"THE BET 1270" debuts on WXYT AM
"THE BET 1270" debuts on WXYT AM
So, what do you think of "THE BET 1270" ? one of 7 Audacy owned sports stations they flipped to it's Sports Betting “BetQL Network"
Re: "THE BET 1270" debuts on WXYT AM
This kind of thing was inevitable once sports betting was legalized in the state. Just another nail in what will eventually be the downfall of professional sports in this country, IMO.
My personal opinion aside, I can't imagine people who bet on sports tuning into AM radio for information on who to bet on. With the trove of information available on the internet, who is going to tune into some no-name radio personality?

I’ll have to give it a listen to try out.
I do like the CBS Sports Radio shows. Glad I can still listen to them on Sirius.
Poor HugeShow - finally got his show in the Detroit market and now probably getting the boot from WXYT - unless someone else heard different.

I could see it. I-heart has The Gambler, which is heard on 1230 WCWA in Toledo. Not a big sports guy so it really doesn't interest me but yeah... I see it as sort of putting a ribbon on a turd.Mega Hertz wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 5:05 am"Coming up on 1270 the Bet, the odds of all MLB games this weekend, but first, here's Queen!"

So will anyone else pick up the H*** show in the Detroit radio market?

I very much doubt Audacity - oops, I mean Audacy - cares whether it gets any listeners. It exists for the same reason CBS Sports Radio existed - so the brand could have clearance in Detroit. It will last until Audacy comes up with its next bright idea to push.
In the meantime, 1050 WTKA exists for anyone who really misses the Large One that much. Or maybe he'll end up on 1090 WCAR.

Now if only they could keep all the betting shit there. I know, wishful thinking. Mike Valenti brought to you by Mandelay Bay....
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

The Large One was supposedly buying the time on 1270. It's hard for me to imagine David Field and friends would want to lose that revenue. I can only imagine the gigantic electric bill for 1270.windsorjoe wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 8:55 pmWCAR is the only “sports” station that would take him.BayCityJohn2337 wrote: ↑Tue Jun 22, 2021 10:34 pmSo will anyone else pick up the H*** show in the Detroit radio market?
When Chuck Fritz owned the station, it was a contender. Now, it's pure uniblab, with no discernible audience.

I *BET* that 1270's ratings stay in the toilet.
Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.
