Re: Loco 4 Jeopardy goof
WoF and Jeopardy have been on channel 4 for at least 40 years. Is that the case in most other markets as well? Have they ever jumped ship in other cities? Or are most cities similar to Detroit, with 40-year relationships? I’ve always found it strange that the Chicago station doesn’t air them back-to...

Re: Hurley says "no thanks!" to the Lakers
I think the Lakers and LeBron would be best to part ways at this point. From the Lakers point of view, LBJ is giving you what, maybe two more years. I don't think there is anything that will happen in those two years that will push them to the forefront of the Western Conference. I can't see it like...

Re: Ty Cobb bumped from 1st place
The problem will be commensurate with comparing apples and oranges. Though individual player talent among star Negro League players are likely on a par with MLB, there'll always be the question of overall player talent and level of competition. It probably won't stop here. People are starting to ta...

Re: April Ratings
WJR at 1.7, perhaps an all time low. Who is fired first? I still cannot fathom how this station was able to squander its golden history and massive signal with such uncreative and lackluster programming. WJR does well. They have strong billing numbers. Many advertisers and they hold their own. Drew...

Re: Weather reporting
I suspected it might've been sudden. If there was any lead time on the tornado warning (if even minutes), then the NWS did a good job. I was up late watching some online coverage. The guys there noticed it spin up on radar and it probably was about 2 minutes after that when NWS issued the tornado w...

I remember listening to the Sunday Sports Albom back in the day thinking whoever this other guy is, he's so much better than the little scab, Mitch. I listened to Sunday Sports Albom religiously back in the day, and always thought the best weeks were when Mitch was on assignment for the Free Press....

Re: WTF?> WDIV F*cks up NBC news feed on 4.3, again.
Late Night on Friday 1/12, while the snow and ice was flying and before Xfinity went out on me, I channeled past MeTV (298/4.3), and it was simulcasting the Tonight Show, in some bizarre aspect ratio, instead of regular MeTV fare. They just can't get that sh*t right. Yes, at 12:35 I switched over t...

Re: Detroit Lions 2023
So I'm trying to figure this out now. If I'm correct, if Detroit wins, they would get a 2nd round home game against the winner of the Bucs-Eagles game IF the Packers beat the Cowboys. If the Cowboys in, then Detroit would go on the road to Dallas. Correct. The 49ers will play the worst team remaini...

Re: Ken Calvert, R.I.P
I began listening to CSX semi-regularly when he was hired for afternoon drive there. I want to say that was 2000 or 2001? The station started sounding better around that time (it was a very weak sauced classic rocker before then). I was very impressed by how good he sounded in that time slot. Who d...

Re: Pat Sajak retiring
Who will replace Vanna when she retires? Will they be able to get along with Ryan? How about the lovely Maggie Sajak? She makes a promotional appearance on every show. It would not surprise me. I believe Pat is staying on for two more years as a consultant with the show, he can pull some strings.

Re: WJR, boring programming
Help me understand How is a #16 rated station a ‘cash cow’. WJR is sold on emotion, not ratings. As you yourself said, older listeners reminiscing. Older reminiscing advertisers who've been buying Paul W. etc. for years keep them in business. Sports probably brings in the most coin though. Maybe Ma...
