On our latest edition of the show, host T.J. Rives and Jon Lewis of SportsMediaWatch.com return to go over the latest in Sports Media news and ratings, etc.
First, the guys talk the conclusion of the Wimbledon tennis tournament. Did the controversy over Australian Nick Kyrgios’ behavior fuel some better numbers for the men’s final for ESPN? Or is the total lack of American presence in the men’s and women’s semis or championships always a recipe for bad audience?
Next, where will the NFL’s “Sunday Ticket” pay-per-view package end up airing this Fall? Jon has some insight and the discussion centers on whether streaming, the NFL Redzone and social media with highlights have greatly diminished the importance of Sunday Ticket.
Plus, the guys discuss the ratings for recent events like the WNBA All-Star Game and the NHL Draft.
Finally, some “love it or leave it?” includes talking Tiger Woods and the British Open on NBC this weekend, remembering Miami sports radio legend and former ESPN gambling/information personality Hank “The Hammer” Goldberg and more.
