Monday Update

Some more stuff for you today. Larry Stewart of the LA Times has a review of NBC’s coverage of the U.S. Open. Phil Mushnick compares Bob Costas and Chris Berman, both of whom were at the Open and you can see where this is going. This could be a developing story, especially if the NFL […]

Monday, Monday

Back to work on Monday and one thing I noticed from the sports weekend. It seemed the networks did not want to compete with the U.S. Open on NBC. CBS Sports was mostly dark except for an America’s Cup recap late Sunday afternoon. ESPN decided not to feed ABC anything. No WNBA, no celebrity golf, […]

Sunday Stuff

A few things for you today. First, I went to my favorite bar in Seekonk, MA to find it had been sold and taken over by new management. Now, I had heard this was a possibility, but two weeks ago, the old owner had told me that the new liquor license for the potential buyer […]

Chris Berman picks his nose, Part Deux

The story about Chris Berman picking his nose is spreading over the internet like wildfire. It’s like the story picked up by Deadspin regarding Berman picking up a woman saying, “You’re with me, Leather.” This is stuff you can’t make up. Diamondsapphire who’s blog entry on her experience with Berman picking his nose on a […]

Chris Berman picks his nose

Thanks to the Sports by Brooks site, a woman has posted this blog entry about her experience flying with Chris Berman. It’s hardly positive, but any chance to give a negative post on Berman in the wake of his horrible performance at the US Open this week (thank goodness ESPN’s telecast is over) is welcome […]

More Friday Links

Back after having to fill in for someone. I’m back at work so I’ll give you some interesting tidbits I’ve come across. First, there was a rumor that Tony Kornheiser was a candidate to replace Don Imus on WFAN/CBS Radio. Second, that was not only a rumor, but there was interest on both sides. Third, […]

Friday Links

I’ll do as many links as I can this morning. I do have to leave work today so I’ll give you as many as my time permits. First, USA Today, Fox and ESPN are talking with Major League Baseball about expanding their coverage when Barry Bonds gets closer to the all-time home run record. You […]

Could Meadowlands be the Next Sopranos?

I was surfing the net this evening just minding my own business when I came across a preview for Showtime’s new series, “Meadowlands” that premieres on Sunday. The premise is a family that goes into the witness protection program and is given new names, new life, new home, all in a neighborhood where everything looks […]

Thursday at the Open

I’m not really at the US Open at Oakmont, but thanks to US Open.com, I’m able to watch ESPN’s early round coverage plus watch a channel devoted to Tiger Woods’ play and now Phil Mickelson. Using NBC’s cameras, ESPN has had good coverage of the round. Mike Tirico, doing his first tournament of the year, […]

Thursday Links

Today is Day 1 of the US Open at Oakmont. There have been a lot of articles about NBC’s Johnny Miller who shot a 63 at Oakmont when the US Open was there in 1973. But time to look at the links for today and there are a lot of them. Already, the networks of […]

You're Not Watching the NBA

The overnight ratings are out. Ratings for Game 3 of the NBA Finals are absolutely awful. It’s apparent even with alleged star power of LeBron James, the country is not enthralled with the San Antonio-Cleveland matchup. The numbers show that “America’s Got Talent” won the night for NBC. Game 3 did finish second for the […]

Wednesday Links

It’s the middle of the week. Let’s take a look at the links today. A couple of stories from Michael Hiestand of USA Today. First, the ratings for the NBA Finals are about to become the lowest ever for the series. With the San Antonio Spurs up 3-0, there’s a sense that the Spurs will […]

More Tuesday Links

First, I would like to welcome those who are coming over to this blog from the Imus Truth blog and Support Imus website. In one of my entries yesterday, I linked to an article from Bob Raissman of the New York Daily News talking about the search to replace Don Imus. This is what I […]

Quick Links

I’ll give you a couple of links this morning. Work issues, you know the drill. Anyway, here are a few to tie you over for now. Red Sox fans know that Manny Ramirez is not speaking to the media this season so it came as a surprise when Man-Ram did a video piece with Fang’s […]
