Don't we deserve more intelligent sports talk than this?

Radio is like any other job - with time, most people improve. <BR/><BR/>The young guys have been basically thrown onto the air with nobody really grooming them. Given the fact that Good Karma seems to be willing to invest in some veterans, why couldn't they get better with more work. A low power station is a great opportunity for them. Why not give the kids a chance?<BR/><BR/>ShuAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-1170782486046591002007-02-06T12:21:00.000-05:002007-02-06T12:21:00.000-05:00Greg Brinda has managed to stay on the air for 25 ...Greg Brinda has managed to stay on the air for 25 years and he has produced garbage.

Either you can entertain or you can't. Let's seem them go elsewhere and see if they can get ratings. If not, then they certainly won't be able to get them here. Just putting garbage on the radio won't miraculously turn it to radio gold from experience...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-1170729283712841322007-02-05T21:34:00.000-05:002007-02-05T21:34:00.000-05:00Isabella is a class act and deserves to be on the ...Isabella is a class act and deserves to be on the higher power WKNR. I really do enjoy the High School show and Izzy does a great job. I hope the move is only until everything else gets straightened out. He was moved as a way to help avoid the bloodletting that MIGHT be coming.<BR/><BR/>As for the kids, I really am hoping that they use the lower power station to let them get some regular air shifts. With some time and more practice, they will be ready for prime time. They are not ready now, but they will be within a year.<BR/><BR/>ShuAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-1170714522709986702007-02-05T17:28:00.000-05:002007-02-05T17:28:00.000-05:00"Anonymous" is obviously either Jim Isabella or th..."Anonymous" is obviously either Jim Isabella or the guys from the Saturday show. Rizzo is a radio pro, the guy will clearly get better ratings than anyone else that's currently at the station. My sources tell me it's only a matter of time (the syndication contracts are holding everything up). There will be "sweeping" changes at that point. <BR/><BR/>It's about time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-1170695745328835072007-02-05T12:15:00.000-05:002007-02-05T12:15:00.000-05:00Wheeeew I can't take Tony Rizzo on the radio anymo...Wheeeew I can't take Tony Rizzo on the radio anymore than I can on TV.
