It's pretty hard to take Romano's side. His arguments are weak.. And he throws a lot of innuendo around.
He does divulge a fair amount of "insider" knowledge in his article..but a lot of it sounds like sour grapes.
Just admitting that he has never had a contract over his 18 years at MD, and also admitting that he had his doubts about The Blech's integrity & business practices, is pure Romano banality at it's finest. I'm sure that lack of any sort of severance will be very noticable.
As far as I can tell Romano admitting that he hasn't actually been to the office much in his 18 years makes his insider knowledge of the office politics second-hand. Add in the fact that he pretty much admitted he isn't going to any shows anymore? Did he actually go anywhere last year? All I saw was a lacklustre radio performance, a visible divorce, some odd internet dating on the MD boards, crying about money issues, doing some shifty sounding business practices within his workplace, etc..
The guy actually proclaimed on MD licensed property last week that he: "wears his jailtime as a badge of honor" Proposed an All Convict episode. Wow It's stuff like that that says Romano may have some legitimate gripes...but he hasn't done himself any favors.
