WEEI TV ( Overkill )

WEEI is everywhere ! WEEI is on every radio signal in New England and now on T.V. ( Baseball show on Comcast sportnet ). Whats next , D&C and The Big Show on T.V. ? Maybe WEEI ( Entercom) should buy The Boston Globe ( WEEI is loving the broke Globe mess ). I love WEEI but this is overkill like Soulja Boy " Kiss me thru the Phone " on JAMN 94.5 .

I think the Baseball Show was good today on both WEEI and CSN.
 
I thought the sound was so so on the radio, clearly they are more concerned with the mix for TV. But the production on the TV side is pretty good.

And yes, Big Show will be next, this is a test.....it was part of the Big O's contract that TV would be an option. If this test goes well I bet the Big Show will be on CSN daily by late summer/early fall (once his 2 month vacation is over).

It makes sense, CSN has nothing good on during the day/early on weekends, why not give people a chance to "watch" the show too.

It works for ESPN2 and Mike and Mike. In fact I like watching the show on TV more than on the radio I think (though that could be all the static on 890).

At this point, with the growth of WEEI and everyone else scaling back, I wouldn't be that surprised if they bought the globe, or at least swept in and bought the online assets and/or their share of the Sox/Fenway/Nesn.
 
I thought the sound was lousy. It sounded like they did the show inside a tunnel. The braying jackass host didn't help any by constantly screaming into the mic. They also had a lot more commercial breaks instead of the long blocks.

I detest Felger, but I'll give him (or his call screener) credit for keeping the usual suspects off the air. It's nice not to hear Frank from Gloucester, Danny from Quincy, Tony from Bridgewater, Steve from Fall River and the rest of the morons.

Another good example is Mike & The Mad Dog (Now just Mike Francessa) simulcasting on WFAN in New York and also on YES Network. In fact, the Big SHow often refers to Francessa on YES.
