Local sports radio is awful

They have been on the air for awhile. there must be a reason for their success because they are still on the air. It not the bible for sports but its ok to keep a pulse on the local sports if you dont get the paper or sirius radio.

I use to listen to Pete Franklin on WWWE as a kid in Ohio. Everything else pales in comparison.

Lack of competition is probably a big reason why they're still around. For local info, what else is there?

As a station, they've chosen to cater to the idiotic "Jim Rome" type fans, and as a result a significant portion of their on air "talent" are just as moronic as their callers.

Maybe if they had local competition, they'd be better, but it's pretty rare for there to be more than one "sports station" in a given area.

We have three stations here in Raleigh. 850 the buzz is horrible. 620 has one good host - Bomani Jones. 99.9 the fan has some pretty good local shows, but they just partnered up with espn radio so I don't know whats going to happen there.

The Whack Attack is the worst. I do not know how that dumb clown keeps a job. He is garbage. Of course the Pac Man show is going to be mostly rednecks. While I think Gary in the morning is the most insightful of the bunch. WFNZ is basically a message board with sound and the gayest host ever(Chris McClain).

    • Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.
    • That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.
    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
