98.5 has 2 things WWZN and WAMG didn't - hassle free signal and two anchor teams in Pats and Bruins 

WWZN had Celtics when they stunk

985 also does not promote callers like Frank from Gloucester



 
 

I'm not a regular listener to sports talk, but when I've listened to WEEI I've heard a lot of political rants.  Of course it's more irritating when I don't agree, but they all act like it's us-against-them and assume that we in the audience agree with their alleged common-sense view of the world  I don't know why the hosts would take 30-70% of their potential audience who might disagree and make them feel excluded.  Unlike the sports opinions, the politics are often poorly thought out and unconvincing.  When I've heard The Sports Hub I've heard more sports and no politics...although I haven't listened to the morning show which seems to be where these stray topics are more likely to show up.
