"Left" would imply that he resigned or quit of his own volition, which he did not. By all appearances, he was fired. Take a look at the website, all references to him have already been wiped clean.

Listening to Burns is just as painful. I can't believe he lasted as long as he`did on the air with his awful elocution and public speaking abiity. The guy stammers anf trips over his words constantly, and can't string more than 2 sentences together without uttering a Beavis and Butthead-like "uhhhh" or "ummm." And what's the deal with all the "goes out there"s? Nealy every anecdote he tells begins with "So he goes out there and _______" .... and that's just one of the many verbal crutch phrases he relies upon. Yet he has the nerve to make fun of Wade Phillips' overuse of "well...." during his interviews?? A bit hypocritical, if you ask me.

All that wouldn't be so bad if he had something of substance to talk about, but half the time he comes across as someone practicing for Open Mic Night at the Ha Ha Hole on Pico with all the tiresome and unfunny one-liners, and never-ending potshots he takes at Andy's fuddy-duddiness. Throw into the mix all of the on-the-air name dropping and boasting about his jet set lifestyle, and you're left with someone who got exactly what he deserved -- the axe from Clear Channel.

Off-base 100%, huh? So you're telling me he doesn't "uhhh" and "ummm" and stammer his way through even the simplest of statements? That he doesn't utter about 20 "goes out there"s every hour, along with 30 "my friend"s and 25 "when it comes down to it"s? Even Mike Taylor called out Burns' extreme use of these verbal crutches when the 2 were in the midst of a Twitter war recently. That he doesn't name drop and cop an arrogant attitude as he gloats about his partying and jet set lifestyle? That he doesn't continuously talk over and harass Andy over his sweater vest and vanilla-ness to the point that it becomes intolerable?

Facts are facts....if you want to argue that you still find him entertaining in spite of the foregoing, that's fine. But don't tell me that the guy is articulate, or that he has any sense of humility. If I were him, I would maximize this time off and take some public speaking lessons or maybe even some speech therapy, and re-invent himself by becoming more of a "man of the people" instead of the ivory tower image he's created.

Peter Burns is not Paul Harvey, or Walter Winchell or Edward R. Murrow but he is a good radio guy, not to everyone's liking but who is? I can speak to the fact that he does have a sense of humility and is very grateful for what he has been able to do and very thankful to those who have helped him along the way. I know that he will land on his feet and do well.

he was entertaining to me and a necessary element in a show with everett. he didn't ride the cowboys jock...of course, i'm gonna like that. seems like he got along great with bruce. i don't know what went wrong...

maybe he fucked the boss's wife. who knows?

I would love to hear him in the afternoon, if not with Mike Taylor, I would love to hear him in place of the Sports Grind.

Sports talk host Burns gets Clear Channel boot

By
Jeanne Jakle
on Jan 14, 10 03:06 PM | Permalink | Comments (9)

The cry from fans has been resounding and heartfelt: What in the world happened to Peter Burns?

Well, it appears the popular sports talk host is the latest S.A. radio personality to get, well, burned.

Burns confirmed that he was let go at KTKR, Ticket 760, Tuesday and booted off his morning drive show with Andy Everett. Guest hosts have filled his spot the past two mornings.

Why? As I understand it, Burns not only was expected to sing and dance but juggle, too.

Let me explain: Burns essentially was handling three jobs at Clear Channel. He was a successful account executive who brought in lots of advertisers to the radio group.

That's how he made his actual living, off sales commissions.

About a year and a half ago, Burns also helped launch a lively sports show - "Morning Drive with Andy Everett and Peter Burns" from 7 to 9 a.m. weekdays on KTKR -- which drew a healthy and loyal audience.

He wasn't paid a host salary to do it; he did the show basically out of his passion for sports talk.

His third duty? To complete a lot of sales paper work. It was the latter that suffered some, Burns said, as he strove to excel at the two jobs he thought were the most crucial.

Yet, what was he fired for? In Burns' words: "My failure to be efficient at the clerical part of the job."

What?! Here's a guy who was giving his all to a show on The Ticket for free; he even traveled across country to sports events on his own dime. He also was a lucrative sales earner.

