Shep in AB out

Post by soapshooter » Tue Apr 23, 2024 6:25 pm

96.1 morning sports had a recent change on their Xs and Bros show now with Matt Shepard in, Anthony Bellino out. As much as I like Shep, I really prefer AB in how he handles the story's on a day-to-day basis. He also has a uniqueness of insight also working at his parents family owned grocery store. To boot being on a couple of sidelines doesn't hurt. Does anyone know why the change.

nothing screams "big city guy coming in" like Matt Shepard.

Bellino's morning show the couple times I tried listening a couple years ago bored me to tears. I don't care to hear long, boring interviews with past or present division II or division III coaches. I found the show unlistenable.

I want to hear talk about Detroit's pro teams, Big Ten football and basketball, and big national stories - period.

This used to be Shepard's morning show, ironically. I think there may have been an interim host or two before Bellino took over.

The much-traveled Sean Baligian was the host for several years....

WJR is all about having their talent exclusively... his show with WJR kicked off in January and I know he's been all over for NFL Draft coverage for them. If I had to guess JR didn't want to share. Hopefully that came with a nice paycheck for AB like I know it has for others when they demand they leave their other gigs.

Great point; I had forgotten about that.
