With 2011 behind us, it’s time to reflect on the year that was. I was very fortunate here at DSS to work, interview, and interact with some great people. And to celebrate the accomplishments of 2011, I’m putting together a list of the Top 11 Most Viewed Posts on DSS. From interviews to stories to broadcasts, I will recap what made DSS a success in 2011 and a staple in the Cleveland sports media.
Daryl Ruiter and I on DSS.
DSS has had many co-hosts. From Gary “The Numbers Guy” to Daniel Brock to Tony Mazur, unique, opinionated voices have graced the internet airwaves. And 2011 was no different as #11 on the countdown is “DSS Repackaged With New Voices”.
I was very excited to bring Ashleigh Ignelzi on-board earlier in the year for the weekly show on Saturdays, broadcasting live on the Digital Sports Network on cleveland.com. While we didn’t broadcast many shows together, the chemistry was there. We enjoyed our three-hour show and the fans of DSS loved what they heard (and saw) from Ashleigh. It marked the first time a female voice made it’s way full-time on DSS and I have to say, working with her was awesome.
Then in June, I had to reinvent DSS once again. With Ashleigh living in Columbus and not able to drive up every Saturday to do a show, I had to look for a new co-host. With DSN no more, it was a no-brainer to have long-time sportscaster Daryl Ruiter as my new co-host. Daryl and I enjoyed a nice run of great shows in a brand new studio. From great guests and the humorous banter between us, it was a thrill to learn and talk sports with such a pro.
(Listen to some of the great shows with Daryl as co-host here, here, and here.)
And finally, I had a couple co-hosts during my time with DSN that are worth mentioning. Three to be exact. First, was WMMS radio personality Chad Zumock. He brought a funny twist to the sports talk. Then was New York Daily News New York Knicks beat writer Frank Isola and finally, good friend of DSS over at StepienRules.com, Brendan Bowers.
It was also great to let the DSS listeners voice their opinions of the show and topics in our chat rooms and call-in line. You the listeners/readers made the shows fun and I am grateful to each and everyone of you!
