Last Word On Sports Media Podcast

It's the Thursday edition of the "daily" with some quick sports media info, ratings and takes from host T.J. Rives.
He goes over:
The debut of the "NBA on ESPN" for another year and yet another, lead analyst joining Mike Breen this season. Richard Jefferson made his debut with Breen and Doris Burke Wednesday night. T.J. has more on this.
Penn State is preparing to play Wisconsin in a Big Ten showdown on NBC Saturday night but there is controversy involving rape allegations and former players at the program and coach James Franklin acted immaturely at his news conference Wednesday and only "fanned the flames" of the controversy in doing so.
And, it's the Dodgers and the Yankees coming up in the 2024 World Series. How about the amazing audience these games used to get in the 1980s!?! Wait until you hear it.
