Never fret Bigzax, I'm sure he'll still toss your salad!
It was pretty cool to hear them get the Spurs' #1 Stunna on the show last night.
Never fret Bigzax, I'm sure he'll still toss your salad!
... with hotwing sauce...Never fret Bigzax, I'm sure he'll still toss your salad!
Mouse - you know I love you man.... but yesterday WAS week. A hangup? Mention me on the air and I will forgive you.
I only hung up the phone out of fear I may say something to offend Dawn or bring the FCC down on Duel's show. One thing I won't settle for is Duel saying I went to the Mavs when they started winning. That is not true I went to the Mavs when they were sucking.
as you can see by the date of this topic.
I had to get as far away from flaky bandwagon back stabbing wannabe Spur fans like Dawn who love a player one day and curse him the next.
So out of respect for Mr.Duel I will not bring down the show any further with my 4th class out dated re-fried calls. I will visit the site once it is running.
And I wish Jason,Duel and Dawn the best. And the call screener /producer the man rocks!
I'm not the type of person to ever say..."I told you so".Not the San Antonio local sports show with Jason And Chris! The show Rocks! But the ESPN network and who ever has their head up their ass!
How can you not know your going to have a show In San Antonio? And if you did know? why would you be so unprepared?
Why would you not tell San Antonio ahead of time? Bill boards! TV radio etc.....
That is not why I am pissed! Chris Duel said on the radio today they won't have a website until April! what kind of is that? it takes maybe 6 hours to make a website!
I am getting tired of having to promote something that wants no part of my passion. I have tossed my last salad...........
If ESPN and Duel want to drag their ass then go ahead , but I will not be part of it anymore,.......................and that you can take to the bank.
But.....I told you so.
Peter Burns is Program Director material!
I love how because I have said and always said that Avery Johnson did not need his jersey retired, that makes me a BANDWAGON fan. Nothing against Avery, I just did not get it. I always thought BANDWAGON was jumping ship when your team sucked and moving to the next great thing...funny, that sounds kinda familiar to me for some reason.
I love Mouse because he will one day put you on a throne and kiss your ass, and the next kick the legs right out from under you so you come crashing down. I just found it funny I was being called a bandwagon fan by someone who jumped ship and banwagon fan'd it to the MAVS.. Luv ya Mouse!!! Keep the Track Smack logos coming!!!
Peter,I'm not the type of person to ever say..."I told you so".
But.....I told you so.
Keep on predicting and keep on cackling.
One week in, the city abuzz, the blessing of Mouse...
I think we have momentum.
Someone told me your skinny little carpetbagger is even blogging about us and orchestrating fake phone calls to slam us.
Can you say FEAR?
Keep on underestimating us.
Keep on blogging about us. Just spell our name right.
We're here and we're from here, get used to it.
Game On.
Chris
I haven't heard Taylor mention your name or your station once. The fake phone calls I did hear, but only people who are very familiar with you and your life story would know he was talking about you. Outside of people who read this board, spursreport or Jakle's column, no one knows your show exists, which is what Peter's whole point is.
SpursHonkey,
I'll allow your point (although I disagree with it).
Stay tuned. Everyone will know our show exists.
Remember your take and write back in a few months.
Thank you for sharing.
Nice post count, by the way. Hmmmmm.
Chris
Look, you already know I work in the ClearChannel building, and if you paid attention to the thread in which that was established, you would have read that I joined recently because people I work with IN the building were mentioning SpursTalk. I came on and saw Peter was a member and set up an account of my own.
If calling out my post count proves a point, I fail to see it.
On a completely unrelated note, I WILL concede you the point about having momentum. You most definately do. , you landed a Spurs player less than 2 weeks after launching...it pissed some people off around here because it took them forever to get players.
SpurHonkey,
Now I remember who you are.
I have a hard time remembering the true iden ies of everyone.
I looked at the post count and saw 10 and I figured you were a troll. I was wrong. Anyone who has less posts than me in this forum is suspect in my book.
But to suggest that only SpursTalk, SpursReport and Jeanne Jakle readers have heard of our show doesn't ring true to me.
First of all, even if you were 100% accurate, I would be thrilled. SpursTalk and Jeanne Jakle readers make up a big segment of the radio listening audience in San Antonio. Admittedly, many of the SpursReport people seem to dislike me for whatever they think I might have done to diss them in 2002. Whatever. Radio people know that having people hate you is a huge asset - just ask Rush Limbaugh or Howard Stern.
I do know I spent the past two months on KTSA promoting ESPN 1250 in Afternoon Drive and JACK-FM with its HUGE audience has been running 24/7 promos for weeks. I ran into a guy at CVS Pharmacy last night who said he listens and he heard about us on JACK-FM.
I accept, embrace and celebrate the underdog role.
It's fun.
I want to either WIN BIG or FAIL BIG. Anything in-between is boring. I've done both: with Charlie Parker we went to #1 25-54 in the market and months later with Chuck Booms we crashed and burned.
It doesn't matter to me, really.
But I do have a good feeling about this. Jason, Dawn and I have been given a platform to do our thing.
I have consciously and overtly solicited the ideas of SPORTS FANS in SpursTalk.com because I consider THEM our CORE AUDIENCE.
I consider MOUSE the quintessential RADIO CALLER. When I was back at WOAI, there were people there who wanted to block his calls. I thought they were insane (and I was right). Mouse is Radio Gold. I stand by that and I will sink or swim with that.
I love that after one week, the dude from North Texas on Ticket 760 is blogging about us and orchestrating fake calls. It's a kick.
We're in his head in one week.
As a Clear Channel insider, you have to admit that.
We're having fun and I think that shines through on our broadcasts.
If sports fans in San Antonio support us, I thank them and if they don't, we'll go away and if that happens, I will tell you and Peter Burns you were right.
But you know something, I don't think you are.
Let's see what happens.

