Natty, eh? You must shop at either the 54th St or Alpine Ave Meijer. It flies off the shelves there. :)

Re: Detroit Pistons 2023-24

Tobias Harris was a very good player in his prime, but it is perfectly clear to anyone who watched the Knicks - Sixers series that he has become or is quickly becoming a has-been.

If the Pistons were to pursue him in free agency as previously rumored, that would be a massive mistake, in my opinion.

Re: Mackinaw City FM has just been sold

Listened for a bit online. Not a bad sounding station even though the music isn't to my personal liking. This is a rock-leaning classic hits station.

Re: Bally Sports May Lose TV Rights to MLB Next Week

Some of the regional sports fee must be attributable to the Big Ten Network, as only an $8 to $10 bill reduction is being granted to Michigan subscribers. As I recall, the regional sports fee on my bill when I subscribed to Comcast was closer to $15 a month. Bally's wants $19.95 a month for streamin...

Re: Ron Cameron

That would depend on if any of the hosts-to-be ever appeared on his radio show or old cable TV show.

If yes, then he'd love the new station.

Re: WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Tough to say.

More likely, Cumulus was just looking to cut payroll, the listeners and ratings be damned.

Re: WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

No concrete reason was ever given to my knowledge.

Tony has a well maintained FB page but never discussed it there, either. I suspect he is bound by an NDA.

Re: WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Formulaically, that's about right. A good chunk of WLAV P1s hate alternative rock. When the station began playing two and sometimes even three 90s tracks an hour a decade ago, numerous angry comments were posted on their FB page and the ratings crashed. WLAV should take a cautious approach with rega...

rock and classic rock are dying formats - the big band format for boomers and X'ers
WGRD and WRIF are almost always top 3 performers in Adults 25 to 54 and Adults 18 to 49.

The same also holds true for Rock stations in Seattle, Philly, San Diego, Tampa, Minneapolis and elsewhere.
