Where's Duemig?

UCFKNIGHT92 said:
The GM, from 102.5, should hire Steve Duemig. I would dump the Billy Madison and Artie Lange shows, and move Duemig into the 10am-3pm slot. I would move Drew Garabo into the 10pm-1am slot. If Garabo wouldn't accept his new shift, I would fire him too.
Hiring Duemig would hurt both 98.7 and 620. We all know the Billy Madison show is nothing but segments from his San Antonio, TX, morning show, and I don't believe many people in Tampa care about Artie Lange. WHPT is covering the entire Nascar Cup Series this season so adding Duemig and his hockey talk may not be a bad idea.

Duemig could care less about NASCAR, and wouldn't know anything about stock car racing if he were run over by one. 102.5 also skews about 20 years below his demo.

I don't know who Steve Dumig is because I loathe sports talk stations. But I do agree with you about Billy Madison and Artie Lange. Those shows suck on ice, for real.
 
Duemig is Back

On his Facebook page Steve said he is back and ready to go today. Duemig is the dean of local sports talk. So much is happening with our local teams and it will be great to hear Steve's views as he doesn't candy coat much. Agree or disagree Duemig always brings something to the table.
 
Ok..now let's all bookmark this thread, so that in three or four years from now when CC and Steve opt to go all WWE on us to build up publicity for him and the station, we can all chuckle so you folks don't fall for this crap again, ok?

No, this is how CC negotiates. They wait until the last minute and it's "sign this now or you're off the air".

They have had hosts in other markets quit for a month until they put a deal together... It's not a stunt, it's just a poorly run business.
