In a pretty big development, the NBC Sports Group is in the process of completing a deal that will carry next year's Winter Paralympic Games, live from Sochi. This will be the first time these games are shown live in the United States. This deal includes upwards of 50 hours of live footage from these games, which is a huge increase from the just 5.5 hours of tape delayed footage from the last games.
I think it will be very interesting to see what the ratings are like from these broadcasts. These are world class athletes in their own way. I know I will definitely watch this and give it a shot, as I think it could be very interesting. Will you watch it?
On October 30th, the Sacramento Kings will tip off their "new" era against the Denver Nuggets. However during this broadcast the local news station, who is doing the broadcast of the game will include no commercials, yes you read that right, zero commercials. Every sports watchers dream, an interruption free broadcast of a sporting event. The Kings, who were as good as gone from Sacramento are now in full re-build mode. Their newest addition being part owner Shaquille O'Neal. With plenty of young talent, a new rejuvenated fan base, and ownership that wants to win, there are signs of a bright future in Sacramento.
My name is Gino Masterani and I am currently a Sophomore at Slippery Rock University and a Sport Management Major. I am an Intern on the Football Team up here, so that is where most of my time goes. I am from Sewickley, PA, about 45 minutes from campus here in Slippery Rock. I am an only child coming from a relatively big Italian family. While at home and not in school, I enjoy just hanging out with my friends as much as possible and being active.
This blog will consist of plenty of sports informations and facts, but certainly a little biased opinion, but how could you not expect that?
