He was a local Cincinnati sports radio talk show host (not from the area so he's happy to sensationalize to dump on Cincy teams) and was canned when the stations syndicated. He's a notoriously bitter, bitter Bengals hater and takes every chance he can get to crap on Mike Brown and the Bengals organization. There's a reason the station kept Mo Egger and Ken Broo. Doyle was lucky to have ended up on CBS's site for a time and now writes for a rag. He's the Dave Shula of Cincy talk radio. Given far too much tread.
And before anyone accuses me of being a homer just because Doyle craps on the Bengals, I'm all for free press and guys giving their opinions good or bad. I don't think everything the Bengals do is great, nor awful. But Greg Doyle is a hack, knee jerk basher, and the air waves have been better since he's been gone.
I respect the local guys who have stuck it out and have worked their butts off to bring Cincy sports fans podcasts and now a day time lunch hour as well as after work stuff. Their work is starting to crack back open doors that shut over a decade ago and I'm really happy for any successes that come their way. They're passionate guys who, regardless if I agree with them or not, really effort to provide content. Doyle's a low hanging fruit picker who usually ends up with balls in his mouth.
On IHeart Mo & James have a ton of Podcasts and update almost daily. Also on IHeart the newspaper guys have the Bengals Beat Podcast as well. All of that content is really good. Greg Doyle... is not. He looks like a douche... and is, in fact, a douche.
Seriously though...we could probably use more guys like that in Cincy media. Mike Brown is a joke of an owner and should be called out more often.
When I lived around Cincy (moved away in 2011), I always noticed how soft the local media is on the Bengals.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
