Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Surfing the dial while traveling on the west side of the state, 104.5 and 106.9 both seemed weaker than normal, and 94.5 The Moose was already walking all over WKLQ by the time I reached Clarksville. WGRD began suffering interference from WJLB near the Ionia exit. These atmospheric / geomagnetic con...

Re: NBA Draft Lottery

The Pistons pick 5th ....again like last year, Houston, with a 3% chance at the #1 pick, win the NBA Draft Lottery... As predicted by me a few times, the NBA has major disdain for the Pistons, weather it be a dislike for Gores, mad about moving from The Palace to LCA, The NBA again screws over The ...

Re: Detroit Pistons 2023-24

I agree; the way the lottery works today sucks. The prior format was much better.

In my view, the worst team should get 14 balls, the second worst 13 balls, and so on. The least crappy team in the lottery should receive a single ball.

Re: Detroit Pistons 2023-24

Good grief - The Hawks with a minuscule 3% chance of landing the #1 pick won the draft lottery seconds ago.

The Spurs will pick fourth.

Houston also did very well in the lottery (relative to odds) and will make the third selection.

Re: Detroit Pistons 2023-24

Pistons got screwed in today's draft lottery, just like last year. They'll be picking fifth.

Top four have yet to be announced. My money is on the Spurs winning the lottery today.

Re: Michigan sign stealing scandal

Perhaps the crappy OSU-run NPR station, instead of asking Gene Smith about Michigan's season, should instead be asking him if Ohio Stadium is dangerous for spectators, given the fact an attendee of commencement fell to her death days ago?

Re: Classic Rock WLAV ties its all time record low AQH share in latest Nielsens

Yup, the usual suspects would be the most likely candidates to buy the station if it were to be placed on the market - EMF, FLR (acquirer of 93.1 Detroit), VCY America and Relevant Radio. Stick value of 107.3 is probably somewhere within a range of $1.5 million to $2 million in the current climate. ...

Re: Detroit Pistons 2023-24

Pistons were denied permission by the Bucks to interview Jon Horst for the POBO gig. Horst evidently will remain Milwaukee's GM. Tyrese Haliburton scored 35 points and added 7 assists last night. Weaver thought an unproven 17 year old from France was the safer draft pick for a guard. Fuck Troy Weave...

Re: Tucker Carlson as Trump's VP?

Here's something that may shock some of you: I think Biden's handling of Israel has been very good overall. I fully support his recent pronouncement to not supply weapons for Israel's offensive in Rafah if certain humanitarian lines are crossed. All the while Biden is effectively funding Iran - the...

Re: Gannett screws over award winning Holland Sentinel editor

They own The Detroit Free Press now. They essentially swapped out ownership of The Detroit News for ownership of The Detroit Free Press in a confusing transaction that closed about 15 years ago, I believe.

Re: BEASLEY DET VP accepts retirement package

I cannot help but wonder if 105.9's dramatically revised playlist (implemented within the past several days) and improved audio quality are due to his departure? Alternatively, perhaps he helped craft those changes on his way out the door? The station is suddenly sounding a lot better after sufferin...

Re: BEASLEY DET VP accepts retirement package

With Jameson gone, I'm holding onto a glimmer of hope that WRIF's god awful audio processing might improve. Mid treble is absurdly overemphasized and overall dynamic range / soundstage is lacking on so many songs.
