OT: Mike Jurecki terminated

[POISON]

I live in Oklahoma so I haven't listened to these guys, I'd stream it if I could but my job prevents it. I've follow Jurecki on twitter and tweeted back and forth 10 times maybe, kind of comes off as mister know it all and borderline rude...

Bickley won't feed the fans sunshine and rainbows. Always appreciate his takes and find myself in agreement in most cases.

B train is awful unless you enjoy a fluffy show with no real takes on anything.

Jurecki...used to be pretty tapped into the Cards and had good insight. Lately his stuff sounds "made up." Lol

 

[Garthshort]

I always appreciated his "info". Best of luck to him.

I am hoping MJ lands at NBC Sports Radio AM 1060 PHX. They need more local sports talk. Bob Kemp is good but needs a co-host maybe MJ can get that.

Are you still doing shows, Jim?

 

[basebald]

Yes I am still doing a sports show.

I like B-Train, but he was in over his head as a solo guy. I thought the idea of bringing in a co-host to work with him was great, but IMO, he treated Jurecki as a guest... not a partner. They never really gelled and the show would stall.

Additionally, both of their knowledge base was primarily Cardinals, which is great in-season... but they really struggled during the lulls of the off-season.

I enjoy Bickley's blasts at the start of his shows, but those are prepared reads, not spontaneous. For all of Calvisi's goofiness, he is extremely quick witted, which makes him great for live events like radio talk.

IMO, some of Dan's takes are completely off-base, and I probably disagree with him more than any of the other 98.7 hosts, but that doesn't bother me. Personally, I think Vince is fabulous, and really the perfect partner for Bick, whom I consider a Phoenix outsider. Hoping four hours of them together doesn't get old.

The only show on 98.7 that's somewhat tolerable is Burns and Gambo when Gambo takes his meds. Other than that, the station has taken a nosedive.

Perspective. The station is a Godsend for those of us on the East Coast starved for Arizona Sports information. 15 years of Mike & mike make anyone on 98.7 more than tolerable.

Go Cards!!!

I live in L.A. and somehow, I'm still connected to Arizona sports, whether it be through here, Twitter, or other outlets. I think when guys like Bickley go shock-jock in local sports, it really makes it intolerable.

Mike your a stalker, and they're nice to you because they're afraid....Very afraid....

Everybody likes you. You're the social butterfly of our group always.

 

[basebald]

MJ will get a job locally. If NBC Sports Radio AM 1060 PHX does not hire him maybe 1580 The Fanatic will.

I like 98.7 and think they do a pretty good job with the on air staff. I download the Bickley and Marotta Show and Burns and Gambo podcasts. Listen a day behind but it is more than worth is to be able to pause and fastforward through stuff I don't care about or when they get repetitive.

Who me? I’m always the shy one Lol

OK John and I just stand back and watch you work the room, while the girls just do their own thing. If that is shy, then....well OK! Ah hell, it's your story tell how you want. It's not a lie if you believe it...

Yeah, that's the only way I listen. On 2x speed and using Smart Speed to reduce blank spots I can listed to each 10min segment in just a few minutes.

He’s turned into kind of an ass towards fans in social media. I remember having a discussion with him about Rob Gronkowski on his Facebook page and he DMed me to ask that I delete all of my comments because he thought I was wrong.

So did he delete his FB account today, or just block me for proving him wrong on facts?

 

[Dback Jon]

i hope Jurecki is reading this thread and makes some adjustments towards fan interaction.

He hasn't
