"People are making it like he pitched a no-hitter and hit four home runs on every at bat. That’s not what happened!"

"I'm openly hoping that this winds up being a total disaster for Bill Belichick."
"They instead ran from it and made me out to be the worst guy in the world. I just accepted it and moved on"
"It ain't gonna work. It ain't gonna feel the same. It ain't gonna be the same."
Rob Parker isn’t sold on the surge in WNBA interest, even as Caitlin Clark drives record ratings and fan engagement.
"When people in the Black community don’t agree with me, what do they do? They start posting Rob Parker memes"
"I think he is disqualified from being considered the greatest shooter."
"He was fraudulent. He was a fraud."
"I'm not watching one minute. Because of Caitlin Clark."
"This fall off the cliff is two years in the making."
"Rob, let’s make some noise!"
The show will continue with Parker, but what that looks like and whether Broussard will be placed with permanent or rotating guests of co-hosts remains to be seen.
"I’m devastated that I couldn’t deliver this for our culture."
For the time being, Broussard plans to focus on First Things First.
"I'm starting to think they're treating these motherf***ers as some special-ed kids."
"I'm dead serious when I say that."
"Just four years ago, there were no Black full-time sports hosts on the radio in Detroit."
"I am convinced that Caitlin Clark should play for an NBA team, not a WNBA team."
"It will be young people getting opportunities and former athletes, from Detroit or with ties to Detroit."

"If we all agree that LeBron is the greatest player ever, what conversation are we having? No one’s going to watch."
"I thought that he and Skip Bayless had at least gotten to a point where they could coexist, but apparently not.”
"I cringe every time I watch a player interview another player."
"I got a problem with why there hasn’t been to this point, a Black analyst on a major primetime broadcast."
WDFN was Detroit's first all-sports talk radio station, debuting in 1994.
