Three Things I Learned About the Sports World This Weekend

One. Jim Harbaugh's personality chafes people even more behind the scenes than it does on the sidelines (but who will replace him?).

Two. Gino Smith is worse than the Jets every imagined.

Three. The Royals showed the Angels that you can't buy moxie.

It Seems As If the Los Angeles Angels Clinched Their Division, Then Curled into a Ball and Died

I guess the Angels were tired. After clinching their division, they went into relax mode. And their relaxed state become this scary sort of catonic frozen state. Their manager Mike Sciosia wasn't able to defrost them in time. It looks like it could be too late.

Colin Cowherd: Stories of Domestic Violence in the NFL Are Not Going Away

In Colin Cowherd's ESPN radio opening segment, he said domestic violence stories in the NFL are unique to the NFL. You won't hear about them as much in other sports. Why? Because violent men are attracted to the violent game of football. Combine that with social media, video, and camera phones and you've got "the new reality" in which domestic abuse from NFL players "is not going away."

I Wasn't Crazy After All: Those Were 49er Fans Cheering at Dallas Stadium

While I do find it hard to take Jim Harbaugh's facial expressions, I'm still a lifelong 49er fan, so yesterday as I watched the game, I heard a lot of cheering whenever good things happened to my team. Isn't this game in Dallas? I kept asking myself. Am I crazy or is this a Dallas home game?

Colin Cowherd mentioned the same thing this morning on his ESPN show. There were a lot of 49er fans at that Dallas game. So I'm not crazy, at least on this point, after all.

Jim Rome Now on 980 AM

Thanks, Gary:

KFWB 980 has switched from a news/talk format to a sports format (CBS
Sports Network). Jim Rome is on from 9 AM - Noon daily.

Their signal is pretty weak at my location in Simi Valley but may be
better for you in Torrance. Their transmitter is a little east of Dodger
Stadium.

Sports Talk Radio Dies Between February and August

A few mornings ago, Colin Cowherd of ESPN got candid about the sports radio business, explaining that all sports broadcasters lose 50% of their listeners between the Super Bowl and early August when college football and NFL start to heat up.

Bottomline: Sports talk radio is driven by football. The other sports just don't have the potency.

Reggie Miller Back on Dan Patrick Is Nice But Hardly a "Big Announcement"

Because I'm a Dan Patrick fan, I'll forgive him for the over-hype of the "big announcement," which amounted to saying that Reggie Miller will be back on the show on Mondays. Nice news, but hardly worth the hype.
