Having had to take Dad to the eye doctor then being told that I can’t go to the Massachusetts office because he’s taking a client to lunch is really killing me. Not having a car is killing me. Not having my own schedule is killing me. And after today, the blogging schedule will be light […]

I’m always a proponent of Stand Up 2 Cancer and anything that brings us a step closer to beating this horrid disease, I’m always in favor. MLB which has been a partner with Stand Up 2 Cancer for the last few years has announced a new program in which fans can buy a “virtual” piece […]

Shuffling between offices again today and I could be called back to the home office so I’m trying to squeeze linkage in right now.

ESPN2 continues its MLS coverage with the live airing of the 2010 All-Star Game from Houston. A team of MLS All-Stars including the LA Galaxy’s Landon Donovan will take on Manchester United from the English Premier League. This is rather unique and something that could actually make me watch. I like soccer, but I’d rather […]

ESPN has made the official announcement that Brad Nessler and up and coming analyst Trent Dilfer will be the announcing team for the 2nd Monday Night Football game for the Opening Weekend doubleheader on September 13. It’s a good move as Nessler has called the NFL in the past for CBS. Dilfer impressed me during […]

Ok, I’ve relented to the NFL and will start calling its exhibition games, “preseason games”. I asked an NFL spokesman if the NFL Network schedule of re-airs was coming out today and lo and behold, he sends them to me. It’s one of the reasons why I like dealing with the league. The NFL’s PR […]

It hard to believe that Jerry Remy has been the Red Sox analyst on NESN dating back to 1988. At first, he was cable-only, teamed with Ned Martin, then eventually doing both broadcast and cable when WABU-TV purchased the over the air rights from WSBK in 1995. Since then, he’s been the every day analyst […]
