We’ve reached podcast edition 123 for Sports Media Weekly.
Keith Thibault of Sports Media Journal and I talk about some of the sports media news including:
- NASCAR staying on Fox.
- Fox creating Fox Sports 1 on cable.
- Formula 1 leaving Fox Sports Media Group and heading to NBC/NBC Sports Network.
- Joe Buck’s NFL/MLB doubleheader on Sunday.
- The Dan Patrick Show TV simulcast leaving Fox Sports Net apparently for NBC Sports Network.
- And the NFL in London plus Beyoncé performing the Super Bowl XLVII Halftime Show.
Our guest is Greg Wyshynski of Puck Daddy at Yahoo Sports.
With Greg, Keith and I talked about the latest developments in the NHL lockout including the latest proposal from the league to the Players Association. Greg mentioned how this could affect the season and how NHLPA Executive Director Donald Fehr would take the offer.
Greg talked about ESPN2’s presentation of the KHL last week and how NBC Sports Network is coping without the NHL.
I then asked Greg about his experience at Blogs with Balls 5 in Toronto earlier this month.
