Let's look at what has happened in little over a year. Two different individuals have taken over the Extravaganza with no success. Even in his old hometown, Ashwood's replacement Extravaganza is only on the air for one hour each day. FSR force feeds the listeners, at least the ones on XM a repeat of the morning show while Rome is on. Rome used to be entertaining before the 'parrots', I mean clones started calling in to worship at the feet of their hero. The Drive has had a couple of different people for Myers to work with. Craig Shemon is a decent host, but James Washington comes from the Bryan Cox School of Speech. JT is good if you like screaming and having listeners get cut off. Jorge Sedanco is an adequate host, but the Karen Kay laughter needs to go. The only time I listen to FSR is when I'm away from my XM radio. No sports network is perfect 24/7, but FSR seems to have cornered the market on mediocrity. In San Antonio, the ratings for the local sports station have actually increased since two local shows have replaced two FSR shows.
