John DePetro simply called Grace Ross a lesbian and got fired.

Who is DePetro? You just can't cross the line of even givning the appearance of slighting the protected class known as homos.

For the record DePetro called her a 'gravity-challenged' lesbian.

Jason Wolfe is an idiot and a bleepity bleep for what he did to Scotto. The Big Show is talking about it now.

hmm, will have to go back & forth between Howie & EEI.
Howie mentioned the former ACLU director who got busted
for child porn.

Boston Radio Watch:

Somewhere Johnny Most is doing a play-by-play of a Celtics game, smoking a cigarette and calling NBA referees all sorts of politically-incorrect names. Cedric Maxwell is no Johnny Most. Not yet at least. And that's no quack on Max's quack-o-meter.

The long and embarassing 2006/07 Celtics season is getting longer and more embarassing on the court and on the air. According to a poster/reader on the Universal Hub blog, Cedric Maxwell, the team's 12-year radio analyst and a former Celtics star forward, made an inappropriate comment about NBA female referee Violet Palmer after she called a foul on the Green Team during radio broadcast this past Monday night(2/26) :

"During the first quarter of tonight's radio broadcast of the Celtics game against the Houston Rockets,one of the Celtics players managed to fake out the referee to get a call to go his way. The referee who made this call was Violet Palmer, who happens to be a woman. Cedric Maxwell, the analyst / sidekick on the Celtics broadcast team, proclaimed "Get back in the kitchen!" when she made the call. Max's partner, Sean Grande, tried to throw him a lifeline by pointing out that they had both been previously impressed by Palmer's officiating, but Max continued "Get back in the kitchen and fix me some bacon and eggs!" "

According to the Boston Herald, Maxwell's comments didn't sit well with WEEI/WRKO's programming chief Jason Wolfe who indicated that the C's legend will apologize on the air during the Celtics-New York Knicks broadcast on Wednesday night. Maxwell will not be fined or suspended by Entercom. Since, technically, he's a Boston Celtics employee, the team has not made any comment on his on-air remarks.
