    It's not the size of the tip, it's the motion in the wallet.

    Wait...

    Canceling and then rescheduling my flights to Portland during road trips is making the pilots angry

    I think he may be wondering if there will be cuts in pay/per diem rates?

    Mike Lynch, who is currently the producer for Primetime on 1080 The Fan, said during their show last night that he will be replacing Jay Allen as the host of the radio pre game, halftime, and post game shows.

    Hearing Jay wanted to be closer to his parents. Moving away. Travis said this new guy is pretty dialed.

    Mike Lynch is a good dude. He's been the producer for Issac and Suke for years. A real staple. Real likeable. Has a nice voice to listen to. 1080 lost a damn good one.

    Yeah this is a loss for 1080. Lynch is really good at his job.

    I’m surprised that doing the radio pre/halftime/post pays well enough to be a full time job

    Childhood friend has worked in Blazers media for a while. The hours may be less but the work and schedule is demanding.

    He only gets paid for the games he works so the pay must be good enough to override a full year.

    He (Lynch) said this was one of his dreams was to work for a team so reaching a goal may have been part of the equation.

    Most likely both applied though lol.

    It's gonna suck, he was the best producer Issac and Suke ever had. Even keeled, funny, and relatable.

    Lynch was my producer for 2 and a half years before he moved over to work with Isaac and Suke. I'm very happy to have the opportunity to work with him again.
