atskooc Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 15 hours ago, Norm Peterson said: Warren Swain doing basketball should have been called Snorin' Wayne. Ugh. The Nebraska Sports Nightly show started out as "Mid-America Sports Nightly" on KLIN in Lincoln. The original guys, I believe, were Pat Combs, John Baylor, Gary Sharp, and Jim Rose. Talk about a stable of talent at a single small-market radio station. By the by, Combs and Baylor went to their own local news/issues show, "To the Point with Combs and Baylor." Rose left for greener pastures in Kansas City or something. And Sharp took over Sports Nightly. And it was a great show. They talked about Huskers and major league baseball and the NFL and any other sport issue you wanted to hear about. And then Pinnacle or whoever came along and wanted to turn it into a Huskers-only program. And they decided to shit-can Gary Sharp. And they turned Sports Nightly into a nightly snooze fest. I was sooooo pissed. Sports Nightly was such a great show and Gary Sharp was such a great host. And they replaced him with Snorin' Wayne or whoever, and a young, inexperienced Matt Davison for a time. And just rotated whatever clown they could find to come in and do the program. Because none of them were very good at it. And it sucked out loud. Gary Sharp did a great job of coming up with content to get people calling in and talking when he did the show. His replacements were unimaginative dullards. How many shows can you get away with interviewing the broadcast play-by-play guy for one of our conference rivals? I don't care what that guy thinks or what his life story is. So I just stopped listening. And I've never gone back. I only tune in for games, and that's basically it. Trivia Thursdays was my favorite. I don't think I ever stumped Rose, but I gave it a shot a time or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got him on Garth Brooks' track event at Oklahoma State. Rosie swore he was a pole vaulter. He actually threw the javelin. Scoreboard HB.

I tried to get him with Scott Frost being the last quarterback (at the time) to beat Tommie Frazier (it was in the spring game), but he didn't accept it, as he thought it was a bogus question. The following year he asked a caller to name the last game played in Memorial Stadium on grass...and he gave the spring game as the answer. I was miffed.

And didn't Sharp do PBP for baseball as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite comes at the 10:40 mark of the 2H (2 hrs 24 minutes into the radio broadcast) where you get a possessed Kent calilng a CJ make "It is goooooood, it is goooood" You also get a very high energy and possessed "How about these Huskeeeers". Very good stuff from Kent in that 2nd half! Huskerpapa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
