*Official 1310 The Ticket Talk Thread*

I think it was just "Sports station of the year"... here were the nominees:

2007 nominees

Norm reported that it was "station of the year" not just sports. But then again he doesn't know what the he's talking about 75% of the time so maybe it was jus sports station of the year.

[u2sarajevo]

Yeah, it's just sports station. Very cool indeed...

Need some good local sports radio in S.A. still.

JubJub(backdoor Georgie)

I love the new "Captain Erection" nickname.

Actually I love all of his unwanted nicknames.

Broken Condom George
Brokeback George
Cannonball Dunham

and so on

The Ticket owns...

The glasses Greggo wore on Doocy last night were sweet

Norm - "I have...a....name...for....my...nuts. Dave & BUSTERS"

[Findog]

Speaking of Greggo, if you peruse the Unfair Park blog, it would appear that his unexplained and extended leave of absence is due to being back in rehab, and supposedly this time it's for something harder than pills. Also speculation in the blog comments that he's a friend of Dorothy and this explains part of his substance abuse issues.

Anyone going to ticketstock this year?

[maxpower]

The ticket compound is on this week...
great after hours webcam fun.

[pussyface]

...how is the hardline these days minus greg williams?
do they discuss his meltdown or is it off limits?

I always liked him on the show, but i remember this ing guy railing against people who smoked weed and stuff years ago. what a hypocrite he turned out to be.

[Tree hugger]

What about that one radio host who made all drink body solutions?

At first the show avoided talking about it due to "legal issues" but these days they throw Greggo under the bus every chance they get. It gets a little annoying because after the official announcement that he was gone, Rhyner made this big "we had a lot of great years and I'm very sad about this" speech. But he trashes Greggo pretty regulary these days.

[Spurminator]

It's a better show without him. More Corby and Danny.

[monosylab1k]

I'm okay with Corby, but less Danny is always a good thing. I don't think there's a radio personality on Earth that I hate more than Danny and his bag elitist music opinions, which magically have stretched to the movie realm.

More Grubes is always a good thing though.

wow. i find that surprising for some reason. what kind of stuff do they say about him?

[Evan]

Hey sports!

[mexicanjunior]

I used to work on the Rant with Gordon and Davey about 12 years ago, that was good times. Eventually, they realized I had a bag and their station manager (Bruce Gilbert) said anyone not actually on the payroll couldn't be in studio (I was volunteering), so I got canned. It was still a great time, I was in studio for about 3 months and was even there during the infamous Rocco meltdown on the Rant the weekend before he got the axe...

I also did alot of stuff for the Musers (poetry in the mornings) and had some stints on Big 's Wild Ass Circus...

Some of the poetry I read for George and Craig can be found here:

Craig is really a great guy, I remember he hooked me up with tickets to Spurs-Mavs back in the early 2000's, he is a good Spurs fan. I also made a tribute to his hit song "Points For Sex" back in 2002, that can be found here but be warned, it is NSFW:

I remember them talking about you.

ah good times

[monosylab1k]

Points For Sex is still the funniest Ticket song ever.

The show is surviving and I like that Corby is getting more exposure, I've thought he was funny since his days producing the Chris Arnold show and working on the rant with Gordon and Davey...

It's a real shame what happened to Greg, he was always very nice to me when I saw him at remotes and stuff. He was very honest and would usually tell me some inside stuff on the Cowboys and the station that people weren't usually privy too. He was a cool dude...

You know, I remember in the old sub-culture days, Danny (known as Danny in Lake Highlands) was really not as grumpy and angry as he is now. He was just a normal guy that liked the station and worked with Big (Little Teddy Champion in the old days) on some bits ( anic). I guess being the show producer changed him over the years, unless it is all schtick...

I think alot of it is just schtick for the radio (like the whole Dan McDowell "I'm just a lazy slacker pothead" persona). But it irritates me nonetheless.
