They are followed by Chad Finn, the sports media writer for the Boston Globe.

Finn discusses Sunday Night Baseball and why so many viewers are expressing displeasure with the broadcast; the changes on the morning show at WEEI Radio in Boston; how the Celtics will look with Kemba Walker and without Al Horford and much more.
