So that cancelled Radio Show we took as further proof Snyder was an asshole?

Nope, wasn't him. It was a hoaxer pretending to be ESPN's John Skipper calling and threatening a lawsuit.

Someone pretending to be ESPN president John Skipper managed to fool DC radio station

I'm not sure which story is worse. Either team president Bruce Allen tried to kill the show because one of the hosts had a history of being critical of the team or he tried to kill it because he thought ESPN wanted it killed. Not surprising, however. It is hard to point at any moment in Allen's tenure in DC where he ends up looking good.

Nailed this one. It's totally unlistenable.

...and the show got fairly quickly deep-sixed. Then they went back to Mike & Mike for a while, and have now replaced that with Kevin Sheehan and Chris Cooley. I don't think I will be a regular with that offering, either, but it's not completely dreadful.

Oh, and Tony Kornheiser is leaving ST 980 and moving to a podcast-only offering. For me, I think that will be no real change -- I listened live so infrequently that it won't really matter much. Don't know if the cast of characters will change much, but I'm guessing not... except maybe some of the station staff support crew will disappear.

My guess is that he likes the semi-rotation set of guests and their loyalty is surely with TK rather than ST 980, so they will stay in the fold.

That whole story continues to be a head shaker. I didn't listen to the Man Cave much, either, because my morning drive needs to be mostly kid-friendly and that show wasn't. Interesting that they dumped it just as its local ratings were starting to do better than M&M.

I find Cooley to be a bit of a blowhard, although he clearly works hard on his football analysis and it comes through on that portion of the product.

I wish they would keep Czaban and dump M&M on 570. As an experiment, I think they should take a week of M&M from 2009 and run it now, not tell anyone, and see if someone notices.

Well, if you believe the rumors, his show was never live. Since the Hannah Storm incident he's pre-taped his shows and ESPN has to green-light it before its broadcast.

Sheehan out at ST 980. Only saw this due to random twitter, the station is dead to me at this point.

Will miss @team980 so much. Memories and friends forever. I'll be around. Hope Guice isn't hurt and can't wait to see Hogan throw it. #Redskins

Chris Cooley must have decided that he didn't want to do the radio show anymore. Not surprised by that, as Cooley, when he showed up, hadn't been contributing much of value since the football season ended. Sucks that Sheehan ended up getting the axe because of it. I wonder if Sheehan will emerge on 106.7 like so much of the on air talent that ST980 has let go over the last couple of years.

I think Cooley was because of the sale, not because he didn't want to do the show anymore. Same with Doc Walker.

Sale to Urban One puts The Team 980’s programming lineup in flux - The Washington Post

Some thing Al Galdi said on the air last week led me to think that the ball was in Cooley's court, but the Post story certainly indicates that it was simply a budget issue.
