Did anyone catch the guy that said something about only two more months. He said " we only got two more months"... What was that about?

Okay, I'll just assume you don't know, and not just playing a gag:

Their contracts with Infinity are up in about two months, and we are all wondering if they'll renew with Infinity/WNEW or jump ship to somebody who won't treat them like garbage.

I've got a feeling that if WNEW doesn't bend over backwards for the boys, they aren't gonna resign. They've consistently been high in the ratings, and basically put WNEW back on the map. The guys can joke, make it funny, but it sounds that if things don't significantly change, theyr'e outta there.

The bad part about them leaving is that they cannot be in the new york market for sometime.
I dunno if its years or months.

Xcom. That's only true if they leave before their contract is up. Once it runs out they can do anything they want. Maybe even walk across the street

But that's just it: WNEW has been treating them like an afterthought all this time... why would they suddenly have an about-face at the last possible second?
Ratings? O&A are number 1, and have been for a long time-- still get no respect.
Fear the boys will go to the competition? I think it's safe to say the suits at WNEW already feel Don & Mike would make better "yesmen" who won't buck the system, so they may finally say, "Thanks for the ratings, but we no longer think the O&A show fits in with the direction we want to take NEW." And let's be honest, Mel Karmazin will still take home a nice Infinity paycheck whether the boys work for him or not.

Fuck Infinity. All they do is hire Kiss-asses, and egomaniacs.
If O&A do leave, (more than likely they will), I'll be glad to hear them go full force somewhere else. O&A are an island.

Considering that only 3 major radio networks exist were can they go? I am shure they don't want to be stuck in a shack someplace.
