This. I'm kind of whatever on the guy but he at least seems like he enjoys what he's doing. He's like you're uncle at Christmas who might be right or might be wrong, but he just seems like a guy who's doing his job cause he likes to talk sports.
Cook and Fillipponi on the other hand......
An indication of his popularity in the Pittsburgh market: he won the City Paper's 2012 Readers Poll as "Pittsburgh's Favorite Radio Personality of the Year" even though he wasn't on the air as he was honoring a non-compete after his release from WDVE after 24 years

From what I found online, he was fired/released in December 2011. Is there really such a thing as an 18 month no compete?
Also I never heard of a place that keeps their no compete clause intact after they fire you. If you are released from your job whether by firing, layoff, or whatever, they are technically voiding any written agreement that you have with the company.

He was his bitter old self yesterday. Vinnie asked if he was gonna support some local program that was having a fundraiser, and Cook said something along the lines of him having a previous engagement. When Vinnie asked, Cook told him "I don't think that's any of your business."
You're on a radio show. Your job is to talk, especially if there's a co-host, not to be a miserable, bottled-up jerk.

Ron Cook and Bob Smizik should have an hour of old man chat everyday. I feel so bad for Vinnie anymore. Ron being so evil towards him has actually made me like Vinnie.
