John Mamola: Talking Tampa Sports Radio

I'm reminded every time I travel through Tampa on my way to
Sarasota, how busy the radio market is. Equally busy is the
number of sports teams that compete for media attention. By my
count there are the NFL Buccaneers, NHL Lightning, Major League
Baseball Rays, and plenty of college football needing attention
from the Gators, Seminoles and University of South Florida Bulls.
That's a lot to program and keep track of. John Mamola is the
program director of Sports Radio 95.7 WDAE in the Tampa-St.
Petersburg area, and shared his thoughts on the audience and how
he can best disperse the overload of sports in the area.


Add to that, many in the audience and in the stands are displaced
northerners, (like himself) who come with pre-determined team
allegiances that aren't local. In this episode, you'll find out
why the NHL Lightning do so much better than that other team in
Florida, the Panthers, what his thoughts are on the futures of
Jameis Winston and the Tampa Bay Rays. We also chatted about
working within the confines of carrying National radio shows like
The Herd with Colin Cowherd and The Dan Patrick Radio Show,


John is a great Twitter Follow ... so follow him.
