I went to school with Chris and was in the majority of his classes and worked on the same projects. App state radio and broadcasting major. It's crazy that he's now the wfnz afternoon anchor just 4 years later.

I think he would prefer North Carolina over any other markets. He was a big Bobcats and Panthers fan just like I was, as well as college basketball.

I'm telling y'all this is fake. It draws attention to themselves, their stations, their brands, and their twitter accounts. Radio is fake. It's an act. What kinda grown men get in sissy slap fights over the internet? Both of these clowns probably wouldn't say sh*t to each other if they walked past one another. 

 

Now, with that being said I truly believe Mark James is a bad person. Calling the guy a "tool" is an understatement. Any "man" who admits that he would like to work for TMZ/paparazzi can't be taken seriously or trusted. 

 

WFNZ is garbage.

We were talking about why Kroeger would ever leave the Charlotte market - I said money. 

 

But you're right....whoever offered Marc more money should be fired or have to pay it themselves. 

 

I never heard of Chris Kroeger until he got the job at WFNZ. 

 

And believe it or not, Mark James got a promotion when he headed to ATL. Bigger market, bigger opportunity for his brand, and probably more $$$. I dislike the guy but his angle is pretty simple - irritate and piss off the listeners so they load the lines. Negative attention is still attention. He fit in well at WFNZ because WFNZ really doesn't have any credibility and it's pretty obvious they are a caller-heavy station that tries to piss off listeners or stimulate them with negativity. If you are a UNC fan I don't know why you would listen to WFNZ.

I know both parties involved personally and I can assure you with 100% certainty it is not. 

 

 

Then I feel bad for them both as adult males. And I wouldn't be bragging about knowing Mark, either. Kroeger should have known better than to take the bait and simply taken the high road. Absolutely no need to step down to Mark James level. Not a good look. Block the guy and be done with it. 

 

Also, and I admit I've peeked over at their little hissy fits on twitter, but what do you think either one of the two would say to each other or do if they happened to run into each other somewhere outside of the work environment? 

 

OH HEY MAN HOWS IT GOING? 

GREAT THANKS! 

ALRIGHT MAN I'LL SEE YA LATER HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND

THANKS YOU TOO BRO

 

lol!

I have a feeling their conversation would be more like this. Fell free to guess who is who:

 

 

HEY KROEGER IM THE BEST IM THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have nothing to say to you Marc.

DO YOU HAVE ANY KIDS IF SO I'LL BET THEIR COLLEGE TUITION ON SOME SQUARE BET!!!!!!!!

I'm not giving you any money.

CAM NEWTON COULDN"T PLAY FOR DA U!!!!!!

Yes he could that's ridiculous.

I GET MORE ACTION FROM THE LADIES THAN YOU!!!!!!!!!

You don't get any action Mark.

I GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE LIKE 8 TIMES AND I SELECTIVELY AM A FAN OF ALL THEIR BEST SPORTS!!!!!!

Okay....

 

This would continue until finally Kroeger walked away.

Local sports radio is pretty negative as a whole no matter where you are. There is a reason why WFNZ gets its most listeners on Mondays after a Panthers loss.
