Shhh just let the wackos think their small gain is because they are better. It will be more fun that way.

You are fighting against a force of nature at this point.

You could no more stop the winds of change blowing through the sports radio landscape than you could empty an ocean with a spoon.

We are coming.

Oh, you kids!

You couldn't get people to listen to Carm & Jurko, and Silvaddle will be the same. Mind you, I'm not a B&B maven so much as I know your track record. (Really, B&B have suffered greatly since their move from mid-days)

The revolution that may (or may not, and I'm betting "not") be won't be sown by your hands. Period. End of story.

(The same guys who clamored for Drinky in the morning, Larry anywhere, Goff to replace Candyman... Each campaign a success. Lol.)

You're being quite silly, RFDC. All we said is that ESPN is on the rise. The ratings posted so far are OVERALL. You will see that the afternoon drive gap will be closer than the overall ratings. You will look very foolish soon when Silvaddle climbs ahead of B&B in the ratings. If just a matter of when, not if.

_________________

I don't understand why anyone cares about the ratings, unless it threatens a show's very existence. It's like boasting about how many records Justin Bieber sold vs John Mayer. I like John Mayer's music, so I listen to it and purchase it. If I don't care for another artist's work, (Bieber for example)I dont care how many records he/she sells to others, I'm not buying it. I think Silvy and waddle have a good show. I think Silvy is the 2nd best sports-talk driver in the city after Danny Mac. Now that the shows do not oppose one another I listen to them a lot more. In time I think they will pass B&B, but whether they do or not isn't at all important to me.

T Peeps, the numbers you quoted were from 6 a.m. to midnight -- not afternoons. That's my one and only point. You credited those changing numbers to the switch in the afternoon. Maybe Carm and Jurko picked up the numbers on Mac and Spiegs. The FACT remains we don't know about the afternoon ratings, so it's quite hasty to state a movement has already begun.

I guess The Score shares your concern, Peeps. Mac and Spiegs are on right now. Boy that was quick.

"Another excellent show.

And We are not alone.

In the May PPM ratings, the Score dropped 0.1 and ESPN Radio rose 0.4.

It has begun."

Here's the speculation I speak of.

I never claimed them to be afternoon numbers Mojito.

I only spoke of the increase of ESPN and the decrease of the Score.

I was the leader of the Silvy and Carmen show upon my arrival much to the dismay of most. I believe Silvy is one of the best. With all that said....

listen to this show and be a man, hogan.

Thanks to DannyB for finding these numbers. Silvaddle is getting closer and closer to overtaking B&B

I agreed to be an Arbitron radio rater for a period coming up soon, so the Silvaddle wave will rise even higher!!

This show officially had higher ratings than B&B in April. The first of many months in which they will win over B&B.


Congrats to Silvaddle!

I caught a few minutes of Waddle was hosting (with a partner whose name I do not remember) for Mike and Mike today. He's hosting in his normal slot today. I can't imagine Mac or Spiegel doing that.

I think that was Dari Nowkhah. I listened on the way into work, but turned them off after five more minutes of Sterling talk maxed me out. I don't imagine Tommy feels he can turn down the chance for national exposure- four weddings and two more college educations to pay for...

I know he and Silvy play the "old Bear is oblivious" all the time, but I wonder how much of his personality that rubs so many of our fellow posters the wrong way is really the accumulation of hits he took

adnan virk. just another clone. even has a clonish name. sounds like a star trek villain.

nobody's brain was as rattled as Buffone's and he finds a way to be entertaining. no excuse for Waddle sucking so bad.

I'll just go ahead and declare that we'll never agree on this, since a nanosecond of Doug Buffone is way too much for me. Maybe my Waddlelust goes back to my days tethered to WGN, maybe I'm just touched in the head and don't recognize it. I think you're right to have your opinion, I just don't agree with it.

How can you say that? Almost since Silvaddle has been moved to afternoons their ratings have been going up and B&B's have been going down. Its a trend that is likely to continue until one of these shows (B&B) is ovah.
