Doing some links for you now as I had work issues late this afternoon. Let me first thank the people from Sports Business Journal and Sports Business Daily for their visits to this blog. Also I thank them for linking to my video at YouTube of the first 4:40 of the Big Ten Network in […]

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 […]

Time to give you a few links tonight before heading to bed. It appears that the NFL’s TV partners will not have to deal with the silly 45 seconds of online video rule for their websites. The Sports Business Journal’s Eric Fisher, Dan Kaplan and John Ourand report that the 45 second rule does not […]

As I watch the latest episode of the greatly underrated (if that’s possible) South of Nowhere on The N and still buzzing over Clay Buchholz’s no-hitter for the Red Sox, let me give you a few links on this Sunday. Richard Sandomir of the New York Times says Saturday’s gigantic upset of Michigan by Appalachian […]

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 […]

Before the links, let me comment on a couple of things. First, the United States got another gold medal in the IAAF World Championships in Osaka, Japan when Tyson Gay made history with the rare 100-200 double today. He won the 200 Meters today in a time of 19.76 seconds and really it was no […]

After watching the finish of the evening session of the IAAF World Athletics Championships in Osaka, Japan, it’s time to give you some links. Let’s head over to Boston Sports Media Watch where Bruce Allen transcribed some rather idiotic comments made by former Boston Globe writer Ron Borges. He appeared on WEEI yesterday as substitute […]

It’s tough to be back to work on a Monday after having a nice weekend, but it’s back to the grind, but it’s also nice knowing that there’s a 3 day weekend just ahead. I’m certainly looking forward to that. But in the meantime, let’s get to our links. First, I’ll monitor the Michael Vick […]

Time to give some links today from the morning papers. Starting with Jim Williams in his Examiner blog, he writes about Keith Olbermann’s return to sports TV broadcasting with his Countdown show and subsequent appearance on Football Night in America. In the New York Times, Richard Sandomir writes about a New Era Yankees cap that […]

I briefly checked WEEI this morning to listen to Dan Patrick and he was good as usual. Teamed with Tom Curran of NBC Sports.com and unfortunately, Jon Meterperel, Dan was very good interacting with callers and his co-hosts. Only one week removed from leaving ESPN Radio, there certainly is no rust on Dan. He’s a […]

Here are a few more links for you before I head home. The Sports Media Watch blog says ESPN will continue to cover David Beckham like a rock star. Heavy hitters Bob Ley (who did play-by-play for the World Cup in the 1980’s for ESPN) and Lisa Salters have been added to Thursday’s LA Galaxy-Chivas […]

Middle of the week and time for some links for you. Lots of good stuff today. Let’s start with the Dennis & Callahan contract situation. Notice I’m no longer putting the lockout, holdout, whatever it is in the headline. Jessica Heslam of the Boston Herald writes in her Messenger blog that D & C did […]

Day 5 of the WEEI/Dennis & Callahan lockout. It appears that there’s no end in sight to this. Over at Boston Sports Media Watch, David Scott says WEEI’s parent company, Entercom has trumped John Dennis & Gerry Callahan and their options are for the most part, limited except for a return to WEEI. Jessica Heslam […]

Late Thursday, Entercom announced that it had entered with a partnership with Nassau Broadcasting to set up what? A regional sports network, the same thing reported by both David Scott of Boston Sports Media Watch.com and the Boston Herald. Scott has the latest details in this crazy story. This certainly weakens the bargaining chip for […]

We’re back on a Friday. Checked for links last night and there was nothing new so I just decided to go for a walk and listen to my new Sirius Stiletto radio. I was able to listen to the Cincinnati-Detroit and Indy-Dallas NFL exhibition games without any trouble. I do have to say it was […]

Let’s give you a few links tonight. First from the Watch This! blog, Jim Williams in the San Francisco Examiner says the Bonds 756th home run was a big hit in the ratings in the City by the Bay. William Houston of the Toronto Globe and Mail has praise for both FSN’s Duane Kuiper and […]