And how does the radio group repay him? By showing him the door.

Argh! What has local radio come to?

I tried phoning Ticket 760 program director Peter Bolger for an explanation, but still haven't heard back.

Meantime, Burns is anxious to get back into the broadcasting saddle. He holds no ill will toward his old employers and would love to return to Andy's side on Ticket 760. "The last five years at Clear Channel have been an unbelievable ride and I wouldn't trade them for the world," he said.

Now, however, he must look to his future. One possibility might be to take over the soon-to-be-vacated Paul Alexander slot on ESPN 1250 "The Zone."

Another might be to work harder to break into TV, a goal the nice-looking Burns has been eyeing for a while.

Whatever the case, one thing's certain. Burns has amassed an impressive amount of supporters in his relatively short time as air personality. Both Twitter and Facebook sites are full of folks wanting answers.

Ya man, this is bullshit. I've been a big supporter of Burns. The guys brings energy to the show, and isn't boring. BONUS, he handles ST a lot too.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I still think Peter and Paul ''Greco'' would be a great showcase together. Love it when they go at it. Last week they got all heated over the hall of fame, very entertaining. Greco handled his shit when he hosted the show twice, no Oliver has been filling in...BORING

Bring Peter back, and start the new show Peter and Paul your San Antonio Choir Boys.

I guess I'm the only one that likes the Grind. They have me laughing, plus they talk about sports and only sports! Unlike The Zone's Bringing It. I love women, and I'm sure "Smoking Hot Next Door Neighbor" is really hot, but when she comes on the show, she really doesn't bring anything to the show. She doesn't know sports, so it's a waste of time!

Why couldn't Mike Taylor and Jim Bob bo Shankles been fired ? Hate that show. When 1250 is in commercial, I switch over to 760 and listen to those goofy Dallas accents and "puro" this and that and then quickly switch to CD when I can't stand it anymore. I'm like a crack addict for Sports Talk and I never learn my lesson.

Good Luck Peter. Maybe Conan O'Brien will co-host with Andy.

Hey I heard Paul Greco on Thursday filling in with Andy and I thought he did a great job. Not sure why the Ticket hasn't offered him anything yet. Would he be a good replacement for Burns, maybe/maybe not, but the guy has inside scoops with the Spurs, Cowboys, and all baseball. The guy has an edge to him, he's funny, and he's a fans-fan first -- occuring to what he said on Thursday. He'd be a great voice for the fan.

I can't stand Oliver. That guy bores the hell out of me and should just stick to the paper.

Hopefully The Ticket pulls their heads out of the asses and brings back Peter and gives Greco a shot. That would keep me on the channel. Right now I switch over to 1250 often, but they're not doin that great either in my opinion.

gatoloco
01-22-2010, 12:39 PM
Greco is not bad at all, and he seems to know what he's talking about, but that would be 2 straight guys and that is a recipe for BORING.

Peter allowed for a mix of both.

the other extreme is chris duel talking about rio rio cantina and oohing and ahhing at the lady of the day on their show for 20 minutes...which gets annoying as well...we can't see the bitch over the radio's in our car, chris.



also wasn't too fond of the way Greco and the other guy seemed to talk down to a caller yesterday morning...

the guy was talking about our interior defense being weak and mentioned he was at the Jazz game and saw as much...

then Greco came back with "Well, from the front row, this is how i saw it..."

that's weak.



And mike and mike is pissing me off with their teasers.

i hate hearing him mention something and then saying, 'and we'll talk about it right after the break"...no...fuck you....talk about it now or shut the fuck up about it til after the break!

these are my grievances...:wakeup

..that would be 2 straight guys and that is a recipe for BORING.

Are you kidding me, his line about the Lip Juice and Andy taking it to get millions was great made me spit up on the computer.

Also loved the way he broke down the Jets and the comparision between them and the Ravens.

I agree though the "Front Row" comment was a little much. But if I remember right he thanked every caller that called, that's the home town feel i like.

I just hope the Ticket keeps this coming because like you said, "Greco is not bad at all, and he seems to know what he's talking about." Thats exactly what we need on the radio here.

