The voice of the Detroit Lions Dan Miller joins Tim to talk about America's Thanksgiving football tradition and life as a pro football play-by-play announcer. Dan is the Sports Director at Fox 2 TV in Detroit, and he's been the play-by-play radio voice of the National Football League's Detroit Lions since 2005. In this episode, Dan talks about a Thanksgiving tradition that dates back to 1934. The annual Thanksgiving Detroit Lions football game. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Detroit_Lions_Thanksgiving_auphonic.mp3 In 1934, baseball was America's pastime, but American football was starting to gain momentum. That's the year that a Detroit radio executive named George Richards organized a group to buy a pro football team in Portsmouth, Ohio and move it to Detroit.  In order to generate interest and ticket sales, he came up with an idea. So, he approached George Halas.  He was the owner of the Chicago Bears. Richards wanted his newly christened Detroit Lions to play the Chicago Bears on Thanksgiving morning. He was successful. Then, right after that, he convinced the NBC Radio Network to broadcast the game across the country to its 94 local radio stations. That year, the Lions were 10 and 1, and the Bears were 11 and 0. The star players on the Bears were Red Grange and Bronko Nagurski. The game was a sellout, with 26,000 fans in attendance in a stadium on the campus of the University of Detroit. This was the largest crowd that had ever watched a game in Detroit. The game was a hit. The national radio broadcast – also a first – was a hit as well. The Bears won the game 19 to 16. That game was the start of an American Thanksgiving tradition. Dan Miller (left) with former Detroit Lion and Pittsburgh Steeler QB Charlie Batch. (Source: Dan Miller) On most Thanksgiving days in the past 87 years, the Detroit Lions have played football. The only exceptions were from 1939 through 1944, which were the World War Two years. The first nationally televised Thanksgiving game was the one between the Lions and the Green Bay Packers in 1953. Still, the Lions weren't the first pro football team to play on Thanksgiving. In 1920, the Elyria, Ohio Athletics took on the Columbus Panhandles for a scoreless tie. And from 1922 through 1933, the Chicago Cardinals and the Chicago Bears had played each other on Thanksgiving. In more recent times, the Dallas Cowboys threw their hat into the ring. In 1966, the NFL decided to add a second Thanksgiving game to the schedule, featuring the Dallas Cowboys. Then in 2006, the league added a third game to the Thanksgiving schedule, though both participants in that game change from year to year. As voice of the Detroit Lions, Dan Miller has been a part of America's Thanksgiving football tradition since 2005.

Radio can be challenging enough in any town, but hosting a top morning show when your market is in the shadow of a Top 15 market adds a whole new level of competition. That's where https://wildcountry99.com/kelly-wood-morning-show/ (KELLY & WOOD) come in...to WIN! Based at https://leightonbroadcasting.com/ (Leighton Broadcasting's) https://wildcountry99.com/ (WILD COUNTRY 99). Kelly Jordan has been in mornings for a while, but Matt Wood is a recent addition, from his 'other job' as Sports Director for the cluster. In this episode, they offer some great tips on putting a winning morning show together, while wearing multiple hats in today's consolidated radio...and all the while keeping their eye on the prize of WINNING in their market, despite the bigger market signals that can penetrate their hometown. Key points you won't want to miss: [02:53] St. Cloud can be a unique market – serving its own area, yet living in the shadow of the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. And consolidated radio means everybody is wearing more hats (or headphones) these days. Kelly & Wood share a typical day and share tips for making it all work. [04:42] As a fairly new morning team, they share some invaluable tips on creating a new morning show on the fly -- and making it work! [08:17] Living in a medium market while also working on multiple stations, Kelly & Wood offer helpful tips on whether to adjust their ‘on-air' persona or just showcase different sides of their personalities. [07:09] We get some great tips for anyone trying to break into the business or advance their careers today? [14:01] Kelly & Matt each share lessons learned, and how it's evolved WHAT they do differently today, and HOW they now do it!

As the bye week for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers comes to an end, we are joined by the Sports Director of 10 Tampa Bay to talk about some things we like, things we don't like, and things we are looking forward to. The Bucs came out of the first half of their season in first place in the NFC South, sitting at 6-2 but coming off a brutal loss to their division rival New Orleans Saints. What were some of the best moments and players that helped catapult that record to what it is? And where were some of the shortcomings that caused this team to struggle against two of the three playoff caliber teams they faced? Heading into the second half of the year, the Buccaneers kick things off against a pair of NFC East teams in the Washington Football Team and New York Giants before heading into a difficult stretch of three playoff caliber teams in four games. We assess what the Buccaneers need to do in order to come out on top in those games and what direction the Bucs should be heading in after an important bye week. Health has been an issue all season and it will continue to be but hopefully in the opposite fashion as the first half. Tampa Bay will begin to see players returning from injury as the Bucs strive to be at full strength down the stretch and into the postseason. What, besides health, should be viewed as the most important thing for the Buccaneers coming out of the bye week? Finally, we hand out a few mid-season awards and point to the player that needs to have the biggest second half of the season to help the team get back on track for another championship run.
