2024 Sports Media Stories Of The Year With Mike Gill And Ken Fang Of Awful Announcing | LWOS Media Podcast
Update: 2024-12-31
Description
It's our final show of 2024, as we recap the sports media stories of 2024 with hosts T.J. Rives and Mike Gill being joined by Ken Fang of Awful Announcing to go over it all on the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast."
The guys discuss:
The passing of CBS Sports legend Greg Gumbel to Cancer at age 78 on Friday. The panel talks about his amazing career with all of his highest level assignments and you'll also hear from Gumbel in his own words on covering "Selection Sunday" for CBS' NCAA Tournament reveal show and also replacing the legendary Brent Musberger on "The NFL Today" back in 1990, as well.
The impact of Caitlin Clark's massive popularity for the women's NCAA season, her record breaking year and the tourney. And, then, just weeks later she joined the WNBA for her smashing rookie season.
The NBA's new massive TV deals with NBC and Amazon despite lesser audience numbers. And, what about the surging of big time sports on streaming services and the growing power of Amazon Prime, Netflix and others in streaming sports?
What about Tom Brady in the Fox NFL #1 booth and has he improved as the season has gone on? There is spirited debate about it.
And, what NFL reporter deserves credit for arguably the biggest sports news scoop of the year in Golf? Yes, ESPN's Jeff Darlington was on scene exclusively in the early morning hours at the May PGA Championship in Louisville, as world #1 player Scottie Scheffler was arrested by Louisville police in a massive overreaction to him not following traffic instructions turning into the golf course. His reporting was fantastic and exclusive and the gusys discuss that too.
It's all part of the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast" final show of 2024 and make sure for all of our content in the new year to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.
