Re: Detroit Lions 2022

A caller to today's show laid a lot of blame at Chris Spielman's feet. Blamed him, as having no previous managerial experience, for his role in hiring the inexperienced Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes, as well as hiring a coach before hiring a GM, which is the reverse of how it's usually done in the N...

Re: Amtrak remains a joke

The biggest problem Amtrak faces these days is the shift that the freight industry has made by running longer trains that can't be parked on sidings. This has fouled the smooth operation because they no longer are using the rail system the way it was designed. Since Amtrak is only a guest on freigh...

Re: How long before 98.7 is simulcasting 950?

It certainly wouldn’t hurt for WDRQ to flip to a WJR simulcast. WDVD and WDRQ work together for sales purposes. DVD's billing already stinks compared to many FM stations in the market due to Cumulus' lack of critical mass when it comes to FM radio locally. WDVD's billing is only about $4 million an...

Re: Alt 92.3 NYC flipping to 1010 WINS simulcast

At some point, the "WCBS Newsradio 880" brand will go away entirely.

There are certainly parallels here to how CBS Radio / Infinity eliminated KFWB in Los Angeles and WMAQ in Chicago, leaving one all-news radio station in their hands in each market.

Re: How long before 98.7 is simulcasting 950?

We need WAY more broadcasters with even half as much passion as Brady on the FM airwaves! Brady - hats off to ya, man. Your tribute to the history of alternative rock on 92.3 FM today was OUTSTANDING. I hope we can continue to listen to you on 98.7 here in Detroit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er...

Re: WGER flips to 106.3 The Core

Drove through the heart of their listening area four days ago and again this afternoon. Audio processing and signal are very good throughout Saginaw County and pretty good in eastern Midland County. Reception didn't get bad until I was maybe ten miles west of the infamous Sanford Dam. The commercial...

Re: 102.7 manistee

WMOM's signal is noticeably better compared to one year ago near my deer hunting grounds, about 10 miles SE of Baldwin. Came in clear as a bell and was noticeably stronger than 96.3, 98.7 and 101.5. WMOM even seemed stronger than WWKR, whose audio was quite muddy sounding. Was still easily listenabl...

Re: Detroit Tigers 2022

Now, they need to fire the hitting, conditioning, and pitching coaches. In case you missed it, hitting coach is already kaput, see above. So is quality control coach, whatever that is. I'm guessing it has something to do with conditioning. Pitching coach Fetter? Well, our pitching wasn't the proble...

Because the Lions suck ass and have zero realistic upside. That's why.

Re: Detroit Lions 2022

I was predicting 6 or 7 total wins this year, and I'm now thinking that prediction of mine was overly optimistic. I knew the Lions would lose today, but even I'm surprised by how awful they've played and by the injury count. We literally turned the game on as FOX was returning from break to show the...

Re: Big Ten talk

Defensively, Michigan was excellent. Very successful at getting to the Hoosiers' QB. Offense began clicking midway through the third quarter. An unwise pass deep in Indiana territory by McCarthy disrupted what had been a solid drive. I was yelling at the TV a lot because Michigan kept doing running ...

Re: Snyder 1, Nessel 0

Schuette went after the bad players and successfully got past the preliminary exam stage for many of them. Nessel then inexplicably decided to flush those cases, start from scratch, and then botched everything by using a one person grand jury to bring charges. I completely agree both sides of the ai...
