You wrote that like it is bad he is no longer around.

 

[flapgreen]

He's a hero!

One of the best FBGs ever.

We were stars once upon a time. GB you BBT.

 He's made it...

RN's morning dump is more useful than anything you've ever posted in here.

 

[grateful zed]

congrats RN

btw, i made the cover of our local paper last week.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

I was thinking of changing my name to "#1RaiderNationFan" already, this just seals the deal.

A co-worker has a recording of the time that he won Jim Rome's "Huge Fax Of The Day" around 1993. It used to be his ringtone.

A month or two before "Chrissy", Rome (who voiced my ad year one,but not year two) said, "I don't endorse this product" on the air after my commercial ran.  Within 15 minutes, my campaign was doubled for free and Jim apologized to me next day on the show.

 

[Raider Nation]

You wrote that like it is bad he is no longer around.

shady, about that question you asked me earlier. Dummies like this are a big reason.

 

[Raider Nation]

Also, this new board SUCKS.

Ooh we got a computer tough guy. Go do your wife's laundry lowlife

 

[McGarnicle]

Edited 5 minutes ago by RBM

He changed "loser" to "lowlife".

 

[Raider Nation]

If you guys don't know why Twitter is great, I can't really explain it.
