Tracking Chuck Booms

Rumorama alert: Euclid resident and former Fox Sports Radio host Chuck Booms could be headed back to that network for weekend work.

Booms, along with former FSR partner Kevin Kiley, recently filled in on weekends on legendary Philadelphia sports station WIP/610. Aaron Bracy of the Cherry Hill (NJ) Courier-Post in suburban Philly said a couple of weeks ago the team could appear again, and called their first WIP appearance "bad", saying the duo managed to "insult just about every Philadelphia sports icon" on their radio show.

Of course, Booms was most recently heard here in Northeast Ohio, in that tryout rotation for the WTAM/1100 Cleveland midday slot eventually occupied by Bob Frantz. OK, if you can call it a "tryout rotation"...

Hilarious...after Booms was booted off the Kiley & Booms Show that used to air on 1350-AM in Akron, Booms was on record saying that Kiley had knifed him in the back.

In truth, Booms is such a complete mindless moron, he got himself sacked...and good riddance. Now he's RE-teaming with the guy he publicly "called out?"

Only Chuck Booms. Yes, in Chuckie's mind, the world is "all Chuck, all the time, and nothing else matters." He talks over people, interrupts co-hosts...oh man, I could go on forever. In fact, let Trivisonno fill your ears on some Boom-dish. He hates the guy and his infantile, inaccurate on-air "reporting."

Just let me know when he's back on the air so I can turn the radio off.
