Ordway, Merloni & Fauria airs weekdays 2-6 p.m. on WEEI. and features longtime Boston radio personality Glenn Ordway, former Red Sox infielder Lou Merloni and former Patriots tight end Christian Fauria.
The Ordway, Merloni & Fauria podcast is a must-listen for any Patriots fan or sports enthusiast. With a variety of perspectives and guests, the show offers a comprehensive look at the team and their performance. Fauria's personal experience as a former Patriot gives great insight, while Meg brings a unique angle to the discussions. Mr. Merloni adds depth to the conversations, making it a well-rounded show.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the absence of Ordway. Many listeners feel that he never added anything valuable to the discussions and often made stupid comments. Without him, the flow of the show feels much more natural and enjoyable. This has resulted in many fans committing to listening more frequently now that Ordway is no longer part of it.
Overall, this is a great show that features entertaining banter and lively debates between the trio. It's refreshing to hear different opinions and passionate arguments among them. However, one potential downside is that they don't solely focus on the Patriots. For those who are solely interested in football, receiving notifications or excitedly tuning in only to find episodes centered around other sports like Red Sox can be disappointing.
Moving forward from its minor drawback, The Ordway, Merloni & Fauria podcast remains highly recommended for avid sports talk radio fans. The hosts bring professional playing experience to their analysis and are skillfully orchestrated by "The Prince of Darkness" himself. Their in-depth breakdowns of New England sports provide granular details without losing touch with an Everyman perspective. Overall, it is an engaging and informative podcast that should not be missed by sports enthusiasts.
How does Drake Maye rank among NFL quarterbacks
Celtics need to be more active. All in on coaching
The crew gives their three point stances beside Ted Johnson. Rugby, lack of star power
Three Point Stance Hart: Silver lining for the Red Sox is the fact that they care. They compete every night. They are aggressive on the base paths, they try too hard sometimes. I wish they were better. Fitzy: Stef Diggs is recovering well from ACL surgery, and is committed 100% to the Patriots. Pats fans have bigger things to worry about. Ted: The Celtics have to get younger and more athletic so they can compete for a championship in the future. It brings energy and athleticism. Robert Kraft speaks on the last two seasons of the Patriots. He is very disappointed. Ted asks about where on earth Jerod Mayo is. Is there an NDA? Fitzy does not think so. No surprise that RKK said the past two seasons were the worst. Ted would not have taken the job like Mayo did. It was embarrassing. He did not seem ready to be an NFL coach. Even at the beginning. He is no longer a coach... telling. Mike Vrabel. Will the Dolphins have a better season than the Patriots? Are the Patriots closer to being a playoff team or in the basement.
