In fairness to TEM. I thinkthey are trying to make an effort to cover the Nats and Caps. At least the Brian Mitchell show and to a lesser extent the JT show. Brian Mitchell seems interested in the Nats and Caps, but doesnt know much. At least he tries and he has guests who know what they are talking about.
The morning guys are morons. They were tolerable for thr 25 minute drive home in the afternoon, but to listen at work for hours is torture.
To some, the station was s--- when kornheiser was there, but he openly didnt care about sports and was entertaining, just dont listen for sports info (the station at least had something i wanted to listen to). They see the writing on the wall that they are toast if they dont change. They were throwing some ridiculous gimmicks up there. The most prominent was the picture link to "wet on the net", babes in bikinis, on the internet player. Dont get me wrong, I dig it, but it wreaks (reeks?) of desperation ("desperation is a stinky cologne, john" anybody care to name the movie). I hate when sports and sex are sold together. It basically means that the sports product sucks. And basically TEM blew. But over the last week, they took the link down and might be trying to improve their product. Phil Wood filled in for JT a couple weeks ago. I think they really are starting to realize that they cant compete with the redskins for redskins air time.
Thompson is actually have austin kearns on now
