Listening to his podcast he fully expects to be off the radio at the end his contract unless they throw stupid money at him. He sees radio as a dying business model.

He’s not wrong. It will be interesting if he follows through on that.

Re: Mike Sullivan Gone from 97.1

97.1 is a complete joke. Stoney and crew talking about strangest places to ever have sex and every geek around calling in with their fantssy including Verlander's bathroom. Thats what you get when every single team around here sucks and football isnt yet going. Even when the teams were good they ba...

Re: Mainstream media in this town is kissing the Ilitch family's asses again

I don't understand why the politicians WHO GAVE the Illitches this sweetheart deal dont get the blame for this? Also how does Gores get a free pass from the media. Him moving the Pistons to LCA cost the taxpayers an extra 30 million dollars and unlike the Joe the Palace was state of the art. The Ill...

Re: Kudos to Nolan Finley

Why aren't people mad at the city council who GAVE them the money and sweetheart deal? The Illitches have done a lot of good for this city but they look really bad now. Stadium deals are always bad yet the politicians never get blamed it's always keyboard warriors attacking the billionaires. I don't...

Re: 93.1 Gnash FM is now the lowest rated station in Detroit

We absolutely need another sports station. What other major markets, comparable to Detroit, only have one local sports station? 1270 and WDFN don't count in my book. Why don't they count? They're still sports stations, occupying space on the spectrum. Detroit just has bad sports stations. Just like...

Re: March Nielsen numbers are out for Detroit radio

Yes, see Detroit Sports 105.1. That did worse. All of us on here would've done a better job than the people that were paid to run it. With a smart PD another sports station WILL work here. With that said though with all 4 teams down and all of them locked in radio contracts for the next couple year...

Re: Sports 106.7

That begs the question...what team would be worth the ratings disaster? I believe the Wings and Tigers are a package deal still. So you get to air two mediocre-at-best teams. Lions? Pfft. Pistons? Trending upward but can't count on that. Wolverine sports? Spartan sports? Not like any of those teams...

Re: Sports 106.7

I believe the Lions, Tigers and Wings contracts expire in 2021. MW I don’t think they need a team because 105.1s ratings I believe were the highest before the Pistons got there. A pro team helps but I don’t think they need one.

Re: Sports 106.7

I think all of us could've ran 105.1 better than the idiots they hired ran it. Another sports station will work here but it needs to be done way better than Detroit Sports 105.1 was. Need a local morning show, need to have a mixture of known and unknown talent, MAYBE have the rights to a local team....

Re: Predictions for 2019

It's still VERY early for a "2019 prediction" thread. Usually these come around mid-December. That said - a sucker is born every minute, and I'm a sucker. 8o So, here goes nothing! TV -WXYZ remains an "also ran" in the Adults 25-54 local news ratings and will see a shakeup (again) prior to December...

Re: Predictions for 2019

Look at how many AM Stations in Detroit are doing sports and none are even registering a 0.1 in any ratings why and how are they existing even if they received a 0.5 in a book Iheart should sell 1130 and the same goes for Entercom with 1270 I’m sure some Ethnic or Religious Companies would be inter...

Re: McAllister out at 97.1

If the ratings were high most likely Moss is right saying Bill was not well liked by the staff at 97.1. Also kind of strange Stoney just signed a new deal and already has a new partner.

It's about damn time. Maybe now I'll give that station a chance again. I personally know people who say bill is a tool in person so I don't have that much sympathy for him.

Re: Mike Valenti, Such A Tool

It's their job to piss you off. Perhaps your right and it certainly appears to work. But radio isn't always about pissing people off and for me its kind of sad. You guys probably know more then me about ratings but how did WDFN do in their prime. To me that was a perfect sports station. 95% sports ...

Re: Mike Valenti, Such A Tool

For over a year the only time I turn on 97.1 is for the Tigers, Wings and some weekend shows. So I miss all the weekday garbage that's on that station and my sanity is a lot better lol.
