Today's news is karma coming back to get KJR for aligning themselves with Dawgman. It's also karma for stunts like that bush league Stanford pregame show that Furness and Puckett did before the 2012 Thursday night game at Century Link Field. This is simply IMG and the Athletics department acting like grown ups by going to a station like KOMO while KJR is the Steve Sarkisian of sports talk radio a lot of talk, not enough results. They also did not have enough of a total commitment to covering Washington Football as they obsess like a bunch of neurotic women over everything Seahawks

What is this pregame Stanford debacle you speak of? -

Since that Stanford game was a Thursday night one, Furness and Puckett thought it would be funny to make their entire show leading into the pregame show a "Stanford Pre-Game Show". It was utterly pathetic, and I know for a fact it pissed off important people in the Athletic Department. Puckett and Ian will say no one ever cared about it, but that is not true at all.PostGameOrangeSlices said:

If you can't find humor at the thought of Softy having to host the Cougar pre- and post-game show, then you probably don't belong around here.
And if you don't think that's funny, fuck off. -

Coogs gotta coog. They deserve to lose every revenue stream they have.

If you're the station/program manager, how FS do you have to be to a) let a bunch of Cougs have the lead into your pre-game show and b) to allow that stunt to take place?CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:Since that Stanford game was a Thursday night one, Furness and Puckett thought it would be funny to make their entire show leading into the pregame show a "Stanford Pre-Game Show".

Even if you were FS enough to let them on the air, I'd damn well have a Plan B in place in case they pulled off a stunt like that.
You don't piss on your golden goose ... and for KJR, UW Athletics was their Golden Goose. -
Yep, Tequilla.
I am not saying that stunt is the reason UW went to KOMO. But it is so fucking stupid to let that shit happen if you are the station manager. If KOMO and KJR offered roughly the same for the rights that stunt could have played into the decision making easily. But whatever, I am glad KJR no longer has the rights to the broadcast, everything is good! -
Stunts like that ABSOLUTELY have everything to do with the decision because you know the money is roughly comparable.CokeGreaterThanPepsi said:Yep, Tequilla.

The UW AD will spin it as a great deal for them financially and cite the improved coverage that they will get with KOMO through both their AM/FM stations (big problem for KJR) while thanking KJR for their years of partnership.
Behind closed doors, executives are often the pettiest of the petty. Small slights end up festering them for a while. -
