What's Happening to KABC?

I can't stand Leo Terrel, he's a avowed Communist Democrat yet says he's a independent, is he really so stupid that he thinks he's fooling anyone?

I think he is just interim like Joe Crummy, Gloria Allred or Mr. KFI/KABC at this point until they try another name or format.

If you're so inclined, you can listen to KFI or KNX in 25+ states after dark next time you take a road trip back east somewhere.

Baseball may have once been America's favorite pastime, but I am pretty sure that time has passed.
It's a different world with many new issues that I would rather hear hear discussed on the radio than a snail-paced ball game. However, I see nothing wrong with prime time given to major home games on sports stations.

Someone needs to explain to me why MLB continues to extend their season to the point where this year's game 7 of the World Series could conceivably take place sometime around NOVEMBER 10th!!!!!!!

Nuts!!!

I personally think baseball was made for radio just as the NFL is optimized for television. That said baseball
passed its time for talk radio stations in Los Angeles when KFI bought the Rush Limbaugh Show. Before then when KABC was the only game in town they could give Michael Jackson and others extended time off from Spring Training until whenever the Dodgers finished with the knowledge that folks listening to Talk had nowhere else to go and would come back when Michael Jackson came back on the air because of rain in Vero Beach.

Today even on all sports radio if you turn over weeks to spring training broadcast the other sports talk radio host will steal the audience who has a more broad interest than just baseball

I only listen to baseball if I need to get to sleep fast. I don't know anything more boring than listen to an announcer try to fill the time between a player batting and the next player batting or the moment when the player is actually active for 5 seconds of hitting the ball.
