A radio station app. Yeesh. It would be nice if the goddamn team had a network even 60% as large as the Buckeyes. I never have to download a ********ing app to listen to the Buckeyes.

 

Sad thing is, I think the days of sports teams having an extensive radio network are a thing of the past. I can remember when you could turn on the radio and have live sports on multiple stations, and for major sports, you could find local stations across the state that would carry the games of the team in their market area. Unfortunately, most of those radio stations would now rather carry syndicated sports talk from Jim Rome wannabes instead of live sports. This is especially true now that a lot of local sports stations are affiliated with ESPN Radio. It's probably easier for sports teams to have one local radio partner and just stream that feed over the internet.

 

at least 2000. i was in 212 and it was everything to my left was black and gold

 

It wasn't *that* long ago when we were on The Zone, was it?

The radio situation is finally back to where it should be after that simulcast mess. I've got my eye on the dates that are shared with OSU football. That will be the real test.

 

If someone listens over-the-air to an affiliate, would that affect the flagship's ratings at all?

If you're the flagship station, would you rather them listen to your feed online or to an affiliate?

For example, would Jim Rome rather the listener tune in to Columbus FM radio or the official Jim Rome app?

 

Probably depends on revenue sharing of adverts sold or how big of a fee Rome gets for giving permission to air his show.

 

You deserved to.

 

Gary lol is there a back story to scary Gary ?

 

Totally not true but he shitted on us for 2 seasons he looks like a totally different player. Now he always hustled and fell down a lot , drew fouls etc..: but in the final 3rd he was trash. At his position we need production. I still would not offer him a long term contract. Not just his age but because he was not productive. Previously i would offer him very low salary at this point as long as he is not a DP. He has this year consistency and stepped up to be a leader if Trapp was gone I would vote him Captain

 

You can thank MLB Advanced Media for that. You used to be able to stream MLB games over the internet, but then they started offering all games streaming for free through the MLB app. Then they decided that, if you want to stream the radio feed, you had to upgrade to the premium version of the app. Now I think they charge you an annual subscription. But once MLB started charging for access to the audio feed, all the radio stations had to blackout their audio streams and air alternate content during the games.

 

I guess someone already trademarked FC?

 

Good win. Zardes, Room, Trapp, Mensah, and Santos all had good games. Crognale shows once again why I think he should be in the USL. I can't wait to have Lalas back. A Lalas/Mensah CB pairing could be deadly.

Mokhtar hasn't done if for me yet but he may need some time. I think in the off season we need to find a #10. Santos has been good centrally but he's not creative enough to get others involved. I do think he's done enough to get re-signed.

 

Gary the knifey lion

What a joke

I think scary Gary is more like it

 

I feel like Mokhtar is still trying to get on the same page as everyone else. There are some things he does which are nice, other things he does which would be really good but he has to stop because no one is making the run he thought, and then there are other times I wondered why he did what he did.

And this is weird for me to say but... I kind of would like to see Santos as a second forward in a 4-4-2 for a couple of games. Have Zardes be the target forward with Santos using his speed to pull defenders away from Gyasi and/or make quick runs behind the defense's line.

 

My thoughts exactly but Pedro , Diaz ,Zardes with a new DP 10 and a new 8 ( give me Nagbe)

 

Except Jimenez can play with both feet

 

Caden is the new Jimenez and a better dmid

 

Baseball has it's own pay audio service, Gameday Audio. That's why.

I used to be able to listen to Phillies games at night due to the old WCAU's (1210) being a "clear channel" station. But they went to FM. So it's been a few years (though once HoF broadcaster Harry Kalas passed, it wasn't the same).

 

Or "C"...
