AP1 Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 As I stated in my very first post, I read this board to get my Browns' news. I have started live streaming an hour of 92.3 in the morning while I feed cattle, but if there's something better I'm open. What is the best station to get Browns' news? My Dad on I always had 1440 sports talk radio saved on the AM radio dial and on trips back to PA, we'd start trying to pull it in around Columbus...driving on 70 was always a lot faster than our trips on 71, 271 and 90 because we'd get caught up listening.

The radio and local newspapers are probably your best. Local tv isn’t terrible. I know plenty of people in NE Ohio that don’t own a TV set and yet are very well informed about the team. I would even say better informed than your average national sports tv watchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lodilobo Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 There isn't really a good radio station for Browns coverage, but 92.3 is as good as it gets. Don't bother with 850....unless you want to learn about movies,cooking, the hosts personal lives, etc. They were pretty good at one time, but they suck for the last 5 years.

You certainly nailed this one! Wanna buy jewelry, a car, bee shit? Listen to 850 (Oh yeah, I forgot windows, furniture & dentists). Wanna hear about the Browns? Listen to 92.3.

They all seem to do that unfortunately. It's part of the shows. The guy on 92.3 who I don't like is Les Levine. I find him to be arrogant & condescending. At least 92.3 is not all about commercials like 850. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Oven Posted January 19, 2019 Report Share Posted January 19, 2019 So true about 850. Out of 60 minutes, you are lucky to get 10 minutes of content. The other 50 minutes are commercials, news tickers, weather updates... I have no idea how they still have any listeners. Once 92.3 came on air, I don't think I've ever listened to it again. It would be like going back to dial up internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also couldn't stand the guy when I first heard him on the old WHK. I love him now....I always listen when he's on. Excellent humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have literally had situations where I would (try to) listen to WKNR on my way to work...and the entire distance they had nothing on there but commercials and promos.

gumby73 Posted January 20, 2019 Report Share Posted January 20, 2019 it's a little strange, but on a clear evening, even parts of NC can pick-up am 850 from Cleveland. Never during the day though. 92.3 only option is internet in NC. I remember the wife asking many preseason night games. "Why are you drinking beers in your truck? Cus god still brings me Browns football on the truck radio" 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
