Newy Scruggs is a bit polished and kind of a blowhard, but I liked his show when he and Cooperstein did 9-12 on ESPN when they came on-air.

Surely there's a "local sports legend" like a backup QB (like Laufenberg) or some spare baseball player (big head Mench) that could come and fit right in with the personalities already on board.

Like Larry Brown did? :powervomit: Also, didn't Newy get mad about the Fake Newy bit where he sounded like cookie monster and ate the phone?

Yeah but Larry Brown sucks.

Deion (or Michael Irvin) would be awesome but I don't know if the Ticket Egos (read: Rhyner) could handle having another huge ego in the house. They also may be a little to "brotherly" for the station. All I know is that the rare times Deion has hosted on ESPN, he has been great.

Slow down. Those guys are used to making 1Mil+ for 20 appearances a year not 200.

And that's why Larry Brown does the pregame
 
Newy Scruggs is an absolute beating. Did you ever listen to him when he was on ESPN? If he joins a show I'm out.

Irvin or Sanders is even a worse idea. To those 2 people a radio show is merely a publicity vehicle to try to keep their past accomplishments relevant. Plus they dutifully side with the players regardless of the situation. Once again, I'm out.

I think they need to find another Sturm type. Comedy and sports knowledge are pretty much the only criteria that matter to 98% of the Ticket listeners.

I am fine with another Sturm type but good lord not another Packer fan
 
I've tried to warm up to the Donovan BAD radio, but I'm done. Nobody actively takes away more from Ticket shows than Donovan. For awhile BAD was my 2nd favorite show behind musers.

 
Uh oh. Anybody hear the awkwardness after Line 4 guy said they could "make Greggo live forever" by using the "do you like this gig" bit? VERY uncomfortable nervous laughter from all.

You really haven't missed much lately. Line 4 guy has been mailing it in other than occasional attempts to steal the title of most abrasive from Corby. It used to be banter with drops and well's, now it seems it's drops and well's with occasional banter. And thank god October is almost over so Mike's sorry Rocktober bit can finally die the slow and agonizing death it so rightly deserves. And actually isn't it WTDS? I'm going to have to pay attention tomorrow to see if it's does not or doesn't.

Heard a few things on the HL today that just scream "Greggo's gone".

1. Danny playing a return music track. The old Dah..duh..dah..duh - The hard line...the hard LINE. But he was playint it in obvious satire on an untuned guitar. they went back and forth on the music for a moment and Rhyner commented something along the lines of: "That doesn't apply any more."

2. They were talking about something and someone played a Greggo drop which was humorous. As they bantered it up Corby commented: "Leave him alone - he's rolling." Rhyner: "Oh...you don't know how much he's rollin."

In the time I listened today there were just numerous offhand sleights and negative references to Greggo - I don't think that he can return to the room with his dignity intact.

Still wonder what happened to the guy.

Off topic: I always assumed he played for the other team. Anything to that or is it just me? Wonder who's house-sitting for Clyde as all this plays out.

 
Got it from a reputable source that Greggo's in rehab to get off filamentruxtoy.

I thought I saw him at the big gay Halloween mess on Cedar Springs this past Saturday night. Plenty of freaks and weirdos out. :goodposting:

:goodposting: Heard this. Also, when Corby was doing Community Quickhits, he was talking about the guy with the severed heads in his truck, saying when the cops pulled him over he was nervous and fidgety and sweaty; Rhyner said something like, "We know someone like that." All of these little references indicate this isn't an amicable situation unless Rhynes is going over the top and parodying false rumors.
 
Rhyner just re-iterated that Greggo is taking personal time and they don't know when he'll be back, and that any rumors that they were replacing him with an "import" from another market are untrue.

During WTDS (see I fixed it)

After discussing Different Strokes Donovan asked Rhyner if he would adopt him and if he had room for him

Rhyner then said "You have no idea how much room I have these days"

That should go in the evidence of a divorce column

 
In a hasty sign off Sturm just said "the Hardline's next". I'm guessing it was habitual error but it will be interesting to see what open comes up after this commercial break. I personally haven't heard the word Hardline on the air for about 2 weeks.

 
I was all for upheaval, but now that it's here, I don't really like it. It's all kind of uncomfortable and I feel sort of bad for Hammer.

 
They just opened with the classic Hardline theme but called it "afternoon drive sportstalk programming". Now I'm pretty much confused.
