YepOld School Brother said:Sirois can simultaneously think that Norm has earned the right to stay as long as he wants and also not be thrilled that it is keeping him from getting a host gig. Both of those things can be true. He can also think that Cat should've come up with a creative solution like making Norm part time or offering him the 3rd host gig on the HL.PatAg said:
He's not going to say he quit because Norm wouldnt retire, and Im sure he does actually like Norm.
You can like someone and also think they are being an ahole for staying long past their time
I don't believe that Sirois thinks Norm is being an ahole. I think he understands that Norm honestly doesn't realize that he's past his prime and people want him to retire. Norm's ego gets in the way of him realizing that he's holding Sirois back.
1310 The Ticket - Hardline Question

Last: 1 day ago by double aught
I drove down to Austin and back on Thursday and listened to more Ticket than I've listened to in a while. I think they are past the point of no return. Corby and Cat (Junes as well) have screwed things up so badly. It seemed that the sport segments were generic and every non-sport segment had indirect political crap. They had a chance to improve the station and instead they are making it worse.
I wonder if Bob and Dan were just sick of each other, which I imagine they'd never say publicly
BaD radio was significantly better than this new version of the Hardline

I'm sure working together for that long gets old but Dan and Bob both work very hard, have high expectations of their team, and were a great match of the straight edge and the foil. I miss it. Grass isn't always greener I guess.
Drive time pays more. Think that's the only secret as to why he went to 3-7

Are y'all ready for long time college baseball fan Corby this week?
spanish from OLH to SMU
this signal sucks

I've given up on the signal. Seems like it's Spanish half the time. I just stream through the app now
Jake just made an off hand comment talking about Mino and said "when I tried to quite my job a few weeks ago..."
Adds even more credence to the contract dispute/negotiations rumors.

I don't know what doesn't make sense. They got complacent, lost 2 long-time players they took for granted, and went into react mode. This happens all the time in business

Just heard this on the top 10 and came to post.
"When I tried to quit my job a few weeks ago, Mino's the only person I cried when I hugged."
So he was out the door. Crazy
Have to think if Jake left then Sirois would have been the new mid day host with Dan. Instead Jake stays and Mike goes. I wonder if Mike knew he was being used as leverage against his friend and that was the last straw.
What a crazy time at the little ticket

I heard him talking about college baseball yesterday and thought, "That's weird. Two Texas schools made it, but why is he talking about it."
Completely missed that OU made it, too.
Ebrake for new Top 10 dude, broadcasting the Bally Sports channel over the air during a segment
All of the sentimental sucking off the past few days over these jibs that Cumulus clearly considers menial has been kind of nauseating. This new top 10 guy is a "para professional" who is likely quitting his teaching job in McKinney to live the dream of effing up the Top 10
I enjoy those for how stubborn George is about it.
But peak Musers to me is the random life segments like the one about dragging Main today.

LIV Golf Jub is the absolute worst Jub. Give it a rest, dude. We get it. It's here. Gloat in a few years when it folds.
It's mid June.
The Rangers are average, there's only so many segments they can give the NBA championships, none of them watch hockey….LIV is the only random thing happening. This happens every other year and sometimes more often than that. Summer dead season hits and random sports stories occur.
Y'all act like this is new.

it made me chuckle when they were concerned about golf being ruined when players coming out of college sign with LIV for the $, without proving themselves first.
You mean....like every other sport?

Could Norm get anyone more out of touch with A&M/SEC, to discuss A&M/SEC, than a guy from a recruiting site founded/owned by longhorn fans?
I can't wait for fake Tiger to laugh at Phil's US Open performance on Monday.
The app needs a 2 hour rewind window now so that we can freaking skip Norm and D. I think we can all agree that adding Sean Bass was a huuuge upgrade over Sirois, (lolololol) but it's true bad radio now. Cat should have kicked Norm to the curb and rolled with Sirois.
Yeah, it's an incredibly generic 2 hour sports show. It is the antithesis of what made the Ticket what it is, doing what basically every other sports station does.
Every day, you can hear Donnie mentally rolling his eyes.
Today, they were talking about players nearing the 'noise' from fans/media, and Norm had this dramatic build up and said, 'We're in a new world! It's a completely New World! We're in the New World of....SOCIAL MEDIA'.
A. Welcome to 15-20 years ago
B. It didnt have anything to do with the point.
C. Donnie had to jump in and redirect him back to the original discussion
That type of thing happens all the time.
I love Norm, But he just doesnt make for interesting radio anymore.

Not sure what this is all about. Jake said he wanted it to happen because he's "such an Aggie fan." He isn't a fan. It's a bit, but at least one of our players is making money off their bit.

Honestly, I think you nailed it. Jake's not really a fan of the Aggies but he's fine with a bit that supports us. He had the whole Sumlin national championship bet going on so it's not like he can't conceive of us winning, he just isn't maroon blooded.
Yeah he got us good stupid aggiesAgLaw said:Bob Loblaws Law Blog said:

Their best (Dan Campbell) and worst (Martellus) weekly guests have been Aggies.

I'd say Gabe Kapler was their best.

Hunter Pence was pretty good too. At least tied with Seguin for the best opening theme song.
