I know about half of you out there think The Ticket is a waste good radio airwaves, but they are supposedly going to talk about the Greggo situation after this break. Just a heads up for the other half of you that do listen.

The circumstances that led to this are sad, but his exit does make the station slightly more tolerable to listen to.

That guy was so absent minded - they always made fun of him daily.

Not as much baseball talk is ALWAYS a good thing.

R.I.P. hardline. it was always slightly annoying but fun to listen to. without greggo, rhyner doesn't really work.

irritated anyway though with the whole thing. a few weeks ago when they first addressed the issue, rhyner had a quote along the lines of "we don't owe you [the listener] anything. we are only responsible for pleasing our bosses."

well f you too rhyner. actually you do owe us something since the only reason you are still around is because you have a good listener base.

I was referring to the plug they have been making all week about an announcement they were going to make at 11:10 this morning.

What was the situation? I know about rehab - but not what went on recently.
