Needless to say, I'm sure some of you are … Continue reading An Ode to Sports Media Musings

Sports Media Musings: Andy Gresh Needs a Hug, Holley & Felger Crushin’ It, Minihane/RapSheet/Klosterman Deliver
Final papers in grad school are the bane of my existence. In the journalism world, they have these weird concepts called "sources" and "quotes." And you have to "attribute" everything. Right now I'm in the middle of a paper on concussions in high school athletics. You wouldn't believe it, but Athletic Directors aren't exactly excited … Continue reading Sports Media Musings: Andy Gresh Needs a Hug, Holley & Felger Crushin’ It, Minihane/RapSheet/Klosterman Deliver

A Wednesday Catchup
Out of commission yesterday, apparently I missed a number of noteworthy items. CBS and NBC have been wrestling over the Patriots/Broncos game on December 18th.
