sports on the radio

so i'm a listener of espn radio and the local chicago sports station 670 the score. i don't listen to them all the time, but i've been listening to them pretty often. during the stanley cup (as some of you know i'm a huge hockey fan) the playoffs were barely talked about if at all. no matter what time i was listening to the radio stations. and after the kings won, it was never mentioned. i couldn't believe it. this is a big event for the sport and your not going to talk about it?! all the radio stations talked about was basketball and baseball. now don't get me wrong, i understand that both of them are much more popular then hockey in america, but still, there is a following of hockey here.

and now there is a new development regarding lance armstrong and his doping acusations (U.S. federal prosecutors closed a two-year criminal probe and now the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency has filed formal charges against him) and mike and mike in the morning (espn radio) didn't talk about it at all this morning. all they talked about was lebron james for the game he is playing tonight (the game isn't even played yet) and the perfect game that was pitched yesterday. again, a perfect game is big news and it should be talked about. but besides that, all i've been hearing about is lebron james and i'm just sick of it. let it go. either he will win or he won't. wait until either have happen and then analyze it.

a friend of mine was saying that the day after the kings won the cup on espn.com the front page had a picture of a boston player holding the cup and the article was about the contenders for next year. really?! let the kings live it up for at least a day. just one day.

so the point of this post is that i don't understand why sports radio stations (for i don't have tv and so can't complain about the tv shows - that's right i don't have a tv) don't talk about all sports. don't call it a sports show if your only going to talk about baseball/basketball. then call the shows the BB- sports show. hehe. get it; baseball/basketball sports show. so yeah. mainly this is a rant that sports shows should talk about all the sports that are out there: hockey/golf/tennis/soccer/rugby/baseball/basketball/volleyball.
