I'm neither a U of M fan or hater. The hire seems like a reach. Its like the Tigers handing the keys to inexperienced Brad Ausmus.

The latest numbers show that they have lost market share and they are clearly altering their programming to confront a new competitor. Why is that? An FM music station will ALWAYS lose some market share when a new, in-format competitor hits the airwaves. WCSX's market share has slid only a tiny bit...

Amazing! I still think the 90...

I'd put John/Taupin in the top 5 of greatest songwriting teams in history.

Hot Fudge...Right on!

Yes, remember it well.

It started out completely average, got pretty decent then went downhill pretty hard. This last season was brutal.
