      @SethMcFartlane 4 месяца назад

      It's more accurate to state Anthony flushed the millions. His social media addiction combined with his racism was inevitably going to get him fired. They all knew it. He refused to stop and the inevitable happened. The _only_ reason they even skated for that long on Sirius was because they were under the radar. No one else was going to hire them in the current climate, so even if Opie tried to stop them firing Ant (instead of encouraging them) it wouldn't have worked.

      @@SethMcFartlane If Opie and Anthony were on Compound together I would assume the show would be much larger than its current iteration. Anthony broke company policy and was terminated. I won’t argue that or what happened. I think that they could have spun off another show like compound and had more success. My opinion only.

      about the millions - i agree, well said - however i take it from a head Nurse who made 25K a month, she said if she could retire tomorrow she would, i said she makes in 4 weeks what i make in 2 years at my job, ITS not always the money, i could see Opie turning down an official Due Dilligence at new XM or whatever they would sign, had Ant been on for another run, Opie - would never do it for 10 million, 50 mil..Opie doesnt make good decisions (rem how he got fired - we all seem to skip over Opies firing - Ant gets the Twitter Times SQ black woman hounding but Opie taped ROland..seems each shock jock weakness led to their downfall, one racism, one scatology humor..take care Not marshall

This is from years ago, so, thankfully, we know Greg has just gotten more bitter and less funny. He's not even interesting, when he definitely should be with the career he's had.

      Opie brings up Anthony a heck of a lot more than Anthony does. There's a huge difference. Anthony can talk about anything and anyone, and make it funny. Opie hasn't got a funny bone in his body. He's a bore, who needs to talk about Anthony to gain a smidgen of attention. There's a reason why every comedian, who's ever worked with Opie, can't stand him, and no longer talk to him. And it's nothing to do with Anthony.
