It's not even a good addiction, like he was sniffing a 1000 a day off the bellies of $1000 call girls. Gambling. Boring.

^that's the FBI complaint against him, its a hell of a read to see just how far this dude had gone off the rails and how sloppy he was at that. Two of the three counts including wire fraud and securities fraud carry sentences of 20 years apiece. Those nights in fed lock up will be cold and long, that's for sure.

I guess he eliminated himself from being Mike's replacement after he leaves in December. :lol:

Remember the LeBron debacle??? Clown said that it wasn't race related LMFAO. Giving these type of dudes platforms to talk is an issue in our society.

Well, in this case there was an outright crime, but good thing conservatives see most social and personal issues can be solved with building and filling more jails. :nonono:

It's hard to have sympathy for the douche but he does have an addiction. I'm surprised it got to this point. I thought he was married and just figured the wife would divorce him before it got to this.

I feel bad for his kids, and family. The innocent suffer the most in these situations

Peter Rosenberg, on the Kay show might have fun with this. He's had problems with Craig.

Carton has always been one of those hate him or love him type guys. The show makes my morning commute and routine something I could actually looked forward to.

doesn't know sports inside and out but that is the best part of the show is it was just chill and entertaining conversations. Football season is there best too.

I'll miss that fool and laughing at them all ripping on each other... gambling can get scary real quick. Best of luck to Boomer, Jerry, Al freakin Dukes and Eddie bouncing back.

I just don't get it. You have the no. 1-morning show in NYC with former Jets QB Boomer Esiason, but that's not enough? How did he not think he would get caught? I believe Carton has mental issues for which he receives treatment. Maybe he went off his meds? Crazy chit.

Dude was making $250,000/year plus endorsements. But he's got a gambling disease. I wonder if his wife left him?

If she hasn't, she will. Unless the government grossly fabricated evidence (which is not likely when investors are scammed and lose lots of $$), the facts seem to show he took the money, spent it on himself, and then created a Ponzi scheme. They could put him in the same cell with Bernie Madoff, and let him out maybe 15 years after Bernie passes away. Then remove Bernie from that cell.

Man Fucck. Carton. Crack is an addiction. But nobody has sympathy for the crack head when they break into your house and steal your ****. Or the Dope Fiend that puts a gun in your face and robs you. Dude has to accept responsibilty for what he did. Do people have sympathy for the peoples lives he may have ruined by taking money from them? Did y'all see the havoc that Bernie Madoffs Scheme did to people. Sorry for his Family? man please.That mofo was not sorry for his family or he would have not put them in this situation to have to face this.Fact of the matter is this clown acted high and mighty, and was stealing peoples money. This was not just an addiction he also used the money to enhance his own lifestyle. Having Sympathy for this dude is being soft. He deserves everything coming his way. I have no sympathy for him at all. Saying he had an addiction is a cop out. Drug Addicts do crime, and have to go to Jail...He will be Ight.

lets face it, i dont think anyone is surprised. Carton was certainly not like any other radio host. He came across more like the average everyday loud mouth douche, and never acted like a professional. In fact i bet if we held a poll yesterday, on which radio host was most likely to get arrested, craig carton would have won by a landslide.

I am sorry for his wife and kids, as long as she didnt know anything about it. If so then i am just sorry for the kids. its crazy, but not really.

You're absolutely right, and something should be done about this as a societal problem. But this fellow committed a very big time crime and seems to have defrauded people out of their money. If I didn't pay a parking ticket, they'd come after me. So there's that, too.
