I like it although sometimes I have say no one digs that deep into basketball, but maybe they do. AG takes the alternate position but sometimes I want to say “shut up” but it keeps it interesting. I still listen and I think he is OK.

As a severe canes fan, I like it but I guess 99.9 has more canes coverage but in the morning is the only time when I listen to terestial radio.

They should stop tonight JT the brick which is the absolute worse.

Agree with Rigsbee. Although he could care less about hockey or the canes, he has a lot of knowledge, especially on baseball. I guess it is 620 in the morning if I can pick it up or I am going to 99.9. If it is piped in which I think it is,, I guess I will go back to NPR or just go whacky (for me) and just listen to a urban station for 20 years old or go completely espanol.

Why not ??

IMHO Glenn, Rigsbee and Morgan are really the only
on-air talent at 850. Though Steve Logan was by far the best thing EVER to hit local sports radio. Adam Gold … while extremely knowledgeable … should go back to NY (and I’m from NY). One of the most arrogant sounding people I have ever heard. At least in recent years he has laid off talking *baseball* 24/7/365.

Another thing I don’t understand is the fascination with Jim Rome. How you keep that on over Dan Patrick is beyond me.

Big fan of 99.9 – FM reception, local coverage of Canes and NC State is great and great mix of National and Local.

The familiar PA voice of the Durham Bulls is – you guessed it, Tony Rigsbee. Hope he stays on the local airwaves as well.

From your posts, it appears you know very little about either of the stations involved, and local sports radio in general.

“The Bull” has been on the air for three years, and carried 2, sometimes 3, local sports-based shows! Mike Maniscalco has been on 99.9 since its inception. Dan Patrick has never been on The Bull. Between the two of you, I see about 7 sentences…some are opinions, but most of which are full of patently incorrect data.

Mike Maniscalco should jump to 99.9. 620 The Bull, what a pathetic name.

I listened to The Bull once, it was aweful, will never listen to it again. Who will be talking about local sports?
Thank goodness I have been listening to 99.9 for my local sports, Mike Manascalco needs to jump to 99.9.

I too hope he ends up with a winning deal.

Maybe its just that I haven’t been inundated with his opinions and views as much as the other guys, but this guy’s sports knowledge blows me away every time he talks about any event for longer than the score.

This will be a big change on the local sports talk landscape. Probably a good move to get Dave Glenn on FM radio though. He is, in my humble estimation, the premier sports talk knowledge of all things ACC.
