Coach what bar were you in? My firehouse is in Hell's KitchenTotally different situation for me on Sunday afternoon. Was in New York City to see the opening of "Finding Neverland". Watched the afternoon game at a sports bar in Hell's Kitchen. A "regular" sports know-it-all asked WHY we wanted to watch UConn lose when "everyone" knows that they haven't been any good for the last 5 years." My wife immediately put him in his place, educating him that UConn was barred 2 year's ago & won the National Championship last season? The "expert" was clueless.
If a radio show ends up being produced. There should also be an easily accessible on-demand feature.
I agree, but i'm the opposite. I listen to the radio at home, not in the car.This. I'm not going out of my way to listen to a radio show. I listen to the radio when I'm in my car.

I've mostly turned away from ESPN radio, unless I've downloaded a fantasy baseball/football or Bill Simmons podcast. Too many commercials and too little listener participation. I live in Eastern CT and work out of SE CT so I get WEEI my entire commute, though about half the time, I have a podcast (those listed above or comedy) or on-demand radio chambered and ready to go.I listen to ESPN radio during both commutes (door to door is roughly 1 hour). Fan of Mike & Mike in the morning, but the Rob Dibble show is terrible and I can't stand listening to it. Now I stream LeBatard's show during the evening commute.
If we had a station committed to UConn sports, I'd gladly listen to that in a heartbeat

Right around the corner from my firehouse...they are a big NFL, Red Sox, and English Premier league place. Bartenders and table servers are kind of aloof, and usually you wait for another beer. Mr Bigg's right across the Street is the only bar in that neighborhood that advertises college sports..they hang Rutgers banners on football Saturdays (we used to go there all the time...then stopped when the Rutty banners came out). We now either go to Dalton's which is up on 9th Ave or McMenamins which is on 10th between 42 & 43. Much better about what's on tv sports wise...both places have much better wings than Landsdown Road.Landsdown Road.