Well, since I am "somewhat" famous on the internet...I will be promoting the ESPN 1250 channel and especially promoting the D.D. and J crew! I know people all over this city. The movement has begun!
*
D.D. and J = Duel, Dawn and Jason
Don't confuse giving props when they are deserved kissing ass.
Speaking of kissing ass let's see how you treat Avery if he is ever on your show. I would love to here you tell him he needs to take his jersey off the rafters.
Don't confuse honest feedback when you deserve it as a bad thing.and the next kick the legs right out from under you
Chris duel knows a true friend sometimes will tell you those jeans make your ass look big.
The little general deserves more than his jersey retired they should name a school after him.

God Bless You, RashoFan!!!
One listener at a time.
Thank you for spreading the word.
Keep in touch and let us know how we can make the show better.
We're with you, we're from here.
Chris
Fake phone calls are so weak. I remember when people did that to Don and Walter back in the day with the whole Chad's Mom thing.
I never quite understood that, but I can see how it happens.
Now Chris, relax.
The only thing I said was just like the Ticket. It's hard to get Advertising Funds dedicated to any sports station. Especially when it's a part of a cluster with larger stations.
, I wish you guys did, because then, it would help our cause to get more marketing also!
Trust me. It's the same way with Mike Taylor. It's a very similar launch.
No billboards, TV...etc.
Personally, I check both shows out. And a lot of people will do that.
And the Underdog role is one that be feared, especially in the sports world....
Boise State Vs Oklahoma
NY Giants Vs New England
Appy St Vs Michigan
Sanity Vs Britany Spears
I mean, the guy who runs the biz side of the station is my old boss, who I am still close to.
So....Let's release the hounds.
What would be cool, is if down the road we could have a smack off between your listeners and ours......A turf war of sorts.
That could be epic......
I say more DAWN!
Hey Chris, Both on at the same time.....Nice!
This is like when you hear there's a fight going to happen in middle school and everyone crowds around......
Please let me make the ESPN topics from now on.
The only difference is the Ticket is that kid that has a knife in his pocket.
Peter,
We agree on virtually everything:
Fake phone calls ARE weak. Your boy is doing them. I have never done them and never will.
Relax. I am oh, so relaxed. Want me to chant my mantra?
While a smack off between listeners is niiiiiiicccceeee, how about a smack off between us (or just me) and the boy from North Texas who needs fake phone calls?
Let's simulcast it!
Let me ask him about THE SPURS and the Hemisfair Arena and the 1999, 2003, 2005 and 2007 Championships.
Mano a Mano
(or Manu a Manu!)
Ask him if he is up for it.
Enough fake calls on Ticket 760 and his passive agressive blogging about us.
Ask him if he will Man Up.
I have nothing against the guy. I wish him the best. But to take shots at us on his blog after less than a week and for him to set up fake phone calls to slam us are borderline pathetic.
I'd LOVE to match wits (and San Antonio Sports knowledge) with him.
Let's do it, Peter!
Let's make San Antonio RADIO HISTORY!!!
Screw the usual.
Screw the ordinary.
Screw the rules.
Let's ROCK and HAVE FUN!!!
What do you think?
Anywhere, anytime, my brutha.
Love ya,
Chris

Chris,
I checked out his blog, and didn't see anything about ESPN.....Got a link?
I'm not denying that it wasn't done, just didn't see it on our site.
Of course, I'm tired as right now, so I might have missed it.
You and I know that as good as it would be, it would be a least a year before we could do something like that.
I mean, it's the same reason why WOAI would never badmouth KTSA on air.
Why give the little guy any extra pub?
Peter,
Dig, if you will, the picture...
I kinda like it.
You?
