GOOD LUCK TO ALL THE FINALISTS AND Congratulations to all the finalists.

I would like to thank the FAN for the opportunity to perform in the semi-finals and to my boy Patrick! GO GET EM IN THE FINALS MAN!! I BELIEVE IN YOU!!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an embarrassing blunder in all of my adult life. For the station that has turned into “New York’s lazy monopoly,” WFAN proved once again that it is not interested in moving forward. Clearly, this contest was a big sham designed to boost ratings and advertising dollars at the expense of the hopes and dreams of thousands. The funny part is, when it came down to the actual judging, MAYBE, MAYBE, just MAYBE ONE of these five guys was the best of his respective group. Now, I will not sit here and berate the five finalists because their performances do that for them. I just cannot believe the sheer stupidity that took place during this judging process. Watch out WFAN, because you’re about to become that proverbial jaded entity who passed on the big fish to watch him pop up with a competitor and OWN YOUR SOUL.

Oh yea, you want jokes? I GOT JOKES….What do tell an ignorant idiot WFAN executive with two black eyes?…NOTHING, you already told him twice!

Well, Patrick Creighton was right!…He has us “KNEE-DEEP IN STUPID.”

I really enjoyed the experience as well. Good luck to all the finalists!

Congrats Otis and all the finalists. This was an amazing experience and I’m proud to have been a part of it!

It’s just painfully obvious that the “judging” looked at a guy’s age, nationality, and appearance – NOT their ability. The judges’ finalist selections are just like the finalists’ rants themselves – bad jokes. Pathetic.

What kind of judging was this? I was hoping for some new, young, refreshing voice on The Fan. These finalists are awful! Wow! I was at the Stamford round and we all gave a ROUND OF APPLAUSE for that kid Nick. These guys just bring more of the same, dry style – nothing new, nothing funny. This Patrick guy is flat out painful to watch.

Shame on The Fan for misrepresenting this as a legitimate contest of skill and talent. Absolutely pathetic.

As a fan of The Fan who attended the Stamford round (and not someone who participated in any part of this competition, so my view on this is one of pure objectivity, not one of bitterness and/or resentfulness), I’m almost in shock at the quality of these 5 finalists. I was in Stamford when the entire restaurant gave a round of applause to the kid Nick, who lit the place up. He lit the entire place up – and Patrick is chosen? There were 3 or 4 contestants on an entirely different stratosphere than this clown. Was he trying to be funny up there?? It’s not entirely clear, as he offered absolutely nothing of insight or depth – nothing that hasn’t been said before time and time again.

I’m not at all shocked that a station run like The Fan, stuck in the dark ages, weighed what seem to be factors such as age, nationality and appearance more than TALENT and ABILITY. But the thing is that the round that I bore witness to – it wasn’t even CLOSE! I feel absolutely awful that the dreams of several young men were shattered today; young men who were hungry for this life-changing opportunity, young men whose passion practically trickled down their faces as they ranted.

This competition is quite clearly a joke. Some (or all) of these “finalists” must have ins at the station, they must have relatives and/or other hookups at the station. Because in re-watching every single video from rounds 1 and 2, it’s completely clear that the BEST did not advance. Shame on The Fan for misrepresenting this as a legitimate “competition” of skill; this is a bad joke. It’s a bad joke, like this guy Patrick standing up there trying way too hard to get some laughs.

To those who “judged” this competition – absolutely pathetic. You just lost a long-time listener.

I am sorry. If you think the guy’s name is San Antonio Holmes, you’re just not a big time fan.

The judging was clearly not based on talent. Daniel should have made the cut.

My pick to win it all didn’t even make the finals…WOW

The sick part is that the farm animals at WFAN probably think they made the right calls. They’re chalking these comments up to sour grapes and jealousy and are completely shut off to their George W Bush-like evaluation skills.

Can’t you just wish the contestants well and not listen if you don’t like them? Don’t see the need to bash people you don’t know.

MORONS MORONS MORONS MORONS MORONS

Wow, Patrick? Really? The guy was imitating voices during a conversation and it wasn’t funny, some of the others were okay but Patrick was easily on the bottom 5 during his group what were you guys thinking

Good Luck Pat!

Wow…what were they thinking….i guess the Fan just wants the same old boring personalities….yawn….whats the point of a contest like this if you want the same boring old, dry style. I guess this is ESPN’s chance to scoop up a real new personality to compete, because with this bunch WFAN is bringing nothing worth listening to.

I honestly thought Otis was one of the worse of this group, how did he make it through? Anything to do with WFAN not having enough minority hosts?

Wow….terrible judging….these guys don’t belong here

You’re taking this Pat. Not a doubt in my mind!

[...] Watch the Fantasy Phenom Finalists [...]

Why am I not surprised that there are three Jets fans on here?
