There Used To Be Clocks Here

Thanks To Brent Axe

Brent Axe and some other blogger.
After countless hours on the air at Syracuse's The Score 1260am "On The Block", and all those hours being simulcast on Time Warner Cable, Brent Axe is leaving his show. While he's not traveling too far (becoming  a "community engagement specialist" at Syracuse.com) he still won't be on the air every day like he was. And so, because of that, we say congratulations on many stories broken, interviews given, callers taken, e-mails read, and opinions broadcast. So we just wanted to take a few seconds here at Orange::44 to say thanks for all the entertainment and for inviting me on the program the many times over the years to talk sports or the law. And also for all the times in person and on the phone we talked about sports and other things. We look forward to still seeing you around the Dome and maybe one of these days at the bar to buy you that beer. But the radio listeners, Mookie lovers, and advocates of MANTOMAN defense have all lost. But at least you won't be leaving completely and we wish you nothing but the best.

Back On The Block For Football

Axe is out of the heat and back in the studio.

It’s the week before the first football game, which means everyone is doing mega previews. This blog is no exception. But that also means that the guys in the big time are as well. Our good friend Brent Axe is having me on his program at the top of the 4:00pm hour. Tune in on your radio dial at 1260AM in CNY, or you can always listen online at TheScore1260.com. You can catch out the show on TWCS as well on channel 813 or 43, or if you are outside of the TWCS viewing area, watch online at TWCS.tv. Of if you miss all that, just tune into the podcast later. I’ll post the link below after the show.

BH On The Block Again

Had to talk about that game with Axe.

After that ridiculous ending to the Syracuse/Cornell game Brent Axe of "On The Block" fame had me on his show to discuss the game. We also talked about some SU football, Wes going pro, and our glorious five year anniversary. Next time we'll have dancing I promise. Either way, if you missed it, you can listen to the clip or download the podcast here. Check it out because it is quality as always.

Stopping By The Block

In stunning high definition.
Today I was invited to appear on Brent Axe's show On The Block on ESPN Radio 1260 in Syracuse to talk about the basketball team. But we also got into a bit of football and lacrosse as well. It' s 11 minutes worth of concentrated SU talk that you'll enjoy if you're a regular listener or reader of this blog. You can download the audio right here. My thanks to Axe for having me on.

Nunes/Magician "On The Block" Liveblog!

I imagined Sean on the radio like Troy with a headset on.
Since Sean of Troy Nunes is an Absolute Magician was on Brent Axe's new show "On The Block" today on ESPN1260 in Syracuse today, and that he liveblogged the show yesterday, and the fact that The Sport Hump liveblogged the liveblog, I decided to liveblog Sean's appearence. It is an orgy of liveblogging! Enjoy!
4:00pm: Axe will be back out of the hard hourly break with Sean from Nunes/Magician on shortly. They keep proclaiming him the “Best Syracuse Blog”. You know what that means? Next time Sean and I are in the same town there will be an Orange Blogisphere knife fight.

4:03pm: There was a commercial on the internet stream for “Speed Racer” coming out soon. Will anyone on earth see this movie? Not likely.

4:06pm: Sean is finally on. Axe hedges his bet by saying no offense to us for calling Nunes/Magician the best Syracuse blog.

4:08pm: Already there was a Hot Pocket reference. Nice. Death pocket.

4:10pm: Another Orange::44 reference. Excellent. My ego is blowing up faster than Bill Self’s street cred.

4:11pm: Sean recounts the story of how he named the blog “Troy Nunes is an Absolute Magician”. I agree, it is one of the best names for a blog period. No joke here, it is just the truth.

4:14pm: Axe makes a Marcy reference. If you know who Marcy is… you win.

4:16pm: Sean has a 9-5 job? I hope his employer doesn’t understand what internet is.

4:18pm: The word "flash" was just used by both Sean and Axe no less than 17 times within the minute.

4:20pm: Talking about Greg Robinson’s press conferences are good for no less than 4 laugh out louds.

4:24pm: Axe once again kisses Sean’s butt and Sean says goodbye. Excellent job fellas. I’ll do my best to not sound like a fool tomorrow.
I will be "On The Block" tomorrow with Mr. Axe around 3:30pm EST so please tune in for that. I know I'm looking forward to it and it should be a lot of fun.
