If The Ticket Has Already Covered This, Apologies

55 comments:

  1. I hadn't heard it in my listening, but quite possible one or another host has covered it.

    Dee Brock, the main founder of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, passed away a few days ago at the age of 96.

    RIP.

    because of the previous thread that included the complaints about someone selling Ticket content being shut down, I just had to ask:

    Do people not know that the station offers SEVEN different podcast feeds, that combined actually post I'd guess 90% of each day's content - FOR FREE?

    Including one that features weekend show content from WIP?

    1. Not even close to 90%. Why not just make it 100%?

    3. Ah, I see now. I had no idea the Cowboys Ranch Report wasn't actually just the cowboys ranch reports from Joe Hoyt.

    4. So this question remains though...why not make 100% available? And have them arranged by show rather than a hodgepodge of 1 days segments scattered among 7 different podcast feeds??

    5. I assume it has been portioned into individual channels and segments for several reasons, but #1-5 is "advertising".

      The rest is a mix of programming choices based, again my assumption, is to provide content based on interests.

      As a business person, I can't figure out a justifiable use case, specific to The Ticket, where dumping 100% of the day's unedited audio online somehow isn't a giant risk to what is its singular goal: Nielsen ratings.

      Ironically, because of the lawsuit the station currently isn't in that system, but (again) I assume that will be settled soon. Maybe Cumulus dumps Nielsen forever, and then the goal posts are moved and maybe the station reconsiders its digital playbook.

  3. Junior mentioned if in scatter shooting on Friday. I have not heard it discussed elsewhere on the little one but I have not heard every segment either.

  4. It's a shame that a radio station can't get their signal to work

    1. wait who is the nominal owner of the ticket i can't remember

    2. You can have the best antenna and transmitter in the world and it won't stop the Spanish station in Tyler from bleeding over when the weather is changing. Something about the physics of the way FM radio signals travel. YMMV

    3. That's not the issue this time. The signal is simply not working

    1. Have you seen The Routine? The stagnation? The turn of tone of the reddit comments? Sometimes the STB dropped is your own.

    2. What I was gonna say. The vibes have definitely on the Reddit pages. No idea how their subs are looking, but it went from always positive can’t be negative to mainly negative and people saying why they stopped subscribing lol.

    3. Its the discord tards trolling the reddit tards.

    4. Sinking ship. Dumb isn't so ironic, after all.

    5. Never listened/subscribed to DZ pod, nor peruse Reddit. So all the STB talk was about mental Jake and above average (yet greatness with Bob) Dan? Well kiss my grits. Strangely, all the pods being broadcast on Fox 4 late night are now a part of my wife's fall asleep routine. Which means I am now exposed to to a wide range of pure crap.

    7. Thing is, Ed, it's deeper than that. There are obvious deleterious issues going on in TDZ world that have been affecting the product for quite some time now. And they all appear to be Jake centric. He seems to have reconnected with his high school/college self and has embraced the reunion in full throated fashion. OK, he never actually left that exceedingly unattractive part of himself behind. But he matured just enough to mask it. Over the past three years, whatever restraints in place have all been removed. Points For Sex cum The Rich Kid Activist cum Smartest Guy in the Room Just Ask Me is back. And he's in full effect, totally unfettered.

    8. Way too much TC with TDZ these days....

    9. Jake is why I went somewhere else for my sports talk, in my estimation

    2. I didn't used to understand listeners who said they did not particularly like The Ticket during Cowboys season. Then Sturm moved to drive time. I don't know how anyone can make it through a segment like that without stabbing themselves in the eye. I looked, it is on The Ticket Top 10 if you want to torture yourself.

    3. So you're saying a sports talk radio station shouldn't talk about the most paid attention to, obsessed over sports org in the region who are currently playing out their season. Cool.

  12. Another bad take by Slurm on Arch Manning. Of course the tape lies. How many 1st round busts have there been in the NFL that had incredible tape? Slurm sucks. He’s turning into Gordon trying to argue both sides.

    1. Yeah, man. They just lost a listener. I'm DONE! Thanks for showing me the light.

    2. Are we shocked? He insisted that there’s no way Brock Purdy would remain good and is still claiming Dak is good.

      Delete
    3. Both Purdy and Dak can be good.

      Delete
    4. I just think that...October 16, 2026 at 3:24 PM

      True they can both be good. However earlier this week, Sturm called Purdy a system QB. Then when Troy was on he said people are no longer saying that because Purdy has proven himself. He does lead the league in total QBR and is 2nd to only Josh Allen in traditional QB rating.

    5. sturm monitors the weekly thread on reddit dude is so thin skinned
