Re: The Sports Media Thread (sports on tv and radio)

This thread is a good idea. If it catches on i'll report anything from the couple or so sports media/business podcasts that I listen to.

Richard Dietsch's latest has an interview with Jamele Hill. Excellent interview if you haven't heard it yet.


North of the border, Sportsnet just turned 20 years old. It's the only network I can think of that came up later than its legacy competition and completely blew it out of the water. It took a long time though, The first 5 years it looked like it wasn't going to make it as CTV went off and bought TSN and they were without a backer. It took Ted Rogers buying the Blue Jays and then Sportsnet to really kick things in gear. Now Sportsnet is easily the #1 sports TV/media brand in Canada.
