However the show was taken off the schedule at the end of 2006 and replaced by Fox Sports Radio's Steve Czaban. WOFX was also once home to Jay Mohr's syndicated midday sports show. WOFX is the Albany market home to the syndicated Cigar Dave show.
In addition to sports talk, the station clears a sizeable amount of play by play on both the local and national levels. WOFX currently is home to New York Knicks basketball, and Buffalo Bills football. It carries University at Albany college football and men's basketball, some Syracuse University football and basketball games not heard on WGY, plus the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship among other events.

Why this record matters
“WOFX (AM)” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, WOFX, Sports and Radio provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7953810. Authority coordinates are 42.782, -73.835. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2006.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
