The news, by in large, is a waste of time. Hell, he only reason I watch (and stupidly so) is for the weather...and they delay that sh*t so you'll watch the rest of the garbage.

I remember growing up when Sports (specifically sunday nights) section of the news was awesome; a good 10 minues or so (or so it seemed) of 'coverage'. Now, the "Sports" segment is about 2 minutes.

oh well; I hope Boal get land somewhere; maybe replace Klinksgale as KK sidekick.

Yea, the internet + cable tv has killed local sports segments.

yep pretty much.

I remember growing up looking forward to staying up 'late' to watch the "Sports Machine with George Michael" (at least I think that's what his name was lol); it was awesome!

Then we got cable for the first time; I can't remember how old I was...maybe like 10?....and watched ESPN. Wow.

I fell in love with NFL Primetime, or it's early version...I couldn't belive there was an HOUR LONG show dedicated to recapping the sports of the day!

Oh well. Hopefully Frank gets a gig somewhere locally. Hell, he may just pack it up.
