OOPS - That should have been me. Â Apparently I edited Coyotes post yesterday and not quoted it...

That's what I was thinking when they said it. Â It wouldn't surprise me if CBS was pushing hard for all the Rome Affiliates to also go with CBS.

Dropped the Chiefs? Â They are still listed for the 2013 season as an Affiliate On the Chiefs Radio Network web site.

He's baaaaaaaaaack!
Omaha’s sports radio leader “1620 The Zone” (KOZN-AM) will debut another locally-grown sports/talk program with the launch of “The Nick Bahe Show” featuring former Creighton University Bluejay basketball standout Nick Bahe behind the microphone. Bahe joins what has become an entirely live and local lineup as his show will air weekdays from 11am-2pm, in the middle of two of the... area’s top-rated sports programs with men.
“We really believe in the importance of providing Omaha listeners with comprehensive local programming content that is dedicated to our area’s most relevant sports franchises and the people making headlines. Having Nick return to The Zone provides our listeners with an entirely live and local programming lineup airing at the height of the weekday workday,” said Andy Ruback, 1620 The Zone General Manager.
With its debut on August 5th, “The Nick Bahe Show” will be live during weekday middays, strategically placed between two of the station’s top rated local programs “Sharp & Benning in the Morning” from 7am-11am and “Unsportsmanlike Conduct” hosted by John Bishop and Mike’l Severe” airing Monday-Friday from 2pm-6pm.
Bahe, who played Division 1 Basketball at Creighton under Dana Altman and at Kansas under Bill Self, is a graduate of Southeast High School in Lincoln where he earned multiple athletic awards as the 2003 Gatorade Nebraska Player of the Year, was quarterback on the All-State Football Team, and was nominated to the McDonald’s All-America team. Although he was always a standout athlete, he said the opportunity to return to broadcasting is his true passion.

YOu think this new Nick Bahe show will be a one guy show or will there be an anoucment of a second person. Â One man sports talk is hard to do. Â At a Minimum there needs to be a good producre that has some on air time too. Â Guessing there will be a co host.

So where is the Jim Rome show going?
Edit: Never Mind, I see he is moving to 1180.

Was listing to 590 last night and they ran a promo saying that they were bringing the best basketball confernace to the air in Omaha and the Hawkeye Men's basketball coverage would be added to their linup this fall.
EDIT:
Wow, just looked at their web site for the first time in forever. Â there is NOTHING local on there. Â That whole operation must be on autopilot. Â The link to BLOGS had nothing on it and there was no local news or information that wasn't just a feed of a link from a national artical.

I love Nick Bahe, but they do need someone to balance out his craziness on the air. I can't wait for him to come back though, the new unsportsman like conduct is brutal.nebugeater wrote:YOu think this new Nick Bahe show will be a one guy show or will there be an anoucment of a second person.

That might as well try. Everything else they have tried has failed so wouldn't hold much hope for it working.

What's funny is that the person 590 has hired isn't even a full time host, he's more like a sidekick/producer of the PM drive show on KXNO (Perrault's former Des Moines station).cp jay 07 wrote:According to the D-Bag Matty P they have hired a afternoon host from Iowa who is a Iowa homer.

Edit: Â According to his Twitter account, he's been hired as a CO-host.
Service Master just left, their gadgets still showed quite a bit of mosture. They said we could turn the dehumidifers off for a bit, those are the heat producing things. Current humidity was in the house was 34%. Hoping this cold front is as strong as advertised.

I too get so sick of wall to wall skers during the fall and wall to wall Jays during the winter. Â It needs to stop. Â Though, I simply stopped listening. Â Sirius XM in drive time is decent. Â Certainly better than listening to blathering jock sniffers who sound like they quit taking their OCD meds about August and won't start again till April.
What did he have for lunch?

KXSP Adds 'The Drive'
All Access wrote:Journal Sports KXSP-A (AM 590 ESPN Omaha)/Omaha is adding a new local afternoon show, "The Drive," with former Clear Channel Sports KXNO-A/Des Moines host and producer Joe Quinn and Three Eagles Communications/Columbus, NE Sports Director Nick Handley. The new show will air 2-6p (CT) beginning Monday (8/5).
“Joe and Nick’s combined experience of covering sports in Nebraska and Iowa mirrors our huge AM 590 signal. AM 590 listeners will really enjoy these two young yet experienced broadcasters bringing their perspective to sports each afternoon.”
Way to screw up the first day on the new station...
Looks like I am going to be streaming Rome on another city's sports station today.
