WWZN to restructure Celtics rights?

[Hakim Madjid]

In today's (Wed 5/26/04) Boston Metro (the
strap-hanger's favorite periodical), John Molori
reports in his weekly column that WWZN - arguably the
Titanic of the Boston airwaves - is looking to
restructure its Celtics broadcast contract (WWZN pays
the Cs 2 million a year according to Molori).

Molori also reports that Celtics broadcast producer
Howie Sylvester has been given is walking papers. I
guess 1510 can't afford to pay the man!

Molori also writes that unless ex Celtic color
commentator Cedric Maxwell agrees to a reduced pay
package, Max might not be back for the up coming
season.

There is the real possibility, according to Molori
that Sean Grande will do the the games solo this next
season. According to Molori,WWZN cut Grande's pay in
half.

Molori, also repeats the oft - heard rumor that Eddie
Andelman might be interested in buying the station.
