I just want to say how ironic it is that Awful Announcing, critics of the trend of sports sites pivoting to video, has a giant gently caress-off video autoplaying on their site.

Their site is more unreadable than SI.


I watched the last couple of High Noons on ESPN3 today and it seems that they can't get the streaming rights for all the videos that they can show on TV and on Twitter. Probably a third of the segments are Bo and Pablo reacting to something that you can neither see nor hear. And in podcast form it's all echo-y on top of that. Pretty entertaining when it all comes together though.

So this is impressive. There was (is?) an attempt to create a 3rd sports radio station in San Diego. You may remember them as having had to fire their morning host before they even got started because he tweeted a suicide joke regarding the Coronado Bridge. The guy hired on short notice to replace him has been fired twice previously for dumbshit remarks.

The Nielsen ratings are in.

quote:

As the San Diego Reader reported last week, Sileo’s four-hour morning show earned a 0.0 Nielsen rating in May for men aged 25-54.

You honestly have to try to get a 0.0 in M25-54 in sports radio.

You can hear (some) San Diego AM stations in Orange County and even the IE, although I'm not sure if these are those types of stations.

XTRA Sports 1090 is the only one I know of... it's the only way Jim Rome gets into the LA market unless they finally dropped him.

edit: Turns out they did... Rome is on virtually nothing now. Too much Smacktalk I guess. :rip:

1090 has a really strong signal, it's super clear in Orange County and I can usually pick it up pretty deep into the IE and LA county.

its a clear channel frequency like WFAN's 660, which means its pretty uninterrupted in the region

I used to leave Sileo’s show on the radio at home during the day for my dog and cat. But, sadly, on the third day I came home and they had both perished in some kind of murder-suicide pact by somehow filling the tub with water, jumping in, and then knocking the radio into the water, as well. It was the damndest thing. I think the cat talked the dog into it, to be honest. Anyway, that leaves 198 listeners, and I’d bet 70% of them are pets at home alone.

Part of it is that both ESPN and Fox have good reasons to push other shows and have done a decent job of throwing money at sports rights to grow their stations across the country, but another part is that the audience has aged even by aging radio audience tandards.
