A scene from the World Baseball Classic accompanied by a quote from the linked article that reads "We turn the TV on for the U.S. versus the world in a sport we like with players we know. Patriotism be damned, if you don't have the star power, we aren't interested."
Ratings for Olympic hockey and the WBC were huge. Does that mean we're about to see more made for TV events where Team USA plays other countries? Maybe even America vs. the World? I think it would be terrible business,. Check out my new column for @awfulannouncing.bsky.social

I wrote something about sports radio and recent criticisms from its former stars. My feelings haven't changed, but it's very different writing about this for the
@awfulannouncing.bsky.social audience than for the Barrett Media audience. Tell me what you think.

I still think a playoff is better than the alternative for college football, however maybe it’s time to acknowledge that the CFP has had shitty ramifications for the sport. Ducking hard regular season games is indefensible. Check out my new column for @awfulannouncing.bsky.social.
Who will play next year's Super Bowl halftime show? I put together a list of 10 realistic possibilities for
@awfulannouncing.bsky.social based on what we know to expect from the NFL.

Hell yeah
The USA 250 patches look like absolute shit. They look like they came straight from wal-mart.

A hill I’m happy to die on: voting a team owner into the HOF makes you a loser. My column for @awfulannouncing.bsky.social: t.co/bewbsiwCsT
Cathrine O’Hara had a truly extraordinary career. How many actresses have a thriving 40-year career AND THEN are presented with what will become their signature role?
Bill Belichick will get into the football HOF next year. This is so much less egregious than Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens being kept out of the baseball HOF.
I wrote a little something for @awfulannouncing.bsky.social this week about Lane Kiffin's very stupid click addiction. dlvr.it/TQZMX2
I was murdered
If he dies, he dies
Tom Brady the QB getting hit vs Tom Brady the announcer when someone else gets hit
I get loving it when you were a kid. I had a healthy inventory of Masters of the Universe toys, but I cannot stomach this shit at 44. Nostalgia ain’t that strong.
Wait, there's a He-Man movie? In 2026? Who for?
Bert Kreischer? Is CBS broke?
Breakout star of this college football season.
Mendoza is saying the fuck out of that prayer
I just hope both teams lose and no one has fun.
7, 8 bucks?
I quit gambling before last year because the novelty/fun had worn off but seeing that there’s already an 8.5 win total for the Giants that you can bet on is tempting. That number is at least 2 too high!
I can’t quite articulate this fully, but we shouldn’t have to listen to a cop riding a horse. Like, come on. Get the fuck out of here!
This is a good book. It’s called Blank Space by W. David Marx.
Want to read an excellent book that’s kinda depressing but does a good job of explaining why everything kinda sucks now?
Oh, on that we agree. I just think comparing Sankey and the SEC to the tobacco lobby is a bit excessive. Sports are great because they do not matter that much.
And thank you for reading and commenting. I appreciate your time and interest.
Chad, with all due respect, this is a dumb fucking comparison.
Check out my new @awfulannouncing.bsky.social column!
Finebaum, SAS and now Michelle Tafoya. Why are so many sports media stars toying with a political career? I’ve got a new column up today @awfulannouncing.bsky.social!
Theory: Mark Zuckerberg is an idiot who’s bad at everything.
If you take anything away from the Puff doc on Netflix, it’s that courtroom sketch artists are mean as shit.
