Jamie Samuelson leaves WDFN for WRIF

Jamie Samuelson’s absence on the WDFN morning show has created a big hole in my morning commute. I listened to Jamie and Gregg, then Jamie and Brady, for years before moving out to LA.

Samuelson is a refreshing presence in sports broadcasting. He asks good questions, he tells good stories and he seems to have a genuine interest in everything he covers.

I think the ‘Rif will be good for Jamie, but I was kind of surprised to see that an all-sports station like “The Ticket” wouldn’t also be able to sense his talent and find a place for him. Clear Channel is obviously dis-investing itself of WDFN and the Detroit sports market, which is sad. Rumor has it we should look forward to hearing Jamie on WRIF sometime around October 3.
