Turns out that a listener of WEEI, Boston's #1 source for sports talk and intolerance, was, in the shock of the year, a crazy, unemployed person who became obsessed with sports and the radio personalities in order to mask the inadequacies of his personal life. Go figure.
When I listen to WEEI, especially Dennis and Callahan or the Big Show, I always hear very reasoned discussion. I would never hear, for example, radio personalities and callers lauding less talented white athletes as hard working or a "Boston type of guy" while running one of the greatest hitters in the history of baseball, who happened to also be Latino, out of Boston.
Who knew someone involved in such a discourse would be unstable enough to leave death threats for D&C? Not me.
