While I attended the Bloomberg Sports Baseball launch in New York today, three press releases from CBS Sports flew into the Fang’s Bites inbox. I could not post them right away, but I give them to you now. All deal with the Super Bowl which CBS Sports is airing next Sunday. First, CBS tells us […]

Lists by publications are made to stir debate and also give them a bit of publicity. The list that was published today by The Sporting News and sister publication Sports Business Daily/Sports Business Journal certainly does that. Already, I’m a bit perturbed that college and NFL announcers are mixed together as are play-by-play callers and […]

After battling the ESPN College Football schedule press release for over an hour and a half as I edited it and tried to get it to format properly, this release from Westwood One Radio arrived in the Fang’s Bites inbox. This should be considerably easier to edit compared to ESPN’s mile long release. Take a […]

I’m back from New York after attending the Blogs With Balls conference. Actually, I got back around midnight, but I was so tired, I hit the bed and didn’t get up until after 9:30 this morning. I updated Twitter from the conference between 10 and 4, but after that, I couldn’t do anything as my […]

Mostly due to laziness, I’m doing the Friday megalinks late at night. I was at work today and that took precedence, but I did do some blog posts during the day, but any links. So I’ll take care of that now and combine Friday’s and Saturday’s links together. Of course, we have the Weekend Viewing […]

Hello. Every day, I briefly check WEEI to hear who’s hosting the morning show for Dennis & Callahan. Today, it was Bob Lobel and Steve Burton from Channel 4 in Boston along with Jon Meterperel. Unless something happens quickly, it appears that Entercom is willing to continue without its signature show for as long as […]

They say you’re supposed to come back from a three day weekend recharged. Whomever said that should be shot. I’m not recharged. I’m dragging more than usual. I think we should have a five day weekend so we come back Thursday, then leave for home on Friday. That’s what we should have. I think I […]

Good morning. Quick report on the IAAF World Championships in Osaka, Japan. The US won two more golds with Jeremy Wariner leading an American sweep of the men’s 400 Meters and Allyson Felix easily beat 100 Meter gold medalist Veronica Campbell of Jamaica and the rest of the field in the women’s 200 Meters. Great […]

Jim Williams of the DC/Baltimore Examiner in his Watch This! blog has […]

Time for the links on this Wednesday. The New York Times’ Richard Sandomir talks with former MLB Commissioner Fay Vincent about the NBA referee gambling scandal. You may remember Vincent was in charge when the Pete Rose gambling story ruled the front pages. Paul Gough of the Hollywood Reporter writes that the NBA TV partners […]

Before I do the choices, let me give you a bit of small breaking news, not full blown scale BREAKING NEWS. Neil Best of Newsday spoke with Boomer Esiason’s agent and he found out that Boomer is pretty much the top choice to host the WFAN morning drive show. Even though Friend of Don Imus, […]
