The Fan's 'Hardy Rules'
Follow The Fan: Facebook | Twitter
There is no station more interactive with their listeners than The Fan.
Throughout the past week, our Fan-fans have made it clear they're tired of hearing about Greg Hardy's incident with his ex-girlfriend. I think it's safe to say that between all the shows in our line-up, we've addressed and exhausted every angle of Greg Hardy's legal case.
Because of this, we've agreed to implement the "#HardyRules" starting at 5:30am on Thursday, November 12. Every show has agreed to the following:
1) There can no longer be ANY mention of Greg Hardy's legal issues off the field. This includes radio topics, interviews and even the smallest comment or joke. This also includes tweets, retweets, Facebook posts or comments via social media.
2) Our Cowboy insiders (Mike Fisher and Mickey Spagnola) can discuss the topic on their own, but there can be no reaction or questions that directly address Hardy off the field.
3) We are not allowed to play audio clips connected to Hardy's issues off the field.
The loser will have to participate in a Fan marathon where they have to work multiple shows in the same day, hopefully avoiding malnourishment and exhaustion. I will even spin the K&C "Wheel of Misfortune" if I lose the contest.
Any suggestion or thought that the #HardyRules were created or mandated by station management is ridiculous. Just look at my comments the past week on the subject for proof of that.
We have heard what our listeners had to say and the overwhelming majority don't want to hear about this subject in the immediate future. Because of that, this contest has been created and someone will have to be tortured.
As a fan-fan, if you hear or see the violation take please, IMMEDIATELY notify the rest of us so the guilty party is forced to pay their price.
Let the games begin.
