Local Sports Radio/Dumpster Fire Update
How pathetic is Seattle as a sports town that a guy comes here from Boston, then quits after one year yet is able to come back with a promotion? Salk, a guy from Boston is directing programming for a radio station in Seattle. He incorporates his east coast, pro-baseball, anti-college football bias in a foreign market essentially. Brock Huard should be embarrassed to work for a station that has 0 husky football coverage and during the season had the worst coverage I've ever listened to. A total fucking joke that was equivalent to Brock farting on Salk's face and Bledsoe and Damon Huard laughing at it.
Meanwhile, most of KJR's clowns continue to show little professionalism. Puckett and Furness are taking jabs at Petersen's appearance and fitness. Even your average Coug isn't that much of a fucking loser. Wasn't Puckett the guy who posted/broadcast some guy's personal information? Their attempted failed funny anti-UW pre game show in 2012 catalyzed KJR lose the UW contract. Rather than show contrition, respect and professionalism these fucking cretins just dig themselves deeper.
TL/DR version- local sports radio is a total dreckfest and the cord for these stations needs to be cut.

Their making fun of Peterson because he's fit? If true, pathetic.

As always, listening to Sandy is about the only valid option.
Only thing I'd change about his show is the fact that while Churchill is definitely knowledgeable, he comes off as a dbag way too often. -
What are they making fun about his appearance? He's a little short but he looks like the type of guy that runs 3 to 5 miles at 6am every morning.

Had no idea Grey is out. How the fuck does Groz have a job anywhere?

Salk left and came back and now shitting all over 710

It's always special to have a transplant define *your local sports history and tell you why *your sports interests are meaningless.
-
Without voices like Softy we wouldnt have @ForeskinWalletDawg. So it's not all bad.
-
The dumpster fire almost makes the Fabulous Sports Blob seem listenable.

Tom Wassell, Salk's butt boy who is another transplant was trying to talk about Seattle being a football town/baseball town etc.sjd said:It's always special to have a transplant define *your local sports history and tell you why *your sports interests are meaningless.
Not one fucking word about UW's history going back 100+ years. Not a word about how with the two Pete's you could have the major football town in America in the years ahead. These clowns don't get that Mariners get no support because they suck dick and don't have a track record. The Sonics had tons of support (until Bennett stripped them to prep for a move) because they had a track record of winning consistently. Same with the Huskies. -
fucking this. Groz provides no analysis whatsoever. How he's had a prominent job in local sports radio (KJR and 710) for so long is beyond meMelloDawg said:Had no idea Grey is out. How the fuck does Groz have a job anywhere?

If firing Grey was a move to free a prime spot for Wassell, then fuck Salk and fuck 710. Wassell is a whiny fuck who has no business being on the radio. He's a cunt who doesn't get this town at all. If Grey did something egregious, then he deserves to get fired, but if it's just a move to help Salk's boy, then fuck them all. Grey was one of the few solid shows in Seattle.HeretoBeatmyChest said:

Or you could stop listening to sports radio.

i have no idea who you guys are talking about in this post.

I have no idea to whom you're referring.HeretoBeatmyChest said:Brewer is leaving KJR to spend time with his family. They have some new guys coming in. Kim's looking for sponsors for his show. Salk fired Michael Grey on 710. Conclusion- local sports radio is the dumpster fire of all dumpster fires. Maybe more changes to come according to Alex Akita who didn't get the memo that Kim is a fucking idiot so you don't want to emulate his self-aggrandizing ways.

I didn't realize that the 10-12 hours were time periods that one needs to free up to spend time with their family

People are already complaining that the newguy on kjr (Chuck Powell?) Isn't a 12

People are stupid and they expect every host to be a local when on reality, most aren't. Radio hosts go to different parts of the country all the time. Look at Bonaduce.bananasnblondes said:People are already complaining that the newguy on kjr (Chuck Powell?) Isn't a 12

Bonaduce was really fucking funny sometimes. I remember Carolla played a clip of Paula Abdul out of her fucking mind on prescription drugs and Bonaduce named all the drugs she was on and was adamant that what he said was exactly what she did. It's hard to explain and my memory is a little fuzzy, but I remember I was in tears from laughing so hard.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:

Tonight's stupidity from Softy: "Does this loss cost Gonzaga Seattle" ... then when called on his stupidity cites Katz and Lunardi saying that they will "get shipped" and of course losing context on that since Katz just said that there is virtually no chance that they leave the West Coast the first weekend.

Yes!!

When I lived in Seattle I would occasionally listen to sports talk radio, and probably before 2010 I would listen to DC sports talk radio every so often (especially during Redskins season).
I finally realized how stupid it all was and decided it was making me stupid. So I quit listening. All it does is make you dumber. -
