I did hear that Foote was being let go. I'd be shocked if 103.7 doesn't scoop up Foote right away. He's got a huge base that's been listening to and reading his stories for years.



Used to love listening to Foote and Big Dave on the radio back in the day.

Ironic that Will Wade is still working but Jay was let go. He can spend his time plAying “Little Willy Willy” over and over. Karma Bitch.

Someone needs to check on that douche nozzle fricknut mini me of his....Scott Prather.

The other guys just mimic the national broadcasters. They are NBA and NFL puppets more than anything. Not a original story among any of those guys. They are just repeating. The only reason I listen to 1420 is for the local sports news.
Jay, Steve P. and Foote really give the inside scoop on those.

Jay is a complete and utter a-hole, elitist, and puppet for administration. I'll never forget how much of a frickstick he was when Farmer was fricking up the baseball renovations. Literally went on air every day and lied to people to protect his little drinking buddy.


You can thank Dave Schultz for calling out Farmer on that bs and getting Farmer run out of town. Walker was simply a mouthpiece for Farmer during that whole fiasco. During that time, Walker alienated a ton of the local audience by demeaning anyone who would question Farmer.

Dave definitely took one for the team on that one. He ultimately got pushed out of 103.7 around a year ago.

Maybe they can fill his time slot with simulcast of Matt Moscona. Kidding of course, but the reaction to the amount of LSU sports talk would be pretty great.

For those that complain about the quality of 104.5 in BR, they clearly haven’t had
To suffer through 1420! 104.5 in BR on a whole different level than 1420 - from guests to production quality. Be thankful.

Pretty much the same. I actually don’t mind Golic and Wingo but otherwise I hate the National shows, I want to hear the local guys. lol probably be switching over to another station if they go to more national programming. Of course right now it’s all kind of weird.
