Dan Sileo fired

  • WQAM (560-AM) has fired show host Dan Sileo after 11 controversial months.

    WQAM program director Jorge Sedano confirmed that the station had parted ways with the former Miami Hurricanes lineman, who came to the station in April, originally as a drive-home host.

    Sileo was moved to the 10 a.m. slot after Sedano took over as program director in September.

    Sileo took to Twitter to comment on his firing, saying: "Want to thank the Folks at WQAM for having me...We differ on content...WISH them WELL and GOOD LUCK..I WILL NEVER CHANGE!!!!"

    Sileo followed up that tweet with others calling the station "soft" and that "WQAM isn't for me" because it feared him.

  • I liked his rant after they lost to K-State. I can see why they wouldn't want a clown like that on the radio, but I couldn't stop laughing at his expense.

  • Is this the same guy who said the Canes should go back to maming and hurting guys on defense to prove their tuffness? If so, lulz.

    The rant. It was the first time that I can recall ever enjoying one of his shows ... or at least a portion of one show. I think I heard it first on the Jeff Cameron show ... or one of the streaming services. Quit listening to anything he said years ago so it was a treat to be able to handpick just that one segment where he publicly melted down.

    While listening to it, I was worried about (okay, subconsciously hoping for) Dan having a Scanners moment ...

  • I enjoyed him down here. He told it how it is, even if Canes didn't like it.

  • He was the biggest steaming pile of whale shit the Bay area ever saw, both as a football player and as a radio host. His ignominious demise cannot happen soon enough.

  • He called out Erin Andrews on twitter is only reason I know who he is. Needless to say he got owned. Sounds like a typical Miami fan. Dumb as hell and beats his chest about absolutely nothing
