Random Monday media notes

*Christine Craft will be filling in for Hal Ginsberg on KRXA540 today, (Monday) at 8 AM with a biggie. You can hear it streaming live.

*Yeah, I heard some of you saying that no, actually knibber and Comcast covered the Sabean/Posey deal in earnest. Bruce too. Sorry, but 'yous all might be drinking some weird kool-aid. I heard and watched all of it. You call that critical? Maybe I expect more, then again, wait!, I do.

I'm not a chamber of commerce kinda guy. I want a whole lot more, not just insincere ranting and raving. There's a whole lot more to this whole crazy story and I wish someone out there not connected nor whose monthly nut was tied to the home team.

*A dream scenario: Dan Noyes, one-on-one with Sabean, unedited.

*I'm not that much enthralled with Mr. Bruce of late; maybe he's trying to impress the FM guys in the hopes of getting a gig, who knows.

*Yes, I heard about two minutes of the "Dibs" with the rest of the yutzes and that was about enough.

*If you want to see what I call a real good take on the Giants/Sabean/Posey mess, read Scott Ostler in Sunday's Chron, (paywall) but available Tuesday at sfgate Now THATS telling it like it is.

*You know, those of you who are constantly pissed off and like to take personal shots, have the balls to ID yourself. As I have told people constantly, sure, go ahead and get prissy with me, I can take it. Even the personal shit too, as long as you own up to it by stating your name, got that, interns?

*Imagine that: A new FM sports outlet that is hiring, (and trying to hire) a bunch of Knibber's re-treads. Go figure. So much for originality. And that morning show? Just lovely...for those of you who thought I would never, ever bash the new guys, I rest my case. And just who the fuck is Monte and JD anyway? What, did Entercom raid the Bakersfield Denny's?

*Maybe I'm right and the rest of you are just wrong.

  1. Monty is a self-serving arrogant jackass, just like most sports radio talk show hosts!

  2. Radnich gave Scott the death stare as she described it because she said that the Posey topic needs to move on. On TV he stared at her..and she was right. You know,it would have been better if he had just said,"My show I think it's intersting"...like he would do with Dibs or Ray. It's like he never met a lesbian.
    Man,you can feel the frustration building on that show-Scott,biting her lip on the homophobe jokes all morning,Radnich not able to do his Booty call topics..Conner going hours and hours without ever saying Scotts name..I havent heard him ask her a single time her opinion. Its now well over a week?..two?

  3. Monty has a similar voice and same cadence as Rush Limbaugh. That alone make him un-listenable.

  4. Also Rich,as far as KNBR and dirty tricks? I would warn anybody who ever wrote a angry email to that station-and you got under their skin-..that KNBR's resident techs like to hack into those writers computers. A warning..

  5. Sounds like Dibley's replacement isn't going over well with the host. Add the fact that the station needs to give away money ("Listen at 10:30 for your chance to win") for ratings, I think Gary has stayed a bit too long.

    But, as you stated earlier, he needs the money.

  8. Yeah, Katie Couric to ABC. Hope they didn't pay top dollar on that one. A talk show? Really? Although she does fluff better than hard news. It might be better to transition her over to Good Morning America and cut the dry boring fish-out-of-water George Stephanopoulos.

  9. Why doesn't 95.7 have a web site? I'd be shocked if this entity still exists as a sports radio station a year from today. What do you think Rich?
