Updated 1/18 – SYRACUSE — Does the Syracuse area have more Boston Red Sox fans or more New York Mets fans? After carrying Sox baseball last season, ESPN Radio 97.7/100.1 (WTLA/WSGO) is now hedging its bets with Mets fans. The station announced on Friday that it’ll be Syracuse’s radio home for the New York Mets this coming season. 
SYRACUSE — For the second time in a single season, Perry Noun’s golf talk show, Tee Time with the Pronoun, is changing stations again. After starting the 2011 season on ESPN Radio 97.7/100.7 (WTLA/WSGO/W249BC/W261AC), the Saturday morning program will be cut in half and moved back to the AM dial, to Cumulus Media’s The Score 1260 (WSKO).
SYRACUSE — There are two new but familiar voices on ESPN Radio CNY’s Disturbing the Peace. Sports director Steve Infanti from ABC affiliate NewsChannel 9 (WSYR-TV) is now a co-host, along with former SU football star Donovin Darius. The two new hosts share the studio with ESPN Radio program director and original host Chris McManus as the weekday afternoon show expands to a third hour.
SYRACUSE — This morning’s intense storms are to blame for taking ESPN Radio 97.7 and 100.1 off the air for much of Thursday. (Updated Friday 6/24 at 8:00am — the stations are back on the air.)

That’s likely because FM Newsradio 106.9 and 570 WSYR, which carries the Yankees games, is also an affiliate of Rush Limbaugh.
SYRACUSE — As warmer weather approaches, duffers will be pleased to hear that Perry Noun’s long running Tee Time with the Pronoun will be back on the radio this spring — though it’ll have a new home on the dial for its tenth season. Because Noun’s old station, WHEN 620, abandoned its old sports format a few months ago, he’s relocating to the ESPN Radio stations owned by Galaxy Communications. 
CENTRAL NEW YORK — All this week we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of CNYRadio.com with a series of special reports. Yesterday, several folks who’ve been in local radio for 10+ years explained why they feel consolidation was “the” biggest story from the past decade. Despite the negative side of consolidation, most radio pros are optimistic for what’s ahead. Today, we share their predictions for the next ten years.
SYRACUSE — When Clear Channel eliminated the sports format on AM 620 (WHEN), as part of a two-stage move to create an AM/FM simulcast of dominant news/talk station WSYR, two local sports shows hosted by Mike Bristol were left homeless. Now, both shows are “back and better than ever,” across town at the four ESPN Radio stations owned by Galaxy Communications.
