News and Blog Report: Edmonton Sports Radio Thread - Part 5

[TopShelfGloveSide]

I split my sides when he was saying about how a beer tasted like blank in your mouth.

Hahaha that was awhile ago was it not? I vaguely remember that.

Yeah I was listening live when he said it. I was driving and damn near drove off the Whitemud I was laughing so hard. It made his Struds On preamble. They removed it, not sure why.

He says the darndest things on radio. Love him.

1260 and their parodies .

Just debuted a new one set to Billy Joel's "We didn't start the fire" titled "Pete left a tire fire".

Its a good effort...lol

Makes me mad. Literally anyone else could have done a better job. If he simply made no trades and drafted BPA in each draft, the team would be better off today.

I hear you.
We have had a few months to digest this situation and I guess I am pretty much over it.
It is what it is...it sucks for sure but I am not going to let it dictate my mood for the rest of the spring.
This team isnt worth that level of emotional investment.

That said this summer is probably the most important summer in the history of this franchise.
They have to get this right this time.

 

[Barrsy]

Thats too bad. Didn't listen to him much but seemed like a good guy

 

[Todd from Leduc]

Some of those callers takes are just bizarre.

Let go I take it. Who is taking calls game night?

 

[fuswald]

If i have to hear another freaking pillow ad...

Actually I instantly change the station to music when it starts every time. I'm pretty good at catching it.
Its too bad because I don't change back.
Lowtide trying to fill his pockets likely loosing listeners. Same crap with Ryan Jespersen.

WAY TOO OFTEN DUDES GIVE IT A BREAK

I liked him too. Real level headed guy that understood both sides of an argument.

 

[Jet Walters]

I wonder if Strudwick is going full circle back to the 9-12pm slot. Would love it if that was the case, although I'd probably stop listening to Gregor in the afternoon.

 

[BarDownBobo]

That's unfortunate, I liked Millard. I wouldn't be surprised if Tom Gazolla gets that slot now, he's been getting a lot of airtime lately and I personally think he's really good. If it's Tencer though I might boycott the station.

I don't know that he'd want that slot. Does a lot of other things with his life and has a young family.

Wonder if that 9-12 slot just becomes paid programming and isn't even local anymore.

 

[Sanchez]

That's why there was no show last night; all I got was stupid ESPN. Sad to hear Dean was let go. Enjoyed the show and really hope they put something back in that time slot.

The podcasts are pretty great, no ads. Lowetides are uploaded at around 11:05 and 12:05.

What the hell do you guys have against getting a restful night's sleep???

Overpriced pillow nothing special just using marketing to sell not the product (of course they would say otherwise and point to tons of sites saying so). I'm sure somebody has gotten very rich.

That's not the half of it. The my pillow CEO is a Trump sycophant & thinks Trump was delivered by god to lead.

He may be delivered by God but think triple 6

Bell Media making another purge? I saw that TSN 1040 in Vancouver got rid of a few people as well.

Hopefully every company from everything you buy has a CEO whose politics you agree with.

Ottawa as well. Apparently some very senior radio people were let go this week in radio markets across Canada.

Nah. Not everything. As long as they don't suggest Trump was sent from the heavens Im good.
