Ever since he was 8 years old and took a trip to the WFAN studios in New York, Zach knew he wanted to work in sports talk radio. Gelb grew up on Long Island in New York and attended Temple University in Philadelphia. At Temple, Gelb was the sports director for the student radio station, WHIP, and a TV anchor for OwlSports Update. While at Temple, he was named the recipient of the Richie Ashburn Scholarship awarded by the Philadelphia Sports Writers Association and was also nominated for a Mid-Atlantic Emmy. Gelb interned for WIP in Philadelphia and was also a radio stringer for Temple football games for CBS Sports Radio. After graduating college, Gelb was hired by WNJE-AM as the program director and afternoon drive host. For the 2017-2018 NFL season, Gelb hosted the Fanatic Postgame Show on 97.5 The Fanatic in Philadelphia. The show aired after every Eagles game during their Super Bowl-winning season.

    Gelb: Texans gave O'Brien too much power, "social-distanced from the Lombardi"

    From the playoff collapse in Kansas City to a head-scratching offseason to the team’s first 0-4 start since 2008, the Houston Texans have failed on all fronts in 2020.

    Pearson: OBJ brings “a negative vibe” to the field and locker room

    Odell Beckham Jr. has had his moments in Cleveland, but overall his Browns tenure has been underwhelming. Last year, he had 74 catches for 1,035 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games. By comparison, he had 77 catches for 1,052 yards and six touchdowns with the Giants in 2018 – in just 12 games...

    Packers LB: Rodgers’ first three games are “definitely statements”

    In recent years, there has been a growing sentiment that Aaron Rodgers is on the decline. Not only that, but that he isn’t anywhere close to the player he was in 2014, when he won NFL MVP. Packers linebacker Ty Summers disagrees. “Heck no, that dude’s made me look dumb in practice so many times,...

    Bledsoe: Patriots will sign Cam to long-term deal before season ends

    When it comes to personality, Bill Belichick and Cam Newton are polar opposites. Belichick is often quiet and stoic, while Newton is often loud and loquacious. On the surface, it seems like a combustible combination. It hasn’t been. Newton led the Patriots to another victory Sunday, a 36-20...
