Are You Ready for some Football?
Today is the opening day of the 2004 NFL season. Oh yeah. Every year, I join the football pool at work. One year, I won over $900 from winning the pool. Of course, the guys at work hadn’t realized how much of a sports freak I am. At the time, I was listening to sports talk radio 24/7. They had no chance. Then I think they thought it was a fluke. Well, the next season, I tied for second place and won about $300. But last season, I was really uneven. I only won $100 the whole season. A major change in the San Diego sports radio market (damn Clear Channel, yet again) and the crappy signal that ESPN 800 transmits in SD made it nearly impossible for me to listen to all the sports talk that I love.
Thanks to John Lynch and the Mighty 1090, it’s on again. Sure, Scott and BR are total homers and I can’t stand Philly Billy. But Scott and BR make me laugh and when they aren’t talking about the Chargers, they actually have good opinions. I also stream ESPN radio - Mike and Mike in the morning are really good. And of course, there’s Romey. He’s the reason why I got addicted to sports radio in the first place.
