Firing Big Dick

Yeh, ok, this one's self serving to some degree, so f me. But, despite the crap Gordon threw out there on the Rant and on the morning show, he was not fired because of ratings.
I'm not sure I really understand why some of the crap was thrown out there, ratingswise or whatever. It's not like BDH was ever pissy from what I've seen. I can see not really talking much about what goes on behind closed doors, but *surprise!* Gordon *of all people* taking shots at him was kinda classless.

Norm vs Gordon, betting webpage

This one's way new, but still a big enough deal to throw out there. Gam's right on this one. Who cares how Norm makes money? Is it Gordon's place to say a damn thing? Let's talk about your rent houses and how you're a slumlord, Gordo! Oh, wait, is that one too close to the bone?
Or, what about how much of a weird ass privacy freak you are? Oh, that's right, we're not supposed to talk about YOU.
Betting's not necessarily my cup of tea either, honestly, but if Norm can bring in some extra cash doing it, good for him.

And has Jeff Catlin done one decent thing with that station since he took over?
Charity Challenge on Ice : dead.
TicketStock : beating, close to dead now.
Ticket Compound : um, yeh, ok. The most fun was toilet papering the house. Otherwise, who gives a shit about Acoustic Douche?

:babyarm: You can pretty much mark June 3, 2002 as the catastrophic moment of the station.

VERY good points, both of 'em.

I think Sturm does a great job with the pregame show, but only while it's about an hour or two. I don't need a 3 hour pregame and 14 hour post game show. ESPECIALLY with bad point Greggo on it.

And the idea of the Ticket being iconoclastic and doing their own thing and not afraid to do it went out the window with the TMS money. Yeh, you spout your OWN opinions? Whatever.

This is the only thing I disagree with. This was as close to old-school Ticket fun that they've ever gotten. Once they were confined with nothing else to do, it became radio fun for nothing maore than the sake of fun.

Replacing Chuck Cooperstein with Rocco
Yeah, Coop was an ass whipping, but at least he knew his shit. They brought Rocco in to enhance the schtick factor. End result - allowing a diminuative neopalitan with an empty bag to disrupt electrons at the rate of 1310 khz in the atmosphere for no reason.

Becoming the flagship station for SMU football I'd rather listen to a George DeJohn/Al Carroll/Neal Sperry/Fozzy Bear roundtable debate about Middle East shuttle diplomacy than listen to Dick Hicks pine for Ramon Flanagan on a Saturday afternoon while basking on the sands of Lake Lewisville.

I think this whole ordeal has been blown way out of proportion. Yes, GK was a my-shit-don't-stink, holier-than-thou dick. How is this any different than normal? Getting in a real twist would mean that I've really somehow invested personally in the station and the hosts on an emotional level and I'd like to think that I'm smart enough to not get sucked in like that.

I'll admit I soured on the station a bit when Big Dick was fired. I didn't listen regularly or really find all of his topics all that interesting, but at least he was trying something different.

before they became the flagship, their postgame show was great. Now it is just an excuse to run cowboy sponor commericals

ex. 5 minutes of greggo and norm followed 17 minutes of commerical repeat for 7 hours

I heard him doing a plastic surgery show on 105.3 yesterday. I didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

So the postgame show was better with Hanson? Sounds like someone's master has been whipping them above the neck.
