970 ESPN has major FUBAR this morning

Tuned in to 970 ESPN this morning, and instead of Mike and Mike they were
running the Fox Sports Radio morning show....from last Friday! Then sometime
after 7 Greg Linelli came on to explain that they were having "technical difficulties"
and then he proceeded to do a live call-in show.

Whatever went wrong must have totally blown-up their ability to get the ESPN feed.
 
... much less the live ESPN feed, if they have a copy of the FSR morning show from Friday on hand...

At least they weren't running at the same time... ::)

But on a morning after the NBA championship was decided, this shouldn't have happened, no matter the market.

Yes, even though the NBA is ratings death in this town, I was tuning in to see how they were going
to handle the whole LaBron situation.

What surprised me is that they apparently had NO ability to connect to the ESPN feed. Not even a web stream
or old-school telephone connection.
 
Yet another CC classic! ;) Doesn't surprise me as there is no local morning show or board op on 970.

Sounds about right. From the sound of things somebody got Linelli and a producer out of bed and
they showed up about a quarter past the hour.
