What happened to Homer??

Looks like the bottom fell out.A steady
decline in listeners over the last few
books is not a good thing! It must be more
than the Reds stink and no Bengals.
With the changes over at 'MOH (ESPN programming)
and their billboards going up all over the
place, I'd be nervous!

Go to R&R and see for yourself.  Valleys in the Spring; Peaks in the Fall.  Bengals always cranks them up to almost a 2.0 share each Bengals season.

I wouldn't worry too much about WMOH, but if it can pull a 0.5 - which it did recently - that can hurt when samples are small.

Sports stations can weather low ratings by selling packages like NFL/MLB games of the week, brokered shows like the Turfway Park show on Saturdays, and short features like "Bearcat Preview". They can also cut expenses when they run the network talk shows nights and weekends.

Two reasons the station will never be a major factor:

1. There's just not that much to talk about on a regular basis...Reds, Bengals, Bearcats, Musketeers...that's it!

2. The hosts really aren't that great.
   
   The Angry Guys are a tired act. Tom Gamble just yells and bitches, and both
   of them won't let the other finish a sentence. Skinner might be better off
   as a solo host.

   Jeff Piecoro does a straight show with no shtick. Nothing wrong with
   that, but it doesn't compel listeners to tune in.

   Lance McAllister is just a stats geek, and tries to cram in too many topics,
   many of which no one cares about. One example: a weekly chat with the Wright
   State basketball coach...WOW!

   Fill-in host Greg Waddell talks a mile a minute, and seems to lose his    
   thoughts a lot.

   At least they got rid of that no-talent hack Wildman Walker.

Skinner as a solo host?  HA HA HA!!!  That is a good one.  All he can do is talk about his daughters golf game.
