Friday Mega-Update

If it’s Friday, it means a whole slew of sports media stories from all over the country. Let’s get started without any further delay. Some media writers took yesterday off for Rosh Hashanah so the links might be a bit lighter, but we still have a lot of links today. Starting with Michael Hiestand of […]

Really Late Thursday Links

Some more links to pass to you tonight. TV Week gives us the final national ratings for sports last week.

Newsday’s Neil Best continues to post pictures of women on his blog entries. He explains that the pictures are tasteful and are mostly relevant to his […]

Mid-Week Stuff

On this Wednesday, there’s a lot of talk about the silly Cameragate thing. I’m not condoning the New England Patriots’ use of a video camera to tape the Jets’ defensive signals. But for a lot of teams to use this “holier than thou” attitude is just ridiculous. Other teams have done this, they just haven’t […]

DirecTV apologizes. Sort of. And an Mini-Update to Boot.

If you’re a subscriber to DirecTV and its NFL Sunday Ticket Superfan service, you’re eligible to watch games online through Supercast. Now on Sunday, I and many subscribers had difficulty accessing the site. I chronicled this twice on Sunday. I’ve sent e-mails to their public relations department to get an answer, but so far, no […]

Tuesday Midday Update

Back at home after going to the meeting and having to prevent a flooding situation in the basement (heavy rains in Southern New England today). Now that’s done, I can give you a few links here and there. After a slow start today, Newsday’s Neil Best is at it again. I think he’s still in […]

Tuesday Morning Stuff

Tuesday morning and I’m trying to get some links in from home before heading to a meeting at 10 a.m. Checking the sports weekend ratings, Michael Hiestand of USA Today has his take on some of the events. Paulsen of the Sports Media Watch has an in-depth look at the ratings. A couple of things […]

The Monday Links or the Return of Dennis & Callahan

You had a feeling that we would hear the return of John Dennis & Gerry Callahan on WEEI today and that’s exactly what happened. Usually, I don’t have WEEI on my clock radio first thing, but I made sure it was on just to make sure I would be able to hear them. Lo and […]
