we used to joke around way back in 1980 when I worked part time at wgpa that the call letters stood for We've Got Poor Announcers. Thought that may amuse some and it is not intended as a smack at the current jocks there.

I think Chris Line has the potential to be good but he seems happy to act like a goof and WZZO Management does not seem to care.


Where is Blake Dannon? He deserves to be on the good list.
 
This is my personal list.....List yours and WGPA is not included....lol

can we get a criteria that makes a good jock or a poor jock?

poor jock:
time and temp
name every break
yucking and puking
talking at you

good jock
natural delivery
audience relating
knowledge of market
talking to you

any other ideas?

relate to your market 101!!!!

Giving your name is important along with time and temp.

I honestly don't listen to enough local commerical radio to have a lot of insight here. Gunther's skills are fine, but I frankly dislike WAEB's format nowadays. I listen to WAEB for the traffic and AccuWeather, WEEU for traffic, weather, local sports, and Charlie Adams' banter with Mitch Gerhart (Gerhart is a bright guy...you hear it in his wordplay...). Other than that it's WDIY / KYW / WHYY and Sirius.

Of course, at age 48, I am not in a desirable demographic for most commercial stations (except WAEB and WEST, I reckon...).

let's see here..........


Tori Thomas/ZZO - great voice, knows what she's doing....and HOT!

Mike Kelly/B104 - excellent delivery

Francie Trout/WAEB - OK, shout out to an old friend, but has a smooth delivery.

One of my favorites, who's not on anymore...some guy who used to spin on WEEU when they played music weekend night.....Paul was his name, I believe! :)


Robin Lee (WZZO) was also one of my favorites, along with Rob Acampora (B104, now with WSTW).<P ID="signature">______________

That would be JERRY Paul. But alas, you are correct, Jerry has moved on. And he doesn't use that fake name anymore either.

I am on elsewhere ... you guys just haven't found me yet. :)

If you would post some clues, can we guess?

And caller #1 wins a fabulous prize pack from said station???
