OHh Brother! Funnier than stage show, props to Rich of T&R
 
facebookie‎ RT @charliesheen: As promised tonight!! I'll be live with @Toucherandrich 98.5 the Sports Hub Boston. Listen at www.985thesportshub.com call in (617) 779-0985
 
Hats off to CBS Radio for scoring this pop culture coup! As far as I'm concerned, the debate is over.....Sports Hub definitely has the momentum going for them.

The only question remaining......When does CBS start expanding its New England sports-radio brand to adjacent markets like Worcester, Providence, etc?

The "EEI Network" may still be doing OK, but the Boston mother-ship is showing signs of wrinkles and aging.

In other words, BZ-FM is winning! ::)

Hats off needs to go solely to Rich Shertenleib, not CBS as a whole....they didnt' do it, he did it by himself

for those who don't like WEEI, how may they improve?
 
98.5 probably has a far reaching signal as it is, but indeed there are other parts of New England that might consider simulcasting it (CBS properties or not). Consider though that in certain cities, a station which might do this may not necessarily have the rights to the Pats or B's so maybe they'd have to substitute programming when games are on (for the time being)

CBS owns 4 stations in Hartford--might one of them do it? WTIC, WTIC-FM, WZMX-FM, WRCH-FM
That's it for New England other than the Boston cluster of course

Now where else--Hartford/Springfield area? Somewhere in VT or NH? Portland ME? RI? Medium sized AMs, or half decent FMs? Would we see a Sports Hub Radio Network?
 
i hope they do that one day if they keep improving they just might. now i know how hd radio is received on this board, but i have one and in Hartford there on wtic hd3, Hartford Waterbury!! so theres at least one simulcast!!
 
WOGL in Philadelphia has a similar channel, "I Love The 70's," which runs on that station's HD2 channel...

Meanwhile, I've been warming up to KLUV/Dallas' HD2 channel lately - 50's and 60's "Oldies Radio"...

Of course, all of these will be pre-empted in November and December due to holiday hits...
 
“98.5 The Sports Hub” is “winning.” The FM sports talk radio station — which scored an interview with Charlie Sheen yesterday — whipped rival WEEI-AM (850) in the latest online MediaBiz poll. Sixty-two percent of nearly 900 voters said they tune into the Sports Hub while 38 percent favor WEEI. Go to bostonherald.com for this week’s poll: Which network evening newscast do you watch?
