97.1 The Eagle KEGL becomes 97.1 The Bird

Well 5pm on Friday has passed in Dallas - Fort Worth and we now know that 97.1 The Eagle KEGL has changed its name to 97.1 The Bird...at least for a day:


Friday, January 8th is the day 97.1 THE BIRD KEGL – FM lands in Dallas/Ft. Worth.
At 5 pm today 97.1 The Eagle has taken it upon their selves to speak on behalf of the D/FW area and not even speak the word Eagle in support of the Cowboys. “Because of our extreme dislike of the Philadelphia Eagles we’re giving them The Bird…in more ways than one” said Program Director, Chris Ryan.
To fully support our team and OUR community, 97.1 The Eagle will be 97.1 The Bird until after the Cowboys game Saturday night.
Management has noted what a great show of support the station has for the D/FW area as well as the greatest football team in the world, “Everyone at KEGL are all die hard Cowboys fans. If Chad Ochocinco of the Cincinnati Bengals can permanently change his name, the least we can do is change The Eagle to The Bird for a weekend in show of support for The Dallas Cowboys!!,” Vince Richards, Operations Manager said.
As of the stroke of midnight Sunday morning, January 10th, you’ll have your Eagle back, flying high again. With what we think will be a convincing Dallas victory.
