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).

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
