Once again listeners to Denver's Mile High Sports Radio have to deal with not hearing their regularly scheduled programing. Without adequate warning, former 94.1 FM/1550 AM (and previously 93.7 FMand 1510 AM, that's a whole other story highlighted HERE) Mile High Sports Radio radio signal got sold off and they are moving again. Their return date is scheduled to be June 1st but we have heard a similar song and dance when they went away after the 93.7/1510 fiasco where it dragged out and then after it did come up the signal was down repeatedly and the static was similar to listening to the tune dial in the 1985 Ford Escort, 1980s Orange Pinto or 1980s Ford LTD I rolled around in the backseat of hung out in the front as a small child pressing or rolling through the stations.
Let's be honest, Mile High Sports is to Denver Sports Radio what the Rockies are to Professional Denver Sports Teams. They have local programming on more often than the other guys in town, like the Rockies play more games than anyone else. They are ran by a couple local guys while 105.5 ESPN and 104.3 The Fan have been run by deep pockets. Monforts vs Billionaire Stan Kroenke and Billionaire Bowlen conglomerate. MHS has some big guns in their line-up but if you ask people under 40 the guys they know in Denver Sports they will name people from The Fan most likely (doesn't necessarily mean they are better since idiots still tune-in to Big Al and D-Mac and mind numbing numbers with the best man in sports Nate Krecman on 105.5 ESPN at that time or Fan Morning Show when legends, well folk heroes Danny Williams and Cello Romano are on in the morning) so Tulo and Cargo while Arenado is the best player and often overlooked. And they continue to have loyal listeners stick around even with all the crap they have gone through with them, because they enjoy that local talk and enjoy something different like Rockies "fans" show up to support a broken franchise that continues to make mistakes.
Okay, that comparison may be a little harsh but to just not be on-air for 10 days is absolutely ridiculous and to not give notice of it over the course of a week or so is another snafu. Mile High Sports has been a guilty pleasure, as any regular reader knows and any listener knowing my Angry Andy fame, but sooner or later you have to say ENOUGH! Angry Andy has had enough and this listener is going to stick with Nate Kreckman full time in the afternoons and is going to be all Howard Stern in the times between. Well, until June 1st where I will probably say, let's give them another try and check out this new and improved signal. Damn you Rockies, I mean Mile High Sports.
