Spring Break with John Safran
So Wayne Carey has a god-complex and issues with women. Consider me the most surprised man on planet Earth.
If only there'd been some sign, maybe a series of clues - however subtle - dropped over even several years to warn prospective employers as to his foibles - alas, there were none...
Mind you, it's fairly amusing to see 3AW, Nein, etc distancing themselves from him - guys, you hired him BECAUSE he's a d!ck. You have him on your shows to be a d!ck. Why pretend otherwise now? Contrast to WWE shamefaced-ly removing any mention of Chris Benoit from their tape library and DVD releases - at least they can honestly claim to be surprised. And they're a company that thrives on a good guy-bad guy dynamic.
Quick show of hands - does anyone truly believe this is the last we'll see of Carey on the TV?
Anyone? Anyone?!
Just to clarify - I think there is lots to like about Footy Classified, but there will be a big hole without Carey and I can't think of anyone who could replace him to achieve the same sort of dynamic they are after.
What a pity Kouta's gone to Gladiators.
