Now that the Q is no mas, anyone care to speculate on where the Penguins might go? Their contract was up at the end of the season. Rumours I have heard include ESPN Radio (therefore staying with T-S), or perhaps WILK.

Makes sense, both have FM signals, but is the Game totally out of the mix for the Pens services?
I have absolutely no idea why the Penguins weren't on ESPN Radio to begin with. WILK seems like a possibility. The Game makes sense but I don't envision them spending more money on anything than absolutely necessary and the Penguins are going to cost somebody something.
Is the X totally out of the question? They have the Eagles and I imagine them taking pride in "snatching" something away from Shamrock.

Word on the street has it that Entercom has picked up the Penguins for next season with pretty much the same deal Shamrock had. Games on The Mountain. Froggy and KRZ doing the in-game stuff. I guess "No annoying DJs" doesn't apply to Scott Stuccio...

Wouldn't be shocked if the pens were elsewhere, seemed that TS didn't want them on their music stations and by the time ESPN got an FM it may have been too little too late. Although I did see a sales package from a TS rep that had EAGLES football on it recently...HMMMMMMMM

I always wondered if people who give a wit about hockey aren't at the game. Who's listening on the radio?

Smart deal in a lot of ways if true! BUT, games on the Mountain...not a smart move. On WILK, much better move...better signal, and would generate more $$$ for them. Knocking off Savage and Laura on a Fri. or Sat. night won't hurt them, since most of those folks wouldn't be listening anyway since it's the weekend. Losing the occasional Tues. or Wed. Savage show won't hurt them either!
