really feel like we need to drop this and move on. We've had this exact argument probably 3 times over the last year.....it's over, we won, move on.

So I'm curious what the receiving corps looks like if Mitchell is healthy and good to go. Seems like Lawler and Bailey fighting for one spot, right? Adams-Mitchell-Lawler/Bailey-Demski-Woogie?

You don't give a ****... Especially about an NFL game. You just don't see women as capable of being in a traditionally male role. That's all I'm getting from your posts...

💯

that's really really strange that they wouldn't have had a discussion with the guy. That's not like The Trinity....

I think this is more about Bell finding a way to cut costs. Moving to a nearly entirely syndicated format with no real costs other than the minimal cost of programming is a way for them to save money regardless of ratings. They've done "okay" with the comedy format in other markets, which is why they're doing this again. It's an AM station...not exactly a big driver of audience, so it's all about cutting costs everywhere possible.

shame to lose Remps, as he was the league's absolute best snapper, but he was the league's oldest player, so time to move on I suppose. Nice to have a local guy for sure...

"The below data is for the 12+ demographic, with the Spring 2019 ratings in parentheses for comparison." == giant poop emoji. Your data is garbage and you should feel bad for posting it. Unless the powers that be intentionally didn't outbid CJOB because they knew this was coming....which is a possibility.

^^^ don't post **** like that, with absolutely no context to it.......ffs. Those numbers are something the generic, all ages, MW 2+ bullshit that really mean nothing. TSN Radio cared about M25-54, and in that demo they did well enough. Much higher up on the list... Further...the Afternoon Drive with Hus was consistently one of the top shows in the whole city every book. Morning Show was fairly highly rated, too, WITHIN THE DEMO THEY WERE TRYING TO REACH.....

I just couldn't even bring myself to respond to that post, but I'm sure glad that some found a way. Sigh. We're never going to move forward as a society as long as people still use the phrase "virtue signaling" every time they see an example of equality. Truly disgusting that in this day and age people still think like that.

It's cases like this where I need a love emoji/reaction thing for this post.... this is nothing but great news.

lol @ trading one of our NI OL for magic beans to a division rival.....

Hex was a no-brainer for that gig. He's awesome and should never have been let go in Phi. Major bonus for Pens fans is that Flyers fans will be CHAPPED that a legendary Flyer will now be with their most hated enemy.

so the Comedy thing....they've been doing this for awhile now. Did it in Calgary about 10 years ago....and other markets as well. It's extremely cheap for them because there's no announcers, basically. It's all pre-programmed stuff that is CHEEEEEEEEAP. It's a major $$$ saver for them.

Stamps apparently really wanted Evan Johnson for their OL, which has lost a couple important pieces. Now scrambling to find another potential starter...

They've been doing it for years, so I don't suspect a lot will change. Keep in mind, this isn't the first time they've had the rights to all teams. They've got good, smart people in that building...hopefully Corus is smart and keeps them all happy.

Calgary has a Sportsnet Radio "all talk" station......not sure it could handle both a TSN and Sportsnet radio.. I know they like to think they're Toronto-West, but don't think there's really enough ears for both companies...

to not tell the employees first is sickening..... that f***ing company, man....

absolutely gutted for friends and co-workers at Bell Media over the last couple of weeks. Sickening. There was a time in my life where I wanted nothing more than to work in Winnipeg or Calgary radio. With age and experience I've come to realize that the job security in a smaller market is worth far more than the money or "prestige" (insert eyeroll) from working in a bigger market. The constant turnover....one bad ratings book is all it takes.....is just not worthwhile. Ugh. Brutal day for media, brutal day for sports fans in Wpg. CJOB is great, but having less sports talk overall is a bad thing for the city.

UK variant discovered in MB. Related to international travel. 5 household contacts...no evidence to suggest community transmission at this time.

Riders also sign both of the Herdman twins...

go back to the good old days....Edmonton Edmontons.......

So you think there's enough people within the UCP voting ranks that would "Vote Rachel"? I feel like if disenchanted UCP voters were going to "hold their nose" to vote, it'd still be for Kenney, rather than have to vote NDP. But, again, I'm a bit jaded because I live in rural AB, which can really be like rural AL at times....
