OT - 1270 AM no longer sports talk, effective 9/12
1270 AM will no longer simulcast with 97.1 FM, apparently. For the rest, read the link:

forget it.
August 22nd, 2011 at 7:55 PM ^
well, that's one less thing to distract myself with. season can't get here soon enough
August 22nd, 2011 at 8:30 PM ^
shut Valenti up?
August 22nd, 2011 at 9:09 PM ^
No. Still on FM
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:49 PM ^
No doubt. I don't know how he gets away with even having that job. He's a New Yorker who went to MSU. That's all he does is rip Michigan when talking about college football. The thing is almost all the callers are Michigan fans. Valenti doesn't represent the communuty. He needs to go.
August 23rd, 2011 at 12:02 AM ^
He has that job because people (like you) listen and think he's ridiculous.

is all Cowherd, all the time. Absolutely nauseating. I can only tune in when they have radio broadcasts of Indians or Browns games.
August 22nd, 2011 at 9:13 PM ^
I'd prefer to shut most of sports radio in this area up and start all over again with a clean slate.
August 22nd, 2011 at 9:39 PM ^
To clarify, they will continue to broadcast Lions, Tigers, Wings, just not simulcast the sports talk shows and instead shift to a conservative talk program.

Looks like they're turning it into an even more right-wing version of WJR's political lineup. Heavy on the Tea Party voices. Looks like that one's getting booted from my presets.
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:24 PM ^
Oh sweet Jesus, if Bando got the same treatment/punishment as Wolverine318 did for this comment it would be like Christmas, St. Patrick's Day, and Tigers Opening Day all wrapped into one.
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:41 PM ^
My apologies if I've broken some kind of rule?
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:49 PM ^
I made the same exact comment and it was like wolves after red meat.
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:53 PM ^
Wolverine318 made a similar comment but then he took the next step and started a political argument.
August 22nd, 2011 at 11:55 PM ^
I really didn't mean anything by it. And 1270 was only in my presets for when I was cruising the AM dial between 1050, 1130, and 1270 for sports talk, which is why it'd get the boot.
97.1 sounds a million times better anyway. For when I want that Valenti phlegm shout to come through in crystal clear audio quality.
August 23rd, 2011 at 12:00 AM ^
Oh I know, it was just funny that you made a similar comment to the one that started the avalanch of posts that, as you can tell, were all deleted. The highlight was Wolverine318 taunting the mods to IP Ban him. He all but said the famous line, "I have access to millions of computers."

Weren't those some of em0 or one of his alter ego's last words? I wonder if he still lurks among us.
August 23rd, 2011 at 12:11 AM ^
I couldn't remember if it was em0 or McFarlin that went out that way.

"It is easy to create a new screen name even with ip bans. Even if you ip ban me, I will back within minutes."

At least they are keeping The Ticket on the FM dial and not relegating it to AM. Where I normally find myself during the day (I get a fair number of design jobs in the sticks of Scio and Lima Townships west of Ann Arbor), AM sounds like somebody yelling down an elevator shaft.
