FSR

Do they have a website? I did Yahoo search and one didn't come up, just atricles containing the words. I did a search within foxsports.com and the same thing came up.....

You have to go down to the bottom left of the foxsports.com page to find a tab that says "Radio". It's just a single page offshoot of the site, nothing like you'd think a radio network would have. Even small market radio stations have better sites.

It is hard for me to believe that a national sports network like FSR doesn't stream their programming online (except for what you can find from various FSR affiliates).

If the FSR national network does stream its' content from some website - I haven't seen it yet.

With the large number of people sitting at their computers from 9 to 5, 5 days a week, listening to online music, talk shows, and podcasts - you'd think it would be a no-brainer that such a big national sports network would stream their content online, as well.

I'm not talking some huge major website upgrade here, but add FSR streaming audio and link to some of the latest sports news stories (from Yahoo! Sports or somewhere else); maybe even throw in a couple online sports ads (to raise revenue for the website) - and you actually have a real website for a national radio network.

Seems sort of obvious to me.

Of course, Fox doesn't own the network: it's a licensing deal with Premier Radio. Perhaps Fox is expecting Premier to come up with a website.

...until then, I may have to find a site that airs "Game Time Live", since the Animal dropped it to allow Scott Ledger (formerly of now-defunct Classic Rocker Thunder 103.5, WTBT) to hear himself talk for three hours, and that show is more non-sports than anything! Maybe I'll just get XM.

True, I'd be fine with Premier streaming it instead of FSR (although I don't see why both Premier and FSR couldn't both stream it).

If FSR is expecting Premier to put up a website of FSR streaming audio - they've been waiting an awefully long time, with zero results.

With the increasing number of people sitting at computers all work day long (i.e. the growth of online radio) - I just can't believe FSR and Premier are passing up on these potential listeners.

Of course, Premier's prime sports product, Jim Rome, hasn't had his site updated in years.

Of course Romey hasn't updated his shtick in years, either.

When you garner the kind of loyal, national following that JR has, combined with good ratings numbers, if it isn't broke, don't mess with it!

FSR needs its own higher-profile website with streaming. They're a good network and have, at times, given ESPN Radio a run for their money.

Come to think about it, how come FSR doesn't list individual affiliates? ESPN Radio does this, to the point of even listing which affiliates air which shows. I notice Sporting News Radio's site is even more bare than FSR's.
