Mike Jurecki Done at KGME

Interesting, he was great on the drive and then gave him a 1 hour slot by himself in the mornings that I barely ever got to listen to but when I did, you could tell he needed someone else on the show too with him. I cant believe they totally cut him loose though, I imagine 98.7 is going to jump all over this.

KGME just got rid of the only recognizable name they had. He'll be back with his buddies over at Arizona Sports within days.

Hopefully he doesnt have a non-compete clause for a year though.

True. Probably depends on who fired whom. They can't toss a guy and then tell him he can't work anywhere else in town either, unless that's the worst contract in history.

"Wowwwwww" was precisely my reaction.

They should cut Doug & Wolf to three hours and get rid of B-Train (sorry!). Go with Asher & Jurecki from 9-12.
selfishly I would like him back in the afternoons.
They can if they are paying him to stay home, which I imagine they either gave him a severance and there would be a non compete till the severance stops being paid.
Gonna take a lot to get Asher.... he is making plenty of money in his current job....
it would have to fit his schedule which I would imagine would have to be a night show or early morning.
If Arizona Sports got him I would imagine a shake up either pair him with B train or put back with bickley and move vince with b train.

Cut the Doug and Wolf show
this morning they had a 10 minute conversation about the QB Pipkin from Tiffin University, that they thought was hilarious
I almost crashed into the median, I couldnt turn the channel fast enough. Obnoxious isnt a strong enough description

B train needs to go. Guy has no insight and he played in the NFL. At least wolf tells good old stories about players and the game. I was expecting more of that from him.

Ugh, yes. Can't stand Wolfley's incessant babble.
He said he was an unrestricted free agent. I'm assuming that means there isn't a non-compete clause.

Frank Kaminsky is my Hero.
MJ could name his own price anywhere in the Valley. 98.7 is the obvious landing spot, but that station 1500 something could definitely use him as a great boost. As good as Jody Oehler is, he doesn't move the meter.

Arizona just lost the only reputable Cardinal insider on the radio. I don't listen to local sports radio anymore as the talent is just sub par. Now it's just laughable.

Wolf thinks hes clever and funny and his rambling haikus can be obnoxious, but ultimately he does have good insight to lockeroom mentality.
Doug, on the other hand, has almost no redeeming qualities as a radio show host. Like the guy as a person and media man, but he shouldnt be on radio.
The other day they were talking to Budda Baker, and hes spoken several times about his sick mom. And Doug asked a question that absolutely infuriated me. He said:
"Budda, do you try to make WRs and RBs feel the pain that your mom goes through"?
That was the most pandering, fishing, classless attempt to evoke reaction. It really made me sick

No one actually good would want to work sports radio in AZ. AZ has the most fickle sports fans in the entire country. I mean...half of the people are Cowboys fans that have never even been to Dallas...
I don't know about naming his price. Sports radio isn't that much of a money maker. There's really only two places he could go, either 98.7 or the new one that just launched and I really don't see either of them getting into a bidding war.
B-Train is alright when he isn't driving the show. When he filled in when Dan Bickley was in the olympics he was good with marotta guiding the conversations. I'm not sure how Jurecki would be in that role, something to keep an eye on tho.
Doug is the absolute worst host on any of the shows on 98.7
Jurecki is great but needs a driver IMO - he is too monotone to be the lead.
