  • Andy, wrong again.

    Steve, love every bit of your shows even the shows with Andy Pollin.

    Wrong again Andy once again talked so confidently about what he is in fact dead wrong about regarding Travis Kelce’s post football media aspirations by declaring that only Fox representatives were in attendance at Kelce and Taylor Swifts wedding. No one from CBS, and specifically Jim Nantz were at that wedding, said Andy.

    Not only was Jim Nantz at the wedding but Nantz sat in the first row at the service. Was I there, no. ... more

  • The Best

    Been listening to Czabe since he was in Charlotte, have tried to follow him “up and down the dial” throughout the years. Has always had his own fresh opinion on sports, and he makes no apologies for it. Great featured guests: #1 Notorious Jay ( where is he?), #2 Good enough Andy & #3 Scott & Solly. Thank you Czabe for always bringing the four seamer.

  • A Nugget in the Slop of Sports Commentary

    I have listed to Steve on and off since I got XM radio to help with my (for me) longish commute back and forth to work. He was part of The First Team I believe back then. I found his take on sports, society, and pop culture to be refreshing. Especially compared to the homogenized offerings at ESPN at the time. I think what I like about Steve is that he says what he thinks. In a corporate sports world he’s not going to get the notoriety and respect he truly does. Because he’s his own man. Thanks ... more

USA Sends Bosnia Packing, Despite Dicey Red Card
Q: What did you think about the production and announcers' handling of Balogun's situation and the broadcast's depth of explanation?
We felt the production was strong overall, but the studio and announcers sometimes avoided spoon-feeding the audience, leading to gaps in crucial game-state explanations like Balogun's suspension and what it means for the next match.

Q: What drew you to write about the 1989 Orioles and this particular season?
