WAIS Football Show

[93Bulldog]

More football! ------ Less Tailgate updates and Trivia....

I immagine any radio show needs sponsers to stay on the air - therefor a host must promote events/its sponsers/etc...etc... as much as possible ... I totally understand that.

I also don't think it would hurt if the show had another party (perhaps in the backround) that could feed the host all the football information he needs throughout the show ... If you watch certain radio shows on ESPN or listen to them on the radio: the hosts have 3 or 4 guys in the backround sitting in front of computers feeding them information/answering e-mails - via the internet ... If Rusty had a tool like that to draw upon; I think a lot more 'football stuff' would make its way to ther air.

nobody does a better job then the guru did god bless you guru... A great man

Let's reprase that for accuracy:

"Nobody does a better job than the guru did in butchering the English language and talking incomprehensibly on the radio"

Nothing beats listening to a guy talk like he's got a mouth full of marbles (or chaw for that matter) on the radio at 10 O'clock at night....... Oh yea........

Get it all out lil dan cmon get it all out feel better

I'll do it. Ill pump scores at him like food at a Fed Hock tailgate!

Hay Grad I might talk to Joe, Jim or Sharron and I might help you if you turn down the heat on me, just kidding! I love pushing everyone's buttons. I will give you credit you did do a good job boardcasting the games!

I feel so good right now, I can't stand myself

Actually, from a pop culture standpoint, people like the Guru are quite memorable, and that is why people love them. His constant faux pas were actually quite amusing, and I did listen just about every Friday night, just to hear the inevitable train wreck

Let's face it, Guru was not very good, but, he gave it a shot. I enjoyed Logan Grad when he did the sports there at WAIS, and I enjoyed his football show on Friday nights.

Rusty's show is what it is. He's a school teacher from Trimble. He could just as easily stay home with his family and not do the show, or just go to Trimble's games and leave at that. Take the show for what it is, and appreciate that there is a show at all.

Anybody who knows me knows that I came from a football crazy town, and there was no radio show about HS football (of course, that was back in the leather helmet days, LOL!).

Rusty, You do a good job! Now you know how it feels to be crucify!

[NY BUCKS]

OR joe could just stop the show all together..And everybody loses...

Ummm LOL, Im pretty sure I dont need you to talk to anyone for me. And you seem to bring the heat on yourself without my help, so youre on your own with that one. And Thanks for the compliment, I was very proud to be able to broadcast the games and the work we all did for those 2 seasons. (Tim, Myself and the Guru). It took on a life of its own for sure. Rusty does a great job with his show and again, I agree with NYBUX, we could all have nothing at all to listen to worse case scenario.

Amen, LG.

Hang up on the DRUNKS CALLING IN...

[NYBuckeye96]

I think the show is ok the times I've been able to tune in. If I could make a suggestion though - change the theme song that plays when the show starts. That song is kind of annoying and a little too hillbilly sounding - even for southeastern Ohio. The times I've tuned in, I always tuned out while that song plays. It should have a modern feel to it, like a Gridiron Glory.

The song and the drunks are what makes the show good, except for the lady who calls in every week that said one time that Athens Alexander and Nelsonville York are the 3 best teams in the state. Rusty had no idea what to say to her when she said that.

That would have been hillarious to hear! Does that one lady who can't pronounce the letter "r" still call in that used to call the Guru? Twimble! That is my all-time favorite caller!


I don't know about the song. I would take the Guru's mispronounciations any day over that song. It gets under my skin. The drunks calling in are funny though! I don't get to listen in much and when I do, it's just for a short time.
