I don't blame them but I don't think Coug fans should support them either.
Their model has always been all "local" programming which is why you hear five different hosts talking about the same three things every day.
I don't agree that it would be the same problem if KIRO were to pick up the Dogs. They've opted to buy broadcast rights for the Seahawks, Mariners, and Sounders. They're an affiliate of ESPN so they bring in a lot of national stories to supplment the local stuff. Just having the M's and Hawks would naturally spread coverage if they were to pick up the Doggies.
I agree with you on this point though. Competition is good. It's good that KJR exists to try and fill a niche role in Seattle. I just don't think anyone other than Doggy fans should listen.
