I was over at SR610's website listening to the Philly announcer's call of Biggio's home run the other night, and was astonished to see a picture of freaking Billy Wagner on their main logo/header. Not sure if that is him? Well, it is... you can see him wearing that same glove in this picture. And we all know that the only other left-hander we have that would ever be worthy of being on the main page of our biggest Sports Radio station is Andy Pettitte, and luck would have it that Andy also wears a TPX glove... but not the same model as Billy Wagner. Now, some might chalk this up to a simple mistake or maybe just a lack of updates and it has been there for a while... but if you look closer they have Vince Young on their as well, and Wagner has been gone for nearly two years now. Come on SR610! Just to add some more salt to the wounds... that is some damned lousy photoshopping I mean the fade to white doesn't even fade all the way. Also is that Ryan Bowen and Tony freaking Banks representing the Rockets and Texans? Wow... and who the hell is the number 21 sweatband under Billy, and why the heck is he even in the picture? What a GLORIOUS elbow! Come on SR610, you can do better then that. A useless rant I know... but it needed to be said, lol.
And that golfer...isn't thatan inverted shot of Phil Mickelson??? What the hell??? He has NOTHING to do with Houston!
I think it's easy to see what I meant. I left the n out of alumnus, even though it should have said alumni.
lol...I kind of thought that the talking heads of 610 probably should be up there, but the header isn't as offensive as some of you are making it out to be. OMG Billy Wagner is on the web site!!!! Burn down 610!!!! Call the FCC!!!!!
How perfect.. I was listening to 610 on my way to work this morning (790 was running a commercial at the time) and the guy on air was reading posts from hornfans.com on the air. Sports Radio 610: Houston.. Austin.. It's all the same to us!
Yeah, it's weird to be discussing the Longhorns when they're about to play the #4 team in the nation in the most highly anticipated college football game this year. We get it, you don't like the Longhorns.
i don't understand why you would be confused. seriously. this is the largest city in the state of Texas...talking about the University of Texas...who plays perhaps the biggest college football game we've seen from any school in Texas for a decade or more. #2 vs. #4 in the country..in week 2. and it's a Texas team. and the game will be aired on this station. again...i don't see why anyone would be surprised or upset about that.
Do you realize how often websites get updated? When you make a banner like that, you probably don't change it but once every couple of years, especially when you are a radio station that has more on its mind then that. Should it be changed? Yeah, probably. But, it isn't like snapping your fingers. I think we're all spoiled by Clutch Fans anyway.
Maybe, but that wasn't as anticipated. UT needed a miracle letdown by three teams (I think) before that game to even have a shot at the national championship game. We didn't know until minutes before the start of the game that it would have that kind of implication. Not to mention, Miami most likely would've smoked us that year. I would rank this one a little higher due to the rankings of both teams and the fact that they're two storied programs meeting for the first time ever.
The problem with that argument is that SR610 just recently did a totally new upgrade 3-4 months ago. The site looked completely different before then. That would be like Clutch doing his upgrade six months ago, and including Francis and Mobley on the front page.
