Over on Metsblog Matt had danced around this idea a few times..I wonder if it would work. I bet it would…my reservation was “what would you walk about all day” but I thought the same thing in 1987 about sports-talk. During the season it would be easy…this week it’s easy….December might be hard. Maybe the Mets could overpay some former bloggers.
The HD channel features Pittsburgh area native Steve Mears as host of a daily show, “Penguins Live,†from 9:30 a.m.- 12 noon each weekday during the season. Mears, 29, spent the last three seasons as the radio play-by-play voice for the New York Islanders. A native of Murrysville and a graduate of Franklin Regional High School, Mears grew up as a Penguins fan, idolizing Mario Lemieux and Mike Lange.

It's an interesting concept. I wonder if WFAN would have something to say about it since they own the Mets radio rights. But it could work. They could pick up some of the internet radio shows like "7 Train To Shea", and maybe add "This Moment In History with Greg Prince" and the "Mets Police Blotter". Have it run with fans in mind instead of the professional talkies.
