The Lions beat writer at the Detroit Free Press, Dave Birkett, is low key pro-players. He recently said Calvin Johnson is right to be miffed about the Lions taking back 300 grand of signing bonus. And he always stands up for players getting the max money they can from the team independent of cap space and the like.

The deal is that Disney is getting everything except for the Fox Network, the Fox lot, some tv stations, Fox News, fox business, and Fox Sports (but the RSN's are included).

Speaking of Papi appreciation. Ken Tremendous wrote a piece about The Lebatard Show for Slate. As you might expect, it's good. Though there is one hell of a correction.quote:*Correction, April 13, 2018: This story originally misidentified the ocean that’s visible from the Clevelander Hotel. It’s the Atlantic, not the Pacific.

AsInHowe posted:When the Red Wings and Tigers were on WJR, one of the most powerful stations in the country, they used to send out congratulations and tracking cards to people that wrote in to say that they listened from really far away. I remember my dad listening to Wings games on JR when we were visiting family in Connecticut. And conversely he'd sit in the car to listen to the Red Sox at home in Michigan since it had better reception than the radio in the house.

MourningView posted:there are empty seats at the start of Dodger games because they all started at like 5 pm local time or earlier and it's maybe just slightly harder to get places on time in loving Los Angeles than it is in Milwaukee. It's not because people don't care about the Dodgers My eastern time zone mind recoils at the thought of game 3 having a 7pm local start time.

Sash! posted:Is that really a thing? Are we talking walking when they're walked instead of running to first after a walk? Its important to remember that most broadcasters actually hate the sport of baseball and anything that prolongs their stay at the ballpark even a picosecond longer than they think it should pisses them off.

Asking Berman to carry the broadcast the way Joe Castig does is a reach, but they probably, hopefully won't. I'm guessing it's mostly going to be Castig/Impemba in the booth

And that was mostly because Al Michaels didn't want to move to ESPN along with Monday Night Football since that would mean giving up calling the Super Bowl.
