They have both resigned from 93.9. I enjoyed listening to it. Will they turn up on 790? I've heard that there are some unhealthy dynamics going on amongst the local radio stations, the people that run them, and sports administration at UofL.

The administration at UL is nothing to brag on. While and Ramsey and Rutherford are entertaining, at times the show rivals Matt Jones in arrogance.They have both resigned from 93.9.

If true, it may have something to do with the lawsuit by the alleged UK mole who helped break the "HO" story.They have both resigned from 93.9. I enjoyed listening to it. Will they turn up on 790?

Love John Ramsey. I didn't really care for the other guy. He seemed very arrogant. I always pictured him sipping a cup of tea with one pinky out while talking.They have both resigned from 93.9.

Seriously though, what the hell will we listen to now ? No way in hell would I listen to the other two, washed up, brain dead idiots on 790. There has to be another show to fill that drive home from work.They have both resigned from 93.9. I enjoyed listening to it. Will they turn up on 790?

Yelp i pretty much listen to him. Theirs another show that's on Wed nites 93.9 @ 630-8 U of L centric topics Scotty D has a show on Thurs nites 93.9 also. Yell i think that lawsuit crap mightve been the culprit .Doubt they go to bed with 790 their was some issues with them guys and RR also.Jason Anderson is on 680. He is not a UofL homer, but is fair and highly knowledgeable of sports. He is probably the most true sportsman on local radio.
I stopped listening to 790 even before RR started 790 was kissing UK butt a little too much for my liking.790 is a bunch of juvenile attempt at humor mixed with sports. Toss in uk topics and you have pure garbage.
It's like listening to two teenagers babble back and forth.I stopped listening to 790 even before RR started 790 was kissing UK butt a little too much for my liking.
I am not sure what the true story is, but these guys did not resign without having a plan to show up elsewhere.
Until Monday at 3 I'm not going to believe it. It could be a great April Fools joke. Doesn't make sense to me. Their topic Friday was April Fools jokes.
790 has the exclusive rights to U of L . So i guess it's alot of politics being played out behind the scenes with 790 and espn 93.9It's not an April Fools joke.
Just a curious question for discussion - are you comfortable if the sports administration at UofL is involved in the workings of local radio? Should there be journalistic separation or should certain radio stations bwe intertwined with the university?
I don't really have a problem with U of L's undue influence because I know where that's headed. That is, a jackwagon like Maddie Bangs is not gonna start hosting a U of L program. There's probably no one or no platform that Jurich could pick that would alienate me....Just a curious question for discussion - are you comfortable if the sports administration at UofL is involved in the workings of local radio?

Does it mean I'm getting pro-U of L info and discussion while listening? Sure. But I'm not listening for opposing POVs or info about other programs.
And I listen to 80% of my stuff by podcast, so it doesn't matter too much to me who is on the radio and at what time of day. Good luck to R&R if this is indeed true...
Charlie, you're in the news business so that matters. Me, I can handle being a little behind the curve. (Which is where I am in life anyway!!)Is that convenient at all ... the podcasts? I would miss the real time aspect.
That's why his name is Knucklehead !
And they are probably limited by contractural obligations from discussing their future plans, if any. Plus I cannot imagine them leaving a "popular" spot without having somewhere else to go. We'll know something sooner rather than later.
GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!
I liked that R&R was an unabashed Card show. They listened to reasonable Cat fans, but trapdoored the Kayuts. The FM broadcast is better than the AM 680 which has a weak signal. Anderson has a good show but I get tired of his quizzes.Jason Anderson is on 680. He is not a UofL homer, but is fair and highly knowledgeable of sports.

I get a one-cent-per-minute message when I try that. Anyone else? I think I can afford it, but it's irritating...Listen to 680 on the phone doesn't use data.
I use it for both 93.9 and 680 and never got that message. I'm AT&T maybe it's your courier hmmm(605)477-9680I get a one-cent-per-minute message when I try that. Anyone else? I think I can afford it, but it's irritating...
Excellent question. As I understood 93.9 is a joint venture between ESPN and UL. So I would expect it to be influenced by UL. So in that context no I don't mind as so many other stations in this area have a UK slant or equal time. Unfortunately theses days all media seem to have an agenda. Do I like that no, but it's the way it is, so UL needs one carrying our banner.Until Monday at 3 I'm not going to believe it. It could be a great April Fools joke. Doesn't make sense to me.

If this is true, could it be affected by U of L's budget freeze? They are cutting a lot of spending right now and I wouldn't be surprised if this was the result of budgeting issues. Not sure what UL would be obligated to do in a joint venture like this but I am curious.Excellent question. As I understood 93.9 is a joint venture between ESPN and UL.

Budget cuts. Yep with the UL issues and ESPN having their own financial issues that's a real possibility.If this is true, could it be affected by U of L's budget freeze?

I highly doubt that U of L budget issues are affecting ESPN radio Louisville. Reason why i used to work for a radio station in sales and marketing and believe me ESPN, has big dollar advertisers which fuel it's local programming and budgets. Bottom line it ain't about money.issues . From what i'm hearing in my work world it's more of a quality of life issue with both. Mike is the editor of a very lucrative sports site and we all know about John and his other ventures.Budget cuts.

Do you guys who were long time listeners feel that it is total bull sh$t that you get no explanation. You tune in every day and listen and they just up and leave and don't tell you anything ? The more I think about it the more I feel that it is a very shallow thing for them to do. I would have expected better from John Ramsey.
On another site Rutherford alluded to being over committed which was effecting his personal life. Just read that earlier. I can see that. It is along the lines of what Fury was hearing
