Sports Talk Radio Rivalry

     There are two choices on the FM dial when it comes to sports talk radio in the Metro Detroit area.  97.1 The Ticket is a CBS affiliate, and Detroit Sports 105.1 is affiliated with ESPN Radio.  Detroit Sports 105.1 started off strong when it arrived on the airwaves in August of 2013, but 97.1 The Ticket currently offers a stronger selection of programming.  97.1 The Ticket broadcasts Detroit Tigers games, and Detroit Red Wings games.  Detroit Sports 105.1 broadcasts Detroit Pistons games.
     Drew Lane left Detroit Sports 105.1 back in October, and his departure was considered surprising.  Detroit Sports 105.1 is simulcasting less ESPN Radio shows like "Mike & Mike", and the changes could push listeners away.  Click on the link below for more information about Detroit Sports 105.1.
     97.1 The Ticket features several local personalities including Terry Foster.  Foster was a sports writer for the The Detroit News for 27 years before retiring back in December.  97.1 The Ticket used to broadcast Detroit Lions games, but the Lions are moving to WJR,760-AM for the 2016 -2017 season.  Click on the link below for more information about 97.1 The Ticket.
