WFAN's Sid Rosenberg back in action

This morning, WFAN-AM's Sid Rosenberg returned to work after being out for a month in rehab. Rosenberg stepped right back into the "Imus in the Morning" program and took things in stride, as Imus and company threw everything they had at him, but all in good fun.

As the story goes, Rosenberg was in Cleveland a little more than a month ago when everything appeared to come crashing down on him, personally. He was checked into a rehab facility, and FAN personalities regularly kept mentioning that he was doing well and would be back soon. As 10 a.m. rolled around with Joe Benigno and Rosenberg, Sid was the subject of a nice monologue from his partner, followed by Rosenberg proceeding to share a few details about his situation. He admitted his problems with drugs, alcohol and gambling, said that he was turning a corner now, and thanked everyone at the station and beyond for their well-wishes.

Good luck to Sid on a personal and professional level. He takes a lot of heat for being a jerk on-air, but most of it is the role he's paid to play on Imus' show - but he knows his stuff, and hopefully will be able to stay free and clean and on the airwaves.

It's amazing that so many people just don't get it. Sid will be back on Imus in less than 2 months. Look at all the publicity that has been generated by his stupid breast cancer comment. The IMan has a soft spot in his heart for Sid. He can relate to Sid's addictions. He is already asking how Sid is doing. It's only a matter of time before he gets Sid back on the show. Imus In The Morning generates more revenue for the FAN than any of it's Sports Talk Shows. The IMan can do anything he wants. He wants Sid Back.

Sid Rosenberg makes the Imus show happy and upbeat. Withou him I watch very little

Imus himself always says that he is proud that anything can be said on his show.

Then why make a awful joke, really bad, about cancer different from all the rest.
Women are not exempt from bad humor.
