Dennis Neumann, Richie Adubato and Joey Colon were all let go in 2020.

Joey Colon????
Tell me he was elevated to team owner or COO? I’ll die for Joey. Guy is electric and I don’t speak a word of Spanish.

To save money during the COVID pandemic, the Magic laid off the entire radio broadcast crew and opted to simulcast the television broadcast on the radio.
An absolutely shameful move IMO. Pure cheapness.

I like that they're going back to radio versus the simulcast option. And Jake Chapman has definitely paid his dues. He's good by me.
But I do miss Dennis and Richie. That said, they weren't going to be calling games forever, even before they were let go in 2020.
One day we'll have to live in a would where Paul Porter is no longer the PA announcer and that's a thought I don't like to think.

What bull. Im sure this Jake guy will be fine, but Dennis Neumann was the best in the game.
Also never listened to Joey Colon before because I dont speak spanish, but he seemed to have fun personality and was there forever too. I really liked seeing him on tv.

Joey Colon is a legend. Damn shame they let him go.
