Makes sense. The Score was getting crowded and it's more brokered programming for the failing WLS. But has U of I really been on the Score for over a decade? I thought it was much less; it wasn't that long ago they had NIU stuff instead.

Sometimes my radio does this weird thing where the volume drops out by like 80% but then comes back. So I'll think my radio is off and then all of a sudden I'm live from the Buffalo Wild Wings in Savoy and some guy is trying to talk to Lovie Smith. And that's how I end up listening to Illini content on the Score.

Unrelated, kinda, maybe?...

Who is Zach Zaidman's color guy on the Score's radio call of DePaul Basketball? He sounds like Winnie the Pooh.

Please don't dox me, Tommy.

Between those, Country Financial ads and the odd sound of the broadcasts I always think of the early eighties when I hear the games.

The Score's ratings for nights will take a hit without the Lovie Smith and Brad Underwood Shows.

Is it possible to have a negative amount of people listening?

When I’d hop in a tractor and hear a seed corn or case commercial i was often startled. Kinda chuckled a bit on target audience or not but then I figured I’m 120 miles away and getting radio signal so the neighbors who are fans are the target.

That Learfield/IMG conglomerate sounds like nice work if you can get it, just profiting off all these college sports rights while the players earn nothing.

I always find them kinda cool. But emblematic of the athletic department's core problem.

I can pick up WMT for Iowa games and you should hear some of those commercials.

I can probably get Hawkeye games if I went looking. Imaging Iowa state games would be something to hear too.
