Another Day, Another WFNZ Debacle

The Dan Lebatard show has ruined sports radio for me. I switched about two years ago to his show and listen strictly to that and the podcast. 

If you want local sports news, you don’t listen to the radio any more. You and me can find the exact same info they have online on sites like this, Twitter, podcasts, and websites. 

I don’t want to listen to some random dude calling into the station from Gastonia to complain. Give me entertainment with some sports sprinkled in. 

Anyone between the age of 18-40 will love the Dan Lebatard show.

Just to make your head spin a little, I listen to WFNZ every morning on my way to work, but I stream it from Knoxville. Have listened to Mac every work day for about ten years. 

There just aren’t good Panthers podcasts, so this is my only good option. 

Same here. I’m on Oklahoma and I steam Mac Attack at work every morning, and then switch to GMFB when Bailey & Garcia come on.

How is this a debacle? The radio station made a business decision. I like Kroeger a lot... hes relatable, real fan, local ties. But he makes a lot of sports knowledge errors and he's not the most entertaining personality. 

Frank is Frank. Kyle Bailey has some talent... strong voice strong opinions. I think he has something going for him. The station is in better hands now than the TaylorZarZou, Marc with a restraining order, and Burt Jensen lineup. 

I'm fine with the change but if you are so upset by this lineup why are you listening to WFNZ and not your prized NY radio...

Y’all are acting like Frank landed the 2:00-6:00 slot...That’s all Kyle Bailey! He’s been great since day 1...I’d rank em as follows:

Mac

Bailey

Kroegs

TBone

 

 

 

 

Frank

Makes zero sense. Either Garcia screws over people and WFNZ or he's that close to hitman or both.

they fired Colin but kept Nate. They fired Yarbs but kept Frank. They fired Nate and kept frank. They fired QBC and kept Kroegs. They could have put bailey and Kroeger together. 

Hitman is an incompetent moron who has hitched his wagon to brain dead Garcia and are going to destroy what is left or WFNZ.

Not sure what you're trying to get at with your oh so clever last line. I mean WFAN is superior in every single way to WFNZ, that isn't even a question. WFAN and Mike and the Mad Dog are the main reason there is even sports talk radio. The one issue is I'm a Panther fan, and during times like the NFL draft they don't talk Panthers. So how about i continue to listen to WFNZ during the draft and continue to point out how incompetent frank Garcia and hitman are, and will continue to listen to the superior WFAN during football dead periods.

My understanding is Colin was note fired. He made a career change because midday sports radio wasn't his most lucrative opportunity.

Agreed, have met them all and Kroeger is a solid guy.  Sits up in the 540’s with us common folk at every home game.  Garcia is ok in person, but he cant take being wrong.

I find it hard to believe he willingly took 2-6 since it will interfere with his HS football gig.  I thought maybe Kroeger was going to do more hornets stuff, but unless he is going to quit he can’t take steve’s job, due to traveling for road games.

I honestly can’t believe this happened. Chris is a good dude. In person and on air. Sadly, I wasn’t a fan of Garcia at all, before Bailey came in. I can listen to Bailey but Frank... I can’t listen to that long. That and personally not a fan of Frank either but that’s my things now. It’s just added to my dislike of him. 

I hope what ever Krog’s has in his future is good for him. Cuz now I won’t listen to WFNZ after 2pm Much anymore.

    • Personally I think he's a nightmare to cover I think linebackers generally aren't fast enough to keep up with him in coverage and cornerbacks don't have the strength to tackle him one-on-one in physically bring them down which would normally lead to a broken tackle or a nasty stiff arm or just bully ball play sure you could find a receiver with comparable speed like Cooper but he's faster than Cooper sure you can find a wide receiver that is the same size but he's probably More powerful than them and a better blocker.  The size speed athleticism package that he is in is completely unique it's easier to say I'd rather have just a big blocker because we've never seen this type of profile before I'm a risk taker I think you would be God blessed if this was there at 19 I think if you can get a guy that's a tight end who immediately becomes the fastest guy on your offense and at the same time that third wide receiver that can stretch and burn defenses over the top that's the perfect what the Panthers need type weapon.
    • I think you're under selling Sadiq. They are two different players in terms of how they win. Loveland is 2 inches taller maybe 5-6 pounds heavier. Comparing his speed to sadiq.. well your comparing a 4.7 guy to a 4.3 guy I'm seeing a guy that can take a bubble screen from the tight end position and turn it into a house call. I'm not saying the guy is a certified home run pick but I don't think there's really a president's for a comparison for this kind of athlete. It's easy to say this doesn't look like Warren or Loveland because we haven't seen guys that fit this profile The closest you might be able to get is Vernon Davis.  He's not as sure far as those guys were but at 19 I think almost everybody is going to have some warts and he's a lottery ticket of could be top 10 in the draft player or could fail I am more of a risk taker I think he fits the athletic profile that could be a homerun, like I said he's almost 40 lb bigger than Cooper and like 4-5 in taller than Cooper so and he's faster. So whatever you think Cooper gives you I think he does that and more. If you want to go with one of the office alignment I can understand that as well but for value as a receiving threat I don't think there's a bigger value at number 19.
