We are back wiith another edition of the show looking at sports media in the U.S. and beyond with the "Last Word on Sports Media Podcast."
Host T.J. Rives is ready to go with takes on the horrible officiating in the AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Chiefs and the Texans last Saturday and most importantly, why Troy Aikman and Joe Buck of ESPN should be commended for calling out the awfful calls.
Plus, he has more on the games from last weekend that have now led to the Eagles hosting the Commanders and yet another Chiefs vs. Bills playoff rematch.
Then, there's the talk of the passing of baseball broadcasting and "Major League" movie legend Bob Uecker at age 90 late last week. The amazing career arc of the hilarious "Ueck" took him to the Milwaukee Brewers broadcasts but also an ABC 80s sitcom ("Mr. Belvedere") and of course, as the fictious "Harry Doyle" calling the ficitional Indians run to the playoffs in the movies.
Also, T.J. remembers the voice of the Navy Midshipmen football, Pete Medhurst, who also passed away earlier this week.
Next,, he welcomes distinguished NFL national writer Jason Cole to go over the playoffs from last weekend, Buck and Aikman's work about the refs, is Tom Brady better on Fox headed to calling the Superbowl and what about Jason's participation in the Pro Football Hall of Fame voting, too?
