THE QUESTIONS
How Jeff Passan could make the move from MLB insider to NBA insider and replace Woj? Shams Charania is the other leading candidate, but The Athletic wants to keep him. What happened with Zach Lowe? Chris Haynes also in free agency merry-go-round.
How could Netflix ask for Tom Brady to call its Christmas Day game? What is going on with the streamer? Should networks let announcers work for Netflix? Ian Eagle, Noah Eagle, Greg Olsen and Nate Burleson in play.
How do we rank the MLB playoff game-callers? Joe Davis to Brian Anderson to Karl Ravech to Bob Costas to Boog Sciambi. Plus, Joe Buck’s legacy.
What do we think of Friday night college football? What is the next window TV should think about?
The future of Sports Media presented by WSC Sports: What does the WNBA need to do from a media perspective to go to the next level? Who is right in the Christine Brennan-WNBAPA kerfuffle?
You make the call: Benetti on Tigers when they moved one game from clinching playoff spot. How does it rate?
YOUR QUESTIONS
Is it the sports media who unimaginatively continually ask the thought provoking question, “Can you take us through this play?” Scott Fisher on X.
