2 months in and Funny 1290 is not doing great in ratings. Ive tried to listen to it when in Winnipeg and 1) Hard to listen to stand-up on radio 2) Programming lineup is terrible. Maybe if they had audio of a late show (though these shows arent as good as when Letterman/Leno hosted) or a talk comedy show..... Cant see this lasting unless they literally do not care about ratings.

There has always been rumors and always will be rumors about sports talk returning. In Vancouver there has been talk about a new sports talk radio station that was leaked last month from a former TSN Vancouver host.
I have heard the same from radio executives around Winnipeg that a current station could be going all Sports and that leads to speculation of which station. The leading candidate would likely be 97.5 as it makes sense for a sister station of CJOB to be sports.
