It's one thing to have an opinion but you are somewhat uninformed. Rick was only at one prior station in NYC and his low ratings had as much to do with the circumstances as anything else. As for CBS FM being some sacred institution where only "legends" should be, remember that the station didn't begin, with a roster of so-called "radio greats" (taking nothing away from the tallent they had). Many of the legindary jocks often cited here, weren't a part of CBS FM until they were available and Joe McCoy took over. It wouldn't surprise me if most people on this board know most of the pre-1980 tallent. Would you have made the same criticisms of people like Brian Kelly, Jim Harrington or Sean Casey for example (all excellent jocks who have not achieved the stature and notoriety of the legindary jocks)?
