^^ That. His proper name is also censored on this board.

I feel like part of the reason why Detroit pro teams are mired in mediocrity is because people keep showing up to games and keep supporting the teams to where they're still making a profit, so ownership is like "Well why do we need to invest in winning teams and coaches if we're still turning a prof...

Its not that Bill is too cheap, its because he is a Weather Nerd. Investigating, forecasting, and all the other things is what makes Bill Steffan... who he is. He is one of the most genuine people I've ever met. He lives for the weather. ^ This. Bill could completely retire if he wanted to, but he ...

He is one of those “special” kind of people. If you know what I mean.

No, what do you mean?

I thought Bill was fully retired? The last few times I've checked into a newscast from WOOD he wasn't on. Bill has only been doing weekend evenings since he semi-retired. If Bill doesn't have a regular time slot once Blake comes on board, then I imagine what Honolulu suggests will be true: that he'...

I thought they already had the largest weather team in the market, but I didn't realize 17 also has five now.

But Blake is more or less Bill's replacement once Bill fully retires.

I'm pretty sure there's a checkbox somewhere during setup/installation of Windows 10 that lets you decide whether or not to install Spotify. But even if you manually install Spotify, it will start automatically when you log into Windows. You have to go into the settings and manually disable that, wh...

The new/current studio building and old studio building burning down happened before they had all their stuff figured out. If you notice there have been more "issues" in their signal since then. But that's just my observation from what I see posted online. When was there a fire at their current stu...

I wouldn't be surprised if the 'Caps are just exclusively streaming now. The amount of 'Caps fans who want to listen to the games but don't have access to streaming is increasingly few, so it's probably far more lucrative for them to stream without paying to be on the radio.

From my understanding the deal only involves the license and the transmitter. The towers are still scheduled to be torn down and the property sold to developers. Smile will have to find another tower location in the Muskegon area for their signal and go through all of the signal tests, etc. the FCC...

Makes me wonder if they'll finally drop the "Ten" from their name and just go as the "BIG" conference - especially since the current logo has downplayed the "Ten" part for several years now.

What about when WOOD-TV unceremoniously gave Suzanne Geha the boot?

Word is probably still listed in your start menu programs. Windows Update wouldn't automatically remove Microsoft Word.

Cool to see the old promos surprised that WOTV/WoodTV aired prime Wheel in the first few years as I thought it was always WZZM in the 80s until WWMT took Wheel & Jeopardy combo in 93. I knew NBC aired morning/afternoon Wheel in the 80s. Also surprised to see Phil Don & Sally in the promo as I thoug...

Didn't he get suspended off the air not long ago? Apparently the thread on that died the last time this forum crashed since I can't find it. I wonder if maybe he put his foot in his mouth again and management decided he was done?
