Top Local Sports Radio Shows?

[2centsworth]

I'm mainly writing this to give attention to Paul Alexander's show in the afternoons. It's a darn good local show. He had great takes on Russ Bookbinder's retirement, had a great interview with one of George Hill's coaches, and just recently had Tommy Nobis on the show. Plus, unlike a lot of local sports talk host, Paul has a grasp of the English Language.

My top three shows are as follows:

1. Taylor's afternoon show. The guy has grown on me because he knows his stuff, but he also lands the best interviews. Listen most days.

2. Paul Alexander's show. I can talk Texas highschool, college, and pro football all day. Mix in a little Spurs and San Antonio Sports and I'm good. Listen most days.

3. Sports Grind. They are different, cool, and have some knowledge. Listen occassionaly.

I like Duehl personally, but his show is not my style. To me Duehl has way too much caffine in him, yells too much, and doesn't seem to talk sports all that much. If I had some advice for Duehl it woud be to play every fantasy sport available. Play fantasy baseball, football, basketball, golf, nascar, etc...

I love Coach's show. I listen to it and really hate when it ends and its time for Tirico......I like Duel's show too on ESPN. Those are really the only two shows locally that I listen to regularly.
Oh and the Thompson's are ok to listen to at times.

I honeslty haven't tuned into the Ticket since I came back to Texas here recently, I do know that they have Dan Patrick on there in the mornings but I don't care for him and I definitely would rather entertain myself with a raging case of hemmoroids than listen to Jim Rome, so thats pretty much why I don't listen to the Ticket. I liked that we have a ESPN Station here now.

1. Track Smack With Dawn Murphy, Saturday mornings 8-10, ESPN 1250 The Zone

2. Dawn, Chris, and Jason

3. The Thompson Brothers

4. The Garden Show with Bob Webster, 550 KTSA (No it's not sports, but it's infinitely more interesting than anything on Brand X or Brand Y. )

1. Thompson Brothers - no matter if it is sports or regular talk, I really enjoy their show and laugh half the time.

2. Paul Alexander - very knowledgable, but comes off a bit arrogant at times.

3. Sports Grind - Black guys on the Ticket? Naaaahhh.....


Duel - I agree that not enough sports talk is actually talked about. I do love his regular talk show on KTSA previously.

Sorry, I just don't listen to The Ticket anymore ouside of the Sports Grind. I hate Mike Taylor, and will always hate Taylor for the first couple of days of his show. "I'm a Mavs fan but I got to pay the mortgage......so Go Spurs Go!!!" Grow some balls and stand up for your teams. Don't kiss my ass just to get my attention. And why the Ticket would hire someone from Dallas to do Sports Talk San Antonio is ridiculouos.

Yeah I agree with you on the Ticket if thats where its at now. Its just not that good of a lineup. Dan Patrick and Rome early on really make for unlistenable radio and the afternoons are not as good as ESPN 1250.

I can't believe for once I'll say that I like the local guys over the National stuff, but I do on 1250.

the guy rubbed me wrong too, but it's obvious he knows his sports. Plus, it's sort of refreshing not to get homer opinions.

I'm pulling for you. The fantasy suggestion was to increase your knowledge of sports, but not an idea for the show. Anyways, from the responses it sounds like you're doing well.

Thompsons
Duel
Coach A.

Everything else is .

I beg to differ...

Actually, it will just be called

The Morning Drive presented by Miller Lite.

I haven't heard back from Neopell yet.

[tonylongoriafan]

who cares, they all suck in the middle of the summer. just bring back the topic wheel already...i don't care who does

(best topic wheel ever, 2003 western conf finals. question: real reason tony parker got sick against dallas and couldn't play...answer: ate a little mexican last night)

[AlamoSpursFan]

And hands down the best sports radio show out there is the Thompsons Brothers.
End of Story.

Not possible.

Now if their show was called "Dawn Murphy with the Thompson Brothers", that would be a correct statement.

[Taco]

1. "Get Off My Elevator!" with Jay Howard

is this where he speaks just to hear himself talk?

[Taco]

Everything else is .

you never heard the Sports Grind?

those guys are pretty good

I REALLY like the Sports Grind. It's almost a treat when I turn the radio on and hear them.

1. Duel
2. Sports Grind
3. Coach A

The Thompson Brothers have their days. Some days they are on their . Other days, I find myself wondering what Mike Taylor is talking about. Which is sad because that is by far the worst show ever. I'm kind of suprised he didn't talk about the Dallas Stars or FC Dallas while the Spurs were in the playoffs.

[CharlieMac]

And as much as Chris hated it, along with everyone else, I missed Duel and Booms. I remember going to SAC and sitting in the truck to just listen to Chris try to not lose it on air.

[Taco]

Chris and Jason, had a great show in honor of Dan Cook!!!

Great show. I caught that there was a youtube clip up of Dan's last show and rewatched that and got great memories of the good ol' days.

Talk radio seems to do well until the host's ego takes over and then it goes to .
