    D’Marco Farr Is Leaving The Fast Lane on 101 ESPN

    D’Marco Farr is leaving ‘The Fast Lane’ on 101 ESPN in St. Louis after seven and a half years. The former NFL player turned radio host announced today that due to family reasons he is relocating to Los Angeles. He had been doing the afternoon show remotely the past two months but says that his family priorities require a larger focus, and it’s best for all involved if he moves on and the radio station has an opportunity to add a new member who can be more involved on a daily basis.

    Farr was an original member of 101 ESPN. He signed on when the radio station launched in January 2009 to form the afternoon program alongside Randy Karraker and Bob Ramsey. The show has gone through a few changes over the years, including adding former Cardinal Outfielder Chris Duncan before he shifted over to middays and former Cardinals reliever Brad Thompson joined the group.

    ‘The Fast Lane’ is consistently one of the highest rated sports shows in St. Louis. Program Director Hoss Neupert tells BSM that the radio station will add a third member but he’s interested in finding the right fit rather than making a quick decision. The show will operate as a two-man show until a strong third host is identified. Interested applicants can apply by clicking here.

    Meanwhile for Farr, he announced on the airwaves of 101 ESPN that he’ll remain involved in radio in Los Angeles. Farr revealed that he will join the Los Angeles Rams radio broadcast. According to sources he’ll be involved as the team’s in-game sideline reporter. He’s also expected to make guest appearances on Los Angeles sports radio station ESPNLA 710.

    Nice. They eventually need to get Farr in the booth though. He’s good.

    Translation: He wants to cover the Rams in LA rather than the FastLane. I don’t believe anything else. I hope it works out well for him. He is good in the broadcast booth.

    The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

    Sprinkles are for winners.

    The Fast Lane doesn;t cover the Rams.

    And, whether he wanted to do it in LA is not relevant really because LA people either wanted to hire him or they didn’t.

    Besides, it’s no surprise that an analyst covering a team would like to be in the same town as the team.

    I agree with your take on Farr as an analyst. I like him.

    I wish they would exchange MJD’s and Farr’s role. I am not a big fan of MJD, and although he went to UCLA he is a NorCal guy and a Raiders fan.

    I grew up listening to Dick Enberg and Bob Starr, two legendary play-by-play guys, do Rams games. These guys have some big shoes to fill.

    I grew up listening to Bob Starr call St. Louis Cardinals football and baseball games.
