NBC Sports Radio Network Coming in Sept.

Well... CBS isn't the only one offering sports radio, because it seems NBC is getting in the game via Dial Global.

I gather KCAA in San Bernardino will carry this?

Somehow I am getting a feeling this may not be carried on an L.A. station.

The NBC Sports Network on television hasn't quite been welcomed with open arms.

yeah, from the folks that essentially blacked out two games of the Stanley Cup in Los Angeles.

It's only a travesty when your team is in the Stanley Cup Finals and some games are forced cable. Granted, not everyone can get NBCSN (err Versus, er OLN) even though the channel has been around in some inception for many years, blame your cable carrier for that. Games 2 & 3 of the SCF on cable is nothing new. ABC/ESPN did it when they had the NHL. FOX would have if their FOX Sports Net regionals had a bigger footprint.

If NHL television ratings were a skyrocketing success then this wouldn't happen. Unfortunately, hockey is a fourth tier sport in the United States and this likely won't change. It is what it is.
