Scoring Winger
|
Been to a few games. I was fortunate to see Joe hit it to win it.
Watch about 150ish per year. Usually on tape delay to be able to fast forward commercials in the evening after dinner while on Calgarypuck. Love it but totally understand why people would not.
Also, watched a Nascar race from the top of a motor home in the infield at Daytona. Great trip but not a big fan.

Big time congrats to Scorp and nice job with the question to Lucic. That was a good question.
And I’m in the camp that really enjoys baseball and going to games. Now that said, I certainly don’t stream Calgary sports radio to hear baseball talk.

He seems like a decent guy but be prepared for a lot of sports gambling talk.

Nice thing about a podcast is Rhett could join from Buffalo, and wouldn’t necessarily have to be on it all the time.

I missed the morning show for a while....Rhett kept coming and going, and then was never in studio. It just hit me when you said this: is Rhett no longer in Calgary?

I wonder what the video of Boomer and Pinder shrugging meant then?
Or maybe they were just trolling us.

I'm excited for the new morning show, it has just been amateurs treading water for the last couple of months. Hopefully Rusic and Rose can make it their own and bring some life back the AM mornings.

Taking a while to get to 5000
|
^^ Means they're starting a podcast or some project.
Why would he return to the station he just quit?

It has to be them starting a Podcast, which I hope 960 will pick up, just like how they play the 32 Thoughts podcast

Isn't The Big Show the afternoon show?

Why would 960 pick up the podcast of former employees?

There is zero affiliation with 960 and this new podcast is my understanding

It WAS the afternoon show but since Boomer left, they've branded the morning show as the The Big Show.

So what are they waiting for? Announce the pod and start pumping out episodes. Season is starting.

I don't think there is any chance of this happening. Both Friedman and Marek are SN employees. Boomer is not.

I certainly hope not. I am not sure if you caught Rusic when they had him in the 10:00am time slot for a bit, I believe he eventually got replaced by Marek and that format took over those two hours but George talked less gambling and more sports. He was covering I believe the West at the time so his focus was Calgary / Vancouver. He was pretty good. As you know he has a voice and a style that may not be enjoyed by everyone but he's got some solid sports knowledge and he played a few quirky segments like the you be the judge one. Should be interesting. It's hard for these guys because you can't replace Boomer and the team they were there for way to long and did the job beyond what was expected of them when that whole thing started with Boomer and Andrew Walker.
