Michael Felger
Michael Alan Felger (born August 6, 1969) is a sports radio talk show host on WBZ-FM in Boston, co-hosting "Felger and Massarotti" with Tony Massarotti, a former columnist for the Boston Herald. He is also a television host for NBC Sports Boston, where he talks about sports as a co-host of the weeknight show "Boston Sports Tonight" with Michael Holley and the host of pregame and postgame coverage for Boston Bruins (with Tony Amonte).
Originally from Milwaukee, Felger graduated from Boston University in 1992. Upon graduating, he worked as an intern with the Boston Herald. He later joined the paper permanently and became the lead reporter for the Boston Bruins from 1997 to 1999. He then became their New England Patriots beat columnist, a position he held from 1999 to 2008.
Felger also hosted a sports talk radio show called The Mike Felger Show on 890 ESPN. The show ran from 2005 to 2008, at which time Felger left at the end of his contract. He moved on as an online columnist and fill-in host for Boston sports radio station WEEI while continuing his television work on Comcast SportsNet New England.
Felger began to host the Felger & Mazz afternoon drive-time show with Tony Massarotti on 98.5 The Sports Hub upon its launch in August 2009. Felger signed a new multiyear deal with 98.5 The Sports Hub's parent company The Beasley Media Group in January 2018.
As of August 2024, the Felger and Mazz program was the most listened to afternoon radio program in the Boston area for 47 consecutive ratings periods, regularly earning a Nielsen rating above 25.
Born in 1969, Felger has lived and worked in the Boston area since 1988. He currently lives in Boston's Seaport District, with his wife, FOX 25 television anchorwoman Sara Underwood with whom he has two daughters. Felger also owns a house on Nantucket where he and his family spend part of the summer.
In February 2025 Felger's father Rocky died. In memorializing him, Felger credited his father with instilling in him a love of sports and a willingness to speak critically and passionately about local teams from a young age.
Felger is considered a polarizing figure in Boston media due to his contrarian and often critical commentary of sport's players, managers, and owners.
