The problem will be commensurate with comparing apples and oranges. Though individual player talent among star Negro League players are likely on a par with MLB, there'll always be the question of overall player talent and level of competition. It probably won't stop here. People are starting to ta...

I have Spectrun for my cable and I still have Bally's and the Tigers, some times their not worth watching but I like baseball,

Same with me with Wow Cable. Business as usual with Bally's, it has not gone anywhere.

WJR at 1.7, perhaps an all time low. Who is fired first? I still cannot fathom how this station was able to squander its golden history and massive signal with such uncreative and lackluster programming. WJR does well. They have strong billing numbers. Many advertisers and they hold their own. Drew...

I suspected it might've been sudden. If there was any lead time on the tornado warning (if even minutes), then the NWS did a good job. I was up late watching some online coverage. The guys there noticed it spin up on radar and it probably was about 2 minutes after that when NWS issued the tornado w...

I remember listening to the Sunday Sports Albom back in the day thinking whoever this other guy is, he's so much better than the little scab, Mitch. I listened to Sunday Sports Albom religiously back in the day, and always thought the best weeks were when Mitch was on assignment for the Free Press....

Late Night on Friday 1/12, while the snow and ice was flying and before Xfinity went out on me, I channeled past MeTV (298/4.3), and it was simulcasting the Tonight Show, in some bizarre aspect ratio, instead of regular MeTV fare. They just can't get that sh*t right. Yes, at 12:35 I switched over t...

So I'm trying to figure this out now. If I'm correct, if Detroit wins, they would get a 2nd round home game against the winner of the Bucs-Eagles game IF the Packers beat the Cowboys. If the Cowboys in, then Detroit would go on the road to Dallas. Correct. The 49ers will play the worst team remaini...

I began listening to CSX semi-regularly when he was hired for afternoon drive there. I want to say that was 2000 or 2001? The station started sounding better around that time (it was a very weak sauced classic rocker before then). I was very impressed by how good he sounded in that time slot. Who d...

Who will replace Vanna when she retires? Will they be able to get along with Ryan? How about the lovely Maggie Sajak? She makes a promotional appearance on every show. It would not surprise me. I believe Pat is staying on for two more years as a consultant with the show, he can pull some strings.

Help me understand How is a #16 rated station a ‘cash cow’. WJR is sold on emotion, not ratings. As you yourself said, older listeners reminiscing. Older reminiscing advertisers who've been buying Paul W. etc. for years keep them in business. Sports probably brings in the most coin though. Maybe Ma...

Jay Mariotti??? I didn't know that hack was still around. How embarrassing that you're clinging to this bullshit and don't have the guts to admit it is because you know Harbaugh has built a powerhouse. Marriotti?? Wow, I haven’t heard of him since Max Kellerman was hosting Around The Horn two decad...

Most people have no clue about railroads.

The WNDU reporter doing their live shot called the lead locomotive the first car.

Trains can run at 110mph out there. Luckily nobody was seriously hurt.

Does Amtrak run at 110mph?? What speed does the Acela line run at?

This actually kinda sucks for me, because "Whose Line is it Anyway" is the only show on a "Big 5" network that I watch. Lucky for me, at least I can get WTVG. Yes! I agree. Love me some Whose Line. I saw an interview with Drew Carey where he said that he still gets approached more by people wanting...

And now Diamondbacks come back to win in the 8th inning against Phillies. Tied the series up at 2 games apiece.
