THere is going to be a great new show on ESPN 860 starting at 2 p.m. Dan Manucci will host and it will be local. Tune this in. I've spoken to Manuch about the show and it sounds like they have some great ideas. THe best right now is Bill Lewis aand MJ . Bill's insight in the locker room is right on. MJ might know more about players in the NFL and College than anyone in the valley.I just HATE the water cooler from 11.30 till noon. SAme callers stupid stupid stupid.

Yeah I don't exactly like the water cooler either. Its not the callers (though the guy that talks like a Mexican is very annoying. You know who he is, he says "holmes" all the time) but half the time Lew or MJ talk over the caller and I can't hear either of them.

You're right on about the talking over the callers. What is the point of having all these coversations going on and you can't understand any of them Most of time when they are talking they are not even talking about what the caller is talking about.Stupid, stupid, stupid!

Remember when 1360 started, it was originially like KNNS on 1230 AM, the Sports Nuts Show was on in the AM before Spanier?

I forgot those guys names, but they cracked me up!!!

Tom and Chris I think were their first names, too many brain cells gone to remember the last names. That goes way, way back. Sports Nutz, Arnie, Cannon, Wild Bill....WOW time has gone by!!!!

Femino, Gaytos, Schoney still the best all time IMO.

The show is titled "Calling All Sports" and starts on 8/30. It is hosted by Dan Manucci and Mike Muraco. Dan has done a lot of things in the past and will be a great addition to the average at best sports talk we have in this town. Mike currently co-hosts AZ Gameday with Ron Wofley on Saturday AM.

Ron Wolfley is doing pre-game on KDUS right now.

Guess I don't understand the radio biz and how switching stations works out. :shrug:

Good lord Toro - you'd better hope those two are better than what I heard on the radio on Saturday. It was awful. The only hope they have is if Wolfley agrees to do the show with them.

I only listen to 1060.

All the shows are good. Even the Pressbox with Swanny and Zenner is ok once in awhile.

The rest of the lineup is very solid.

I like Swanny. I think he is a good interviewer. He's humorous but not a ****** like Zenner. Zenner never has anything worthwhile to say. That's inappropriate.

Listen here:

www.azgameday.com

You'll click it off before they go to their first (of many, many, many) commercials.

I used to listen for Wolf - he's the man! Even some of their other fill-ins weren't too bad, but this new line-up is dreadful.

Dan Bickely is the worst !!!!! I used to like Jurecki but he is starting to act like Bickley.

I can't stand most of the shows.

Bob Kemp does the most complete show and talks about many different sports and he knows what he is talking about most of the time.

I like Mark Asher and he would be great if he wasn't paired with Gambo, I am so tired of them pimping stuff on their show.

Opening drive sucks, DD and hellestrae bore the heck out of me.

Bickley is a dick at times, but he knows his stuff and he is respected enough nationwide to get some decent guests.

I get annoyed every Thursaday because they play the Positive side of sports instead of the ESPN NFL pre season game, oh yeah and they suck.

Kennedy was excellent, but he got a better gig.

Jurecki and lewis are OK, but unless it's football forget it. At least Jurecki knows he doesn't know squat about any other sport.

Zenner and Swanson are just awful I heard better sports talk form a 1st grader.

Russ Bliss is a smart fella.

Russ Bliss's show is sooooooo Boring. How can he talk about fantasy football for two hours every weekday? I allways used to call in to Arnie Spaniers show especially during Fridays when they had the contests.