Bring Burns back!!!

To bad that Peter is gone. I think he got fed up with the hero worship of Tiger by Andy. I would have sacked Andy because he sucks when he starts talking golf BORING. I turn the channel to 1250 or just turn it off. Andy cannot carry the show by himself. Andy needs to go with Tiger to the sex clinic with Tiger because he is in love with Tiger. Now that SAS is on Ticket, I don't listen to 760 till Dan comes on at 9AM. SAS just sucks. I thought Craig S. was good.

If ESPN the ZOne would mix in some real sports every once in awhile I wouldn't have to tune into clown talk 760.

Yeah I get tired of the Rio Rio Cantina refrences and how they almost busted a nut because April Ancira put on a bikini OVER her clothes. She should have put it on over her face.


Yeah, I agree about Rio Rio Cantina. What've I heard about that tourist trap is it's not all that great. Made for the tourist who doesn't know tamales from enchiladas. Now about Chris and Jason, I can't stand their voices! Chris shouts all the time and Jason bothers me with his, uh..uh..uh!! Come on Jason! Think of what you want to say, and spit it out!!!!! :bang

Totally agree. Now that I've kinda made the switch I'm hearing that as well. I can't figure out for the life of how some of these "guys" are on the the radio.

The worst still, and I've said it before, is the Grind. I feel stupider after attemping to listen to that show. BUt, it's been made apparent to me from an e-mail from the program director at the ticket that 760 is not a priority to him because WOAI makes more money.

So good luck getting quality on that station.

shit, i found myself listening to Joe Pags on 1200 yesterday...had to switch to the zone after he came back from the break still whining about his car being broken into and taking calls about it...

sure enough, the zone was talking about their new zone girl...


i don't really mind the grind...

it was funny a couple weeks ago when one of the guys said the Spurs were dark enough to win.

then he was like, 'nah, i meant, you know, they have that dark side...'

ain't no white man getting away with saying that shit though. :lol

I like Mike Taylor. find his show to be pretty funny and having met the guy a few times he seems pretty cool in person. Im also a cowboys fan so his talk doesnt bother me. I could see how it would bother someone who doesnt like the cowboys

Either way Andy in the morning is horrible. Its not that he doesnt know anything - his voice is beyond boring. its just not a good radio voice and its been annoying for years

and having met the guy a few times he seems pretty cool in person.Your bias you like the guy he could fart for 3 hours and you would still tune in. I like Chris Duel in Person he is funny and was cool with me also,but I have no problem telling him when his show sucks.

Another example is Dusty Garza,DizzG,Pooh,TPark,and Sequspur. All cool guys in person then you talk to them online and they become douche bags.

Why couldn't Mike Taylor and Jim Bob bo Shankles been fired ? Hate that show. When 1250 is in commercial, I switch over to 760 and listen to those goofy Dallas accents and "puro" this and that and then quickly switch to CD when I can't stand it anymore. I'm like a crack addict for Sports Talk and I never learn my lesson.

Funny that I have a Dallas accent when I've spent my entire life within a 90-minute drive of San Antonio.

Don't worry about being addicted to sports talk... we'll be the Ike to your Tina.

How come 760 AM ignores ST?

I've asked the same thing several times and never got an answer. As far as Taylor goes, I've also met him in person, twice...once he was cool, they other, as he say's D-Bag. But aren't we all!!!

Good stuff in the afternoon Mike...I like it, but at times you ride it over the edge. Keep stayin real

That tells you why they are here to collect a paycheck these dudes don't give a rats ass about you taco eating Spur fans.


If these guys would have came into town with some humble beginnings and not like they was the shit like GoGatos did when he first started posting here they might have had a chance.

Andy Everett is ok to listen to. Maybe b/c he is talking about "sports" and not the latest zone girl addition. Mike and Jim Bob, man... to me they are funny! But, they also talk about sports. Yesterday, they talked about Spurs and possible trade scenarios. I like the Grind! They are also funny and stick strictly to ST. The shouting of Chris Duel and the constant uh...uh...uh... of Jason Minnix is like nails on a chalkboard! Oh, when is Jason going to get rid of his cold? :D
